When we had about 2 inches of snow on the roads down here, everyone quite literally drove at about 5 miles per hour. Its because we are so unused to doing the drive, its mad. It used to be different. My mum was used to driving in about 8 inches of snow one summer, and she did it in a falling apart Renault 5

You got 8" of snow in the summer?

why the hell did i say summer? i must have been thinking of something completely unrelated. It was a coupla decades back, thats what i meant. One year or something.

I am loosing it.

I once saw it snow briefly in May of junior year of high school. Right outside my ROTC class' windows. It was... interesting, to say the least.

And I now have a migraine...

Brewed a lovely Scotch Ale on Superbowl Sunday, and I'm getting ready to bottle it, likely on Tuesday. The anticipation is killing me =P

Do you lager your beers for a few weeks after bottling them? I always did - even the hoppy ales like my IPA's - and I find that it really mellows out the flavor.

That happenned to me last year, the wierd thing was that it was like 65*F out. The snow would fall, and then melt into water a few meters above the ground. It was wierd.

Hi everyone.

In current news...
Remember that ticket I got early in the year. Well, they never got the check.
And school is a pain; my Technical Drawing homework this week took ~six hours to complete. And my hand hated my afterwards.
And I got stuck my first time last week, parallel parking on frozen slush is a bad idea. So is trying to park at 7AM when the sun is straight ahead. Also got myself out in a minute. No problem.

And so ends the Stitch report.

Hmm, cool. I'm not sure if the snow ever touched down or not. It just blew around a bit.

Once they're bottled, I let them sit at about 60 degrees in the basement for a week or two, then refrigerate.

Well gang, Friday at work, one of the girls in my new department got fired for making personal phone calls, excessive absences, and tardiness. And I guess they won't be replacing her. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or bad thing. She'd been there for six years, and just got the axe out of nowhere.
