Haha yer getting your snow now. Not a bad show but it won't last long.

koolkid · February 13th, 2008, 12:29 AM

I hope it does rain. This weather is terrible. One can barely walk because it's so slippery. Stupid snow...

SaRaJeVo-City · February 13th, 2008, 01:37 AM

Some wall street idiot was riding a razor and slipped into garbage cans by city hall and pace.

pi_malejana · February 13th, 2008, 05:28 AM

i think we got too much than what we asked for..

MrColombia · February 13th, 2008, 05:29 AM

This thread should be deleted because its bad luck jaja.

Im not very happy with the snow.

pi_malejana · February 13th, 2008, 05:34 AM

snow is a part of winter season, even before we were born snow has been falling here.. i know it can be annoying and deadly sometimes but its a part of a very delicate cycle and we chose to be part of that cycle..

MrColombia · February 13th, 2008, 06:16 AM

F...the cycle im using my rebate $$ to go to FLORIDA for a nice full week.

^ You hate snow, so you HOPE that it rains? Somehow rain is desirable now? Don't get some people...

The Urban Politician · February 13th, 2008, 05:42 PM

I hate rain.

Focus your hatred on rain. Why are we against snow here, people?

Rain soaks you. It also makes things slippery, just like snow. It gets you splashed. You have to use an umbrella. It floods the subway, thus disrupting service. Rain is not better than snow. Repeat after me: rain is not better than snow.

The sunbelt gets rain. Are we the sunbelt now? Are we not a northern, post-industrial city? For crying out loud!

nygirl · February 13th, 2008, 06:36 PM

I'm not against snow. It should fall between december 20th and 27th and then stop for the entire year. I'll take sunshine over rain and snow but I'll deal happily with all three./ Just no wind in the winter please.

pi_malejana · February 13th, 2008, 10:06 PM

why'd you chose that certain date??

anyway snow stays where it is unless it melts.. rain on the other hand "seeks its(water) own level" causing flash floods and all that..

redbaron_012 · February 14th, 2008, 12:26 AM

Maybe because it just looks cute for christmas.....? Fair enough...

Snow is just as slippery as rain is only that it stays longer where rain can dry out the next day. Just yesterday, there were roads where I could barely put on the brakes, so I had to use the emercency to stop my car. Also, I felt I was about to skid several times, but I was lucky I didn't. As a matter of fact, the driveway of the house I live in was so much covered in snow, and I had to drive real slow and make sure that I don't fall of the edge halfway there b/c of the steep hill right before the garage, b/c it would be very difficult to get the car back up from that slope.

Yeah, I prefer snow during the holiday months. Not now though...

Notice how it's much easier to walk now that most of the slush is gone. Sure, rain could make the day messy and all but in the end it washes the slush away and cleans the sidewalks. All is well...

***Xusein*** · February 14th, 2008, 07:03 AM

Rain is still better than the slushy mess that we got.

I only like the powdery kind of snow. That's all.

pi_malejana · February 14th, 2008, 08:56 PM

the last snow we got was powder..

***Xusein*** · February 15th, 2008, 04:55 AM

You mean that 0.01 inches of snow that you guys got last time?

pi_malejana · February 15th, 2008, 06:14 AM

nah.. the other one lol.. the other day, central park got 2 inches of snow, powder snow...

The Urban Politician · February 22nd, 2008, 05:14 PM

AHHHHH, YES....

Much, much better. Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow...
