Can't argue against youth being a factor. I also suspect some flu hit harder than others.

Don't worry Razor. You know the guy that just got three and a half feet of snow is gonna give you crap about your snow accumulation.

I don't think so.
You're missing the point. Totally.

Any athlete can push themselves to keep up with those that have more abilities than them. There's always someone who is faster than you. If you push it hard enough, you can stick with them. You will get stronger for doing that. But everyone has their limits, both physical and mental. The best athletes know their limits and know when to push them to the max. That's why the strongest athletes don't always win the race.

It's pretty windy on our little hill too. It could be worse, you could be in Minnesota.

Watched Inception. It's an interesting movie. It is thought-provoking, which is more than I can say for many films.

Weather says 1-3" possible here. I almost always go with the "under" on the snow accumulation forecasts. They typically err on the snowy side just to cover their butts should we get hit with a worst case scenario.

Meh. I lived there for 6 years. 22" is a lot, but they're used to a lot of snow.

Our roof is leaking. It has been raining, so it was wet. If that has turned to snow, that means things outside will freeze. If we get a lot of snow, fixing things will be harder (more expensive), and might have to be re-done when thawed. A complete re-roof is out of the question right now.

The carpet upstairs is wet, and the paint in the bathroom has a big goiter. I'm not sure if I should pop it like a blister.
