    Snow Rage

    Any of you either dealing with, or keeping track of, how how bad the winter has been in the North East? I can't remember a worse winter in my adult life. Not just the all time record snow (and more coming today...) but very cold temps for weeks on end. The entire city of Boston essentially at a total stop. I was supposed to go to FL, but it was not happening fast enough for me, so I grabbed a ticket to Panama last minute and I'm out of here.


    Man attacks plow driver with shovel in Somerville, police say

    A Somerville man was arrested Sunday on charges that he attacked a snow plow driver with a shovel, police said.

    The man, who has not been identified, attacked the driver and his plow while wielding a shovel on Dickinson Street around 1 p.m., said Somerville Police Lieutenant James Rooney.

    The plow driver was injured but did not go to the hospital, Rooney said.

    “This is extraordinary circumstances with all the snow,” Rooney said. “People need to work together, not be fighting with the people who are trying to clear their street.”

    The man is to be arraigned in Somerville District Court on Tuesday, Rooney said. He is charged with assault and battery with a dangerous weapon and malicious destruction of property over $250.

    The weather pic he posted is of Florida, not Panama. Panama doesn't get anywhere near that cool....ever! (unless your up in the mountains near Costa Rica)

    My wife & I were watching the news the other night and we even commented with a "Holy Crap" as they were showing all the snow out east. We're in WI and we get a fair share of cold & snow.
    That said, I couldn't imagine NOT having four seasons. I love snow to the point where I wish we'd get even more.
    I think what Euro posted above would suck to live in and it'd bore me. (He also has 5 G19s & that'd bore me too).

    I'll take summer and fall. Spring is too "iffy" and winter flat-out sucks balls (I hate the cold, and I'm originally from Ohio). Yeah, 95 degrees with matching humidity sucks too but if given the choice between that and 20 degrees, well......bring on the shorts!

    You said "those are cold temps for Panama" so I thought you might have glanced at what Euro posted and thought it was Panama. Yeah, I know you have a place there and we've talked before (I spent 3 years there in the Army).

    Panama actually sounds pretty good right now!

    Here in Minnesota, we like the snow...the more the better. This year has been so sucky for snowfall amounts that my buddies and I had to go to Montana to find enough to ride.
