A Note on the Season
« on: December 31, 2006, 02:49:57 PM »

Now that the holiday season is drawing to a close can we expect to see the increased levels of friendly greeting and accommodation that has been gracing these pages lately continue?  Or, are we likely to return to the caustic, sarcastic and abrasive (but certainly only fun loving) ways of the past?

My wishes to all for a safe, prosperous New Year filled with continued LSR communication and significant high speed achievement.

If history is a valid indicator of future trends, I'd say that the answer is a definitive YES!

Best wishes to you folks out there in Racer-land.

No, Gary, those oinkers hogged all the snow and didn't let us have any!  We're well-below normal for season total snowfall, and the ground is pretty much bare.  Temps have been very warm (well, warm for us - Ed Van Scoy and I have different meanings for that word), and the forecast for the rest of this week includes the words "unseasonably warm" just about every day.

Will you see us at Maxton?  If you don't keep your eyes closed you sure as heck will.  Happy New Year.

I kinda like the sarcasum. I'm glad the holidays are over too.
Lookin' forward to everyone wanting to change things to their way of thinking.
Love those personal agendas.
Sorry the folks in the east have snow but please stay where you are. We are too crowded now.

Hows that!!!!!! Everybody happy or just Ed, Glen, Keith, and Jack :evil:

The snow plowing business in Denver is really great when you live in San Diego. :wink:

But we heard you had a few snow flakes around SanDiego the other day.  Must be colder than a well diggers Ass for you ultra thin blood folks.

Rick, Nancy and I have been to San Diego a couple of times -- and we can testify -- they've got a LOT of flakes in that town (Not you, Kent...).  Nothing like San Francisco, but stil, they've got flakes.

Actually the weather is perfect.
The snow plow is plowing and the sail boat is chartered.
