I usually don't post this kind of stuff, but this one really tickled my funny bone, especially so when I look out at the blanket of snow everywhere.

Hi David,
ReplyDeleteThis is a lot of snow.
Here in the Netherlands is no snow yet to find.
Yep! It's an American character trait that I noticed in Colorado after a sudden snow! I guess if you've never witnessed it, you might not get the point. Thank you David. I'm grinning from ear to ear!
ReplyDeleteThey seemed to have changed our long-range weather forecast for UK from "the coldest winter for 100 years" to "the wettest winter for 100 years". In many ways (but not all) I'd prefer the original. Time will tell !
Whahahahahaha ..... sometimes you can do this really a time in between because he is really fun hahahahaha ......
ReplyDeleteIs that the rivalry between USA and Canada coming to the fore? Bad luck with the snow but don't send it this way please.
