I actually grew up in British Columbia and moved to Alberta for work in my late 20s. I've done the whole -40 thing and seen my share of frostbite. can't say I liked it much and I was lucky enough to escape to somewhere warmer.

Ugh...are we talking snow already?!?!?  :faint:

Actually a couple of people last week said they looked at the Farmer's Almanac or something and both said we are in for a tough winter.  :(

But makes for great skiing!  :)

Not unless you have one of these babies!




I saw the Terminix guy today.  Said he's seen a lot of acorns on the ground.  Said that's a sign of a big winter.  (I'm depending on Murphy's Law.  If we talk up a big winter we'll see 60 degree winter days in Boston!  :icon16: )

Yup, been real busy!  Bought an old '76 Ramchager that had a twin turbo 440 Six Pack 6.5 speed tranny in it from the factory with dual Dana 60s, tied a rope to the crossbeam in the garage, unbolted the body and a little duct tape and spit and she was SCHAAAWEEEEEETTTTT!!!!!!  :bigsmile:


How the heck do you think I'm gonna go skiing with the 24 feet of snow we're expecting?!?!?!?!!?  :dunno:



I got a couple hours free this weekend if any one wants me to take there rear wheel drive Challenger/Cuda and wants a conversion...  :icon16:  :grinno:
