"My trusty hardware store yardstick says we got 17" of snow in the
backyard, without counting any drifts. Just put out some more seed on
flattened cardboard boxes for the birds, who have a rough time of it
when it snows.

Plow guy supposed to be here around noon-ish. :)"


Ah...the trusty wooden yard stick...you just don't see them up here anymore.
I do have a metal, meter long ruler though.
So far we only have an inch or two of snow....just a light dusting.
I got a kick off CNN coverage from Virginia last night. All I saw
was half of 3/4 ton pickups plowing the streets. We use those for
driveways or smaller parking lots.

I was just outside, unburying the car I left in the driveway. It's
c*o*l*d out there... :)

You should have parked it in the red barn - with the owls.
Hell yes. Shovelling that quarter mile driveway must be a bitch.

I thought it was less than 100 ft from the corner of his house to the
corner of his driveway. Maybe my measurements are off.
I thought he told us it was a quarter mile before the overhead view became available.
Ditto with his Maryland Red Barn.

When we moved here, ****s for brains, we were the first occupied house on
the little street, and the only part of the road leading to the state road
was our driveway and several hundred feet of gravel road that led to a
large traffic circle, unpaved. It was all our driveway for months.

The driveway was your driveway, and the gravel road was the gravel road.

And the Maryland Red Barn? How did it get moved?

===

Don't you understand? The guvmint took his driveway and turned it
into a road. They needed it more than he did. And Harry really
thought the red barn was his, up until it wasn't. The owls were his
also until someone else set the record straight. He's just a victim
of others, and I'm sure that's how the sorry SOB sees things.


And that's why he has withheld taxes, I guess.

Could you see the picture of our resident biker plowing his driveway Virginia style?
It doesn't load up when I hit on the link.

Then why did you post a malformed, non-working link?

Try again, maybe on a real computer.

D'uh! As soon as I posted it and realized it didn't work...I deleted it.
Wake up & smell the coffee.

It's just about impossible to delete a Usenet post once it is "out in
the wild" and propagated to multiple servers. Most server sites will
not honor a message cancel request because of its potential for
mischief.

Heh... exactly right. It might be gone from his playbook, but not from the internet.
