Thread: Pre xmas banter

  1. #1

    Pre xmas banter

    Gotta do something to change the juju. Ullr doesnt seem happy with our sacrifices and dances to date. I went the consumerist route yesterday and got a new car snow brush, orange windshield washer fluid, lock deicer and new snow shovel. All completely unnecessary but i had to do somehting. Putting snow tires on the car tomorrow. Any suggestions welcome.

    I tend to think the opposite way. The less prepared I might be for an onslaught of snow, the more likely that it will come my way. Perhaps leave the summer tires on, and go shopping for swim wear?

    Id wear a bikini if that would help. And what a sight that would be.

    I guess that I should not have purchased new wider skis for this ski season. Jinxed!

    I was never a big fan of the snow dance. Who the hell came up with that one. We need a real sacrifice. Like a cow or a goat or something. Anybody want to donate a first born or a son? Hey it worked for Abraham right.

    So much for NWS' 28'F f/c for....errrr...right now. Apparently there's a crack in whichever 'model' churned that # out.
    Act. temps of 47'F per readings at Norm's, MRG base, Sugarbush base (37'F up top).
    Talk about kicking a fella when he's on the ground. Fingers crossed the model at least bats 50% with the upcoming curative [trying to stay positive] snow.
    No mountain too steep
    No powder too deep

    (well, not exactly)
