Up here in the Banana belt it is 50 something, sunny, no snow , and I just come from walking the dog 2-1/2 miles around the lake in shirt sleeves. May Al Gore is right about this global warming stuff ( NOT ) .

Been a real weird winter for sure. We only saw 1 real snow storm this winter and that was only bout a month ago. Great weather all last week with rain in the forcast for the last 4 days but we haven't seen a drop. Upstate NY should still have at least a few inches of the white stuff on the ground but ours has been gone for the last couple weeks. Was going to take the 55 out for the 1st ride this year ,well, that was til I drove it out the garage, pushed in the clutch and realized the front brakes are stuck so I changed my mind and back in it went. Damn it, just when I thought I could get a jump on the season

2010: The Winter That Would Not End! Tell me about it! I'm in Lawrence (KU JayHawks, Rah, Rah, Ra- oh, we're done? um... nevermind)

I broke the 5speed in my daily driver Cherokee on Halloween- just got the thing last summer, and had to wait till tax time to rebuild the 5gear, do all new clutch related things, and replace the shot rolling stock.

This was my weekend to rebuild the suspension (broken leaves) that were making it rub on the new tires, lol. The best winter in years to have a Jeep, and I spent this last storm driving 200miles through it to buy someone's lift kit, while the Heap drives jackstands into the mud.

Sorry for the rant-but Mother Nature made me her bitch this winter,lol. She's got both my dailydriver and the Falcon covered in snow, and sinking in mud.

Some people claaaaim that there's a wo-man to blame, but I think..... it's my own damned fault....
