"it's the best fast food taco place EVER"

What about actual taco shops? Maybe you don't have them there I don't know. Here they are a dime a dozen though, some better than others, and all better than any other "mexican" fast food {Taco Bell or Del Taco} place.
Practice common courtesy.

Sympathy and tactfulness are virtues.

I swear to god, we are having the most fugtarded winter ever. Three days ago it's in the 60s and I'm driving around with my windows down. Today there is literally half an inch of ice covering my car.

I haven't seen any decent snow in two years. I go to school in Statesboro, GA, but I come home for Thanksgiving and winter break to Staten Island, NY. Two years.

What the fork?

It's barely snowed at all this year here in Pittsburgh. (Which is a good thing). Although it's been raining constantly for what must be nearly a week now. Several roads were more like rivers last night. I was very impressed with how my car handled it though.

Snow is cool to play in but driving in it sucks. We got 6 inches yesterday and 3 inches last night.

[quote="Thrawn";p="441072"]If you don't like the cold, you should come visit new zealand. It's summer over here. :)

Dunno where the summer went though, we've been getting rain and not so hot weather lately. :([/quote]
Stop that, it is always summer in New-Zealand.

I love snow. Especially the part where Chicago suburbs decide its not terribly important to plow arterial roads.

Snow is prettier in rants & raves, though.

Okay, I'll bend. I can't stand summer heat either. Give me a hoodie and a snow shovel over a speedo and a sand pail any day.

It's been snowing for two days straight here, and I spent nearly two hours shovelling the driveway yesterday morning. Yeah, gotta love snow :happyroll:

On the bright side, they've closed the main road, my only means of getting back to school, so maybe my vacation will be slightly extended.....

But seriously, snow with these kinds of conditions is not fun. I want it to be hot and sunny again. Come back, July!

In California, we surpassed our annual rainfall for the season (July to June) in late December, and we're expecting another few inches of rain this weekend with some Pacific storm that's arrived today.

And we still have the wet months to go through. :?

Greg must be loving it ^_^

I'm right on the border of Iowa, between Wisconsin and Illinois. We got about 13 inches of snow, all together. School was canceled for two days in a row, so I got to sit around the house an do absolutely nothing. My hubby even shoveled for me! However, when it turned into three days of no work, I started going a bit stir crazy.
