I don't think so...and yeah Bulls eye!! Slingah
the pant legs were like starched stiff because they were frozen. there were no side walk plows then...you had to walk in the street and jump into the deep snow on the sidewalks to keep from being hit by a car...
one day i got hit though...  son of a bitch knew it because i jumped straight up and bounced off his wind sheild then rolled over the roof hit the trunk and then hit the ground....while i watched him not even slow down....

where I lived / they used the garbage trucks to plow >>.chains & all ......... and that was the best .hookying behind them .. usually they didn,t see ya & ya got a good ride . until ya got where ya wanted to be or they hit a descent size bare patch ;;
With the cars / they usually saw us .. or two many kids got on one car & we would either make it loose control or the ass end would swerve tossing asses in the snow drifts ;;
Plus we always had plenty od snow & ice before Christmas & I don,t remember one kid that didn,t hustle to make as much as they could snow shoveling .
I can remember hoping that what houses we got had snow shovels ...because sucked ........ usually they were spades or coal shovels & that took forever & when the snow got sticky .. you would do one shovel of snow & then have to knock the snow that stayed on the shovel .>>against a tree / but usuallY
it was the persons house foundation ><><><><><><

ya shovel snow  if they get off the computer or away from the gameboy or tv or any of the other stuff.
my brother calls me, he says, ya got all your milk and bread and food for 2 years for the big snowstorm of the week?  quick rush out to the stores to get that last slice of bread 
funny as hell, I guess that mentality does go back to the blizzard of 78 but I don't get it myself. it's just snow, deal with it.
Mike, ice can wreck your boat but boats are made to be in the water. if you are worried, get a bubbler working there for when it gets cold.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.
