I have shifting thoughts at times, but unless I'm clearly exasperated and/or disappointed for local snow prospects, how can you define that a meltdown?

Probably something like a cry of storm cancel 5-6 days out, that would qualify. Ajdos had a good one last winter I believe. Basically was the board equivalent of taking off all of your clothes and then running through a plate glass window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
