Default #$@!%&!*@

When I went to bed last night around midnight it was 40 F and my backyard and parking lot at my apartment were completely dry. I had just got done running my 8ight and Slash... Now when I wake up at 8amthere is 18" of snow all over. I hate Northern Michigan and am jealous of all you people down south.

I don't need any more hobbies that make me spend money. I realized the other day that I have spent $5000 on rc stuff in 11 months. What I DO need is this snow to go away.

We just got quite a bit last night as well. It's actually still coming down. It's so depressing to get this much snow right after all the previous snow was just melted off.

Patience is a virtue and good this come to those who wait....bla, bla, bla.....

Seriously though....it's only March 23rd, how was it on the last March 23, 2010?

We're getting propper heat during the day out here.....but blistering cold at night at the moment.

Your patience will make victory taste so much sweeter when you are able to......

It's Mother Nature dawg....what to do?

Snow is fun. Up to half an inch my rally car adores, up to two and a half my monster truck was right at home, anything more than that you need a snowmobile.

Not sure what you're talkin' about, not a whole lot of senior citizens down here drive when they shouldn't. The roads are dangerous because a lot of young drivers do retarded things, which is probably why my mom is making me wait for me to get my permit, which pisses me off.

So very true. I often find my anger building or cuss out the weather as if someone could change it.

i swear, sometimes its like the wheather knows EXACTLY how to piss me off, "oh you got your heads in your corvette? its 60F today, but tommorrow im going to make it 25 and snowing, oh you got a stash of fireworks for the 4th? ok damp and rainy it is, you just washed your car? heres some rain."

HERE is my favorite "oh you got a 3day weekend? too bad your going to be stuck shoveling for hours and unable to drive."

You have two monster trucks and the snow is less deep than the ground clearance.


Go outside. Don't come back till your savage is a snow block with a cooling head stuck in the side.
