Eddie, those kids who used to shovel were us - and that was a long time ago, amigo...

Besides, if you think a kid is gonna go out and actually work shoveling when he can stay inside with PlayStation...pfftttt

I've got my sidewalk down to bare pavement, sanded & salted...

THe tale of the tape is almost 19" in the lee of the house, no drifts

My bride is making a chourico omelet right now while I take a break and have my coffee...

Hey, who knows, it's kinda romantic, maybe with the blizzard and all I can play Manwell, the lusty Portuguese gardener and she can be Mrs Smithington, the bored Newport socialite...just like we used to...

Hey, it could happen, ya know...
"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

My driveway is barely 3 car lengths long.
A kid with a snow blower wanted $60 to do the driveway and 30 ft of side walk.
Told him I will take 5 aspirin and do it myself.
May fortune favor the foolish....

My friends and I used to make a killing shoveling driveways when we were kids. We had one lady we would always hit up first. She would always give us $120+ to clean up her driveway. Also work is cancelled!!! Yeah! Doesnt matter really though as my road still has 2ft of snow!

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
