White Christmas

Dreaming of a white Christmas?
Well, you got it. Deal with the consequences.
And do the "Christian" thing, if you dare. Shovel an elderly person's driveway, stay off the road unless it's emergency so that PennDOT can do its thing, etc.
Have a merry one!

Thanks for the tips. Now please excuse me while I flush the down the toilet!

Thanks Gordy! I really had no intention to travel today, but Monday, now that is another big problem. I have a driveway approx. 175' long, but the snowblower does not work... Where are all the young kids that want to make a few bucks? Not in my neighborhood!
What I did see on TV was the "Odd Couple" James Carville, Dem. Strategist and Mary Matalein, Rep. Strategist (husband and wife). Please tell me how these two can stay in the same house let alone have children together. ODD! YOU BET!

A bright Sunday Morning and the whole neighborhood is snowed in. A young fellow came knocking on our door and said "Would you like your driveway cleared?" He was not looking to make money, he has always volunteered to help us - could be our age - but it is thoughtful and we appreciate it. Merry Christmas all Volunteers and Good Neighbors!

Gordon may be trying hard to be a sarcastic lout (even though we all know he is a good egg deep down), but he is dead right. We have the White Christmas we want. Now we need to use it wisely. Be safe! Be alive when you arrive!

Looks like it turned to be a Wet Christmas.
Gordy, can you get one of your talented brethren to write that song for us?

Ian should take a hike! Or better yet, flush his head in his toilet.

We helped others with getting rid of the snow during this last blizzard, even hauling it away to an open area.
