I went when I was really young. I think I mainly visited resorts and amusement parks.
I has snow!

Hey Switch… I was talking to someone from the midwest yesterday and telling them I had a stromboli for lunch. They were like “a what?!?” :-D ~ZP
-
Is a stromboni like a Zamboni? 8-)
-
Stromboli is an AWESOME food…
There are two versions…
one with marinara sauce inside, and the TRUE version w/ marinara on the side as an optional dip (for those who wish to disgrace the stromboli). -
@ncscswitch:
At least 3-6 inches is doable (even if it is not pure pleasure).
But 23" inches is PAINFUL
:evil:
Did you really have to do that joke twice? :-P
-
it was -30 degrees this morning, with wind chill factored in. so it was cold and 20 mph winds. why?
-
Just to prove I can see the future, I am predicting that Spring will begin precisely at 12:00AM on March 21st 2008.
Anyone care to argue?
-
I will.
Spring officially begins with the Vernal Equinox.
That occurs this year on March 20 at 5:48 UT (Greenwich Mean)
-
Switch just owned the shit out of you Jen. So much for predicting the future. :lol: :lol: :lol:
-
Not according to the calendars printed. The calenders all list spring on the 21st of March.

Yeah and that is assuming you even know what the Spring Equinox is???
GG
-
Sure. The Equinox is when all the women and all the men of the village go have an orgy all night and no one can be turned down for sex, right?
-
Jen, I was asking M36 to see if he knew… And I think what you are referring to is popularly known as Woodstock '69…

Calendars typically show the first FULL day of Spring. But Spring itself is defined as begining with the Vernal Equinox.
As for the sex thing…
That is more often a good Eclectic Neo-Pagan gathering for Beltain (May 1st). So you are off by 1 in your Sabbat sequence on the orgy :-PThe Wheel of the Year:
Samhuin: October 31
Yule: approximately December 21
Imbolgc: February 2
Ostara: approximately March 21
Beltain: May 1 (Popularly portrayed as a sex holiday, though in reality to a lesser extent…)
Litha: approximately June 21
Lughnasadh: August 1 (generally the best “sex” holiday at a festival)
Mabon: approximately September 21 (another darn fine festival for getting laid) -

Yea, but I was born 8 years too late to even witness Summer of 69. 26 years too late to legally participate in it! (8 years + 18 years of life.)
And Switch, it’s meant as humor.
Anyway, the first FULL day of Spring then. Whatever. My calendar says March 21st. I go by my calendar, it’s government approved thus it must be 100% accurate and for my best interest! (It’s an Air Force calendar, thus, Government approved!)
-
Well, the Air Force (much as it pains me to say it) is TECHNICALLY WRONG!
(I am going to go cry after saying that…)

Technically, or literally?
:P (Hey, I like my desk blotter/air force calendar, it has a pretty F-22 on it and that ADORABLE new logo! I could cuddle with that all night! But then, the Air Force always was the cute and cuddly branch of the military. :) )
-
Yeah, I was going to say all the hippies around here celebrate Beltane as orgy time. Seems more like a fad than what was originally intended of that holiday.
-
Well Switch, I’ve got you beat. NC had snow in January. Mississippi has 5" of snow in March. Freakin’ MARCH! I should be wearing shorts in March.
For the record this is how the week has gone down here:
Sunday: 70’s
Monday and Tuesday: 40’s and below freezing at night.
Wednesday: 70’s again.
Thursday: back to below freezing
Friday: A white ChristmasWhatever you guys are doing to screw with the weather, just cut it out. I left my snow shovel and the rock salt back in Chicago for a reason.
-
Well, NC is FINALLY getting some rain… Raleigh’s reservoir is up like 3 feet this week… from 90 days of water, to over 200 days worth of water.
As for snow… last weekend I went to Pennsylvania (Duncansville, PA) for my mother’s retirement party. I had the “pleasure” of shoveling out her parking space while I was there… they had 6" of fresh snow the morning Angel and I arrived…
-
I remember those days. If you were in a hurry it was brush the lights, windows and the door handle dropping snow bombs on the people driving behind you all the way to work.
