All right - first off, how does Ralph know my real name?  Must have been in
an earlier 15 minutes of life.

Anywho, there's a lot of sense in staying in snow country once you live
there - what else would you do with the snow shovel that gets loaded on the
moving van, cause you know it won't get left there...

- Panhandle

Ralph,  Having lived in Vermont, where snow is generally plentiful at the
proper season, I was quite perplexed when my cousin in California wrote one
Christmas that they had gone "up to see the snow."  We sure didn't have to
go anywhere but to the window to see more than enough of the stuff.  I
think "ohshitnotagain" is the perfect word for snow.  Ruth

If you grow up in sunny Cali-forn-eye-aaay,  like I did, you go visit it
for a weekend once when you're a little kid, and that's quite enough.  Or
it should be.  But noooooo, I was too smart, I had to come live in it with
the rest of these jerks who are too sluggish to get the hell out and live
in a decent place where there aren't any seasons.  We don't need no
stinkin' seasons.
