SNOW DAY TODAY!!!!

YEAH!!!!!!! :D :cool: :) :p

[fayefaye]

SOOO JEALOUS!

[Jay]

Well, here we have snow kinda two, three months a year, it depends ;). Sorry, that was mean :o. But NOT my fault ;) we do :D.

CONGRATS Fool btw, have fun, build a snowman, have a snow-ball fight, don't catch a cold ;).

[Isagel]

What´s a snow day? Is it just a day with snow, or is it something I´m missing?

[Jay]

Good point. I think the meaning is that it snowed today?

[subterranean]

Haven't seen snow all my entire life...but I see the sun everyday in a whole year.

[Jay]

Come over, I'm gonna have you all wet and cold from snow you're so not ever gonna want to see it again ;) :D:D:D.

[subterranean]

ohh that grinches..

That's a nice invitation. But you don't happen to have any secret agenda do you? ;)

[Jay]

Lol, what agenda? Me? I'm harmless... most of the times anyway ;)

[subterranean]

Say, will you get stomachache if you (by accident) eat snow?

Just curious..

[Jay]

Depends if the snow's clean, if you tasted some that's dirty, yep, the "clean" (however adjective's ok to use) is harmless. And why by accident? So what, you go out and have a little snow (did that when I was younger :D), no big deal. You can also go, break an icicle off a tree and suck it. It's all just water, cold and solid, but still water.

[subterranean]

why by accident?

So you're saying that some people did ate snow in purpose? For what? just wanted to know how it taste?

[Jay]

Well, some people, ok, I DO am people alright ;)... kids do that on regular basis. And the snow's sorta taste-less. It IS water...

[azmuse]

p.s. a snow day is when people get the day off from school because of excessive white blankets on the rooftops/ground/cars outside. and, it's quite a sight to see, fire trucks going 10/15 mph with snow chains on.

[Jay]

LOL, well, congrats anyway Fool :D, thanks for the pop culture reference Az ;)

[imthefoolonthehill]

yeah... it means no school... I didn't do much in the snow, though... I just worked on my Eagle scout project. I am going to organize a group to come into our city library and digitalize our checkout/book-finding system.

[IWilKikU]

Thanx to my tricky holiday travels, I havn't seen snow fallling this winter. Only lying on the ground, dying its slow snow death! MWAHAHAHAHA!!!!! eff the effing snow!:mad: :mad: :mad:

[fayefaye]

YOU ALL TAKE SNOW FOR GRANTED!!! Here, we NEVER get snow. EVER. Right now, I'd fly to Beijing just for snow. I really would.

[Jay]

I think you'd have it closer to Antarctica if my geography skills aren't too much in the past. And there would be almost no people there to annoy you ;), it's a plus :D.

[Isagel]

We have snow. You can have it. I want sun.

In november my city had 18 hours of sun, all in all. Instead we had rain, snow and darkness. And fog.

[fayefaye]

WE ONLY HAVE SUN. Come to Australia, you'll get sick of it so quickly. 30'C or so days everyday... heat, and so much sun. You can have it. I want snow. I want wisps of condensation coming out of my mouth as I exhale. I want snowmen and icicles and SNOW!!

[azmuse]

lordy, lordy, faye. I want snow. it would heat things up a little!, be a god-given blessing; there's ice on the sidewalk outside - a frozen rivulet from who-knows-when. it has to be WARM to snow!!!

[Stanislaw]

I live in Canada. We get alot of snow here, you can all have it for free!!!

Aren't I generouse?

So, today it rained... and the entire ground is covered in a 1/4 inch of ice. I can't even open my car door.

@#$%#^# Winter, #$%$#^# Snow.

[IWilKikU]

ew..

[fayefaye]

Today, I think it was thirty something degrees Celsius -hot, anyway, and I called up my friends about two in the afternoon, and they're like 'what? No, it's way too hot for the beach. Let's go SHOPPING' ME WANT SNOW. How can it be TOO hot for the beach?? Anyway, I'm sick of summer already. GIVE ME ICICLES, FROZEN SIDEWALKS, SNOW.

[Koa]

AAAAWWW never had that.
I see snow averagely 1 or 2 days a year :D IF it sticks to the ground and doesn't vanish like rain.
Still haven't seen any this winter.
Unless I go to the mountains, not far from here... but I'm not bothered.

So faye, snow is not too granted at least for me :) I don't like snow that much, though I like winter. But I hate summer, I really sympathise with you. I feel sick if I think that this winter will end and in some months it'll be summer again...

[fayefaye]

I love snow!! Don't diss it!

[piquant]

I am currently sitting under three feet of snow. I like snow, but I just wish that snow was warm. I hate to be cold. In the winter you never get to be outside because its so cold, and when you are outside, you're rushing to get somewhere warm, so you can't even enjoy the beauty of the snow. It was definately bellow zero yesterday, and I have no car, and I had to walk miles along the streets of my town going into stores and begging for a job. (Why won't anyone hire me!--I just want to eat!). Basically I hate winter. If I lived somewhere warm I wouldn't even need another job, because then I wouldn't have to pay rent, because it would be warm enough I could sleep under a bridge and shower at the local YMCA. O to be a Florida bum!

[fayefaye]

I thnk it's illegal here to sleep on the beaches, otherwise I'd definately do it. :D You wish snow was warm?? Good luck! As for jobs, you could always fabricate your resume. *evil smiley*

[imthefoolonthehill]

wait... you don't want to sleep on the beaches because it is illegal.... but you encourage someone to commit fraud? inconsistancy??? nah....

[fayefaye]

I WAS kidding.

Of course I sleep on the beaches. :D

[piquant]

I was going to take a two week lit class in italy and visit Dante's house, read the decameron, scketch in florence, and learn italian, but since no one will hire me and I have to eat, I'm not going to be able to. I geus it will be another boring summer in PA.

[azmuse]

pa is god's country piquant. what are you talking about!!! i spent 3 years homesick for this place. though i think you must be out west, because your weather's a lot colder, and perhaps it's not as lively as here - ? though omigod it's beautiful - esp. in indiana country...*waxes nostalgic*

[azmuse]

oh damn a typo. indiana county.

I wish we could trade place for a month or so. I have the sun everyday, and of course no such holiday like the snow day.:p

[Koa]

On the news they're saying eastern USA and Canada are colder than ever...

[imthefoolonthehill]

while on the news Europe is supposed to be significantly warmer than usual.

[fayefaye]

hey sub, where are you?

[Koa]

LOL! Well here they keep predicting freezing temperatures but infact it's not too cold at all, just nicely bearable. But last week I was freezing... (well, I call it freezing when it's + 5° centigrades or less... hardly ever go under 0, unless it's night...)

[fayefaye]

freezing is less than -5'C to me, even though I live in Australia, I can take cold temperatures pretty well.

[IWilKikU]

Well I just got back to England and it was 2'C when I landed and it was GLORIOUS!!! It has been so damn cold in VA. Its been like 20'F and below (dont know how to convert other than 0'C = 32'F) brrrrrrrrrrrrr-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-r--r-r-r-r-r--r-r!

[azmuse]

It got so warm today it Rained!!! 37'F - YES!!!!

[azmuse]

...Nothing like a perfect 3 a.m. snowfall, pristine and nostalgic, transformed into dirty, icy slush by afternoon, though. :( Ah well. Go Eagles!

[fayefaye]

Yesterday it was hot-as. And I spent the day walking around the city in the sun. If you do that, you end up hot and sweaty and disgusting. And if you stand in the sun, it feels like you could shrivel up and die.

[piquant]

Azmuse, are you out near philly! I live 2 hrs south of pittsburgh, and go to scool in Erie (Damn that lake effect). I thought everyone on this forum was from Bulgaria, or some other distant country! Yeah, the mountains are beautiful, and I miss them like hell when I'm away, but I hate cold weather! Go Steelers! (Although they're already dead).

[azmuse]

Yes Piquant; I'm back in Philly :)! Almost stayed in the state after visiting Indiana, PA and crying in Pittsburgh last April, trying to memorize the treeline from outside the airport window.
Lake Erie! No wonder you're so cooold. No, am not from anywhere exotic...well, not strictly true, England, but left before was old enough to remember.
Yeah Steelers - love for all PA teams, past present and future!

[fayefaye]

<sort of off topic>
I love airports. No idea why. Hate planes. Wish I was knee deep in soft white snow right now. The fluffy 'wouldn't knock you unconscious if it were thrown at you' kind. build a funny looking snowman and take a photo.

I know the feeling!
It's freezing here today though. (again for the snow-people, look at my definition of freezing... ;))




<sort of off topic>

Oh no not again... We're damn sisters. I've never been on a plane for more than 1 hour and a half (or probably less), which is from here to London... Well, I don't wish to do longer trips. I probably will never see the USA, or Australia, or Japan, unless they buld a road for me. But I do adore airports... so much to look at, many people going everywhere from everywhere, even the shops look interesting even if they're not, but they have their own atmosphere... and so on and on and on...

[azmuse]

faye, where ARE you?
it seems such forever since you wrote, are you ok?
faye, they'refalling!!! they aren't pristine and snotty in early morning regalia, lying on the ground in massive indistinguishable white heaps, laughing because i was asleep at 2 a.m. as they sashayed, swirled and danced downwards, they'refalling! the snowflakes are falalalling!
...wish you could see them :)

[Koa]

I was wondering about faye too...

Well according to the tv it has snowed in practically the whole Italy in the past days, but as usual not in my city (a well known tropical island in the continental part of a mediterranean country...:rolleyes: ). A girl at University told me it snowed yesterday in her town, some 40 km from here... Not even rain here.

They predicted snow for tonight...we'll see. It's definitely VERY cold anyway.

[IWilKikU]

Ohhhh not even rain :( you poor poor thing! :( :( :(

[Koa]

(? I love rain)

Well, it did snow in the end last night.... :D This morning there was barely a clue of it though, I looked through a window and thought it had rained cos everything was wet...Then opened a window on the other side of the house and saw that some roofs and some grass were slightly white... There was no trace of it a few hours later of course, but it was still very cold.

End of today's weather report :D

(I always talk so much of weather...like the old lady that I am...:p )

[azmuse]

I am so glad you love rain! It's almost never dreary. It is fresh, and sparkly, and romantic. Wind is the brute! Rain is lush and cozy and full of cookies.

[IWilKikU]

Everyone who loves rain and never gets it should move to the UK! Back home in Virginia it rains often enough that everything stays fresh and green, but seldom enough (except for last summer) that it doesn't make the ground into perma-mud. Ahh the joys of moderation!

[fayefaye]

I LOVE RAIN! But everyone in england hates it-that's true. I get the feeling sometimes that the whole of England needs to be moved down to a warmer climate to suit the english-they always complain about the weather. What am I saying? Here we get good weather all year round! I've forgotten what it's like to always see a grey sky. Must get depressing.

azmuse, koa, you noticed my absence? I'm touched. :) don't worry-I'm fine.

[IWilKikU]

Yeah, when England started using Australia as a penal colony they really screwed up. The English should have left the prisoners in England and ran away to Australia themselves.

[Isagel]

I have changed my mind. Snow is great. Evrything shines and sparkles. Suddenly the world is bright. And all the city noises is silenced by white thick blankets. Waded through 1 1/2 feet of snow to work. Singing. Evryone smiles.

[fayefaye]

Yeah, but have you ever studied history of Australia? It was a total pain in the *ss for them to come over here. Some prisoners just died on the way over.

[star blue]

faye, you ever study history of america? we kicked your a.ss in world war two.

:D

[fayefaye]

yeah? I don't really care.

[Koa]

Rain is one of the many reasons why I feel my blood is somehow English (my mum thinks there was a mistake at the hospital when i was born and I'm not her child but an English substitute :D).
English weather is my ideal weather.
Damn Italians love sunshine and bloody long days and blah blah blah...
It's not that I never get rain, sometimes we have it...sometimes even for long periods, but the past months have been quite dry, surely less rainy than normal.

[azmuse]

Too much sunshine scares me. I don't know why. San Diego freaked me out until I got there and it Rained, Rained, Rained :D

[IWilKikU]

mmm, sunshine, ahhh, long days:cool: :cool: :cool: :cool:

[fayefaye]

sigh.

[fayefaye]

oh-I love late sunsets.

[Shea]

80 degrees today.

May seem like a Febuary dream to some, I hate it!

[IWilKikU]

Its warmed up quite a bit here too. But its not sunny. Its hot and muggy :mad: :mad: :mad:!!! *sigh* I guess there's no pleasing some people. :(

[fayefaye]

People always want to be where they're not. Grass is greener syndrome

[Koa]

Indeed.

[IWilKikU]

I would love to be where I'm not. Cause if I was, I would go to where I was and the me here could shake the hand of the me there. Oh dear, I've gone crosseyed.

[fayefaye]

I would love to be anywhere and everywhere and nowhere all at once.

[atiguhya padma]

Are you sure?:)

[fayefaye]

Absolutely.

[atiguhya padma]

Maybe you are. After all, how would you know if you were?:D

[star blue]

weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeird.

[fayefaye]

I'm nowhere, not everywhere, and I'd like to be anywhere else. Simple.

[atiguhya padma]

If you are nowhere, then you cannot be somewhere
If you exist but are not somewhere, then that might mean you are everywhere. (maybe I'm solving the problem of consciousness as we speak....!!!):)

[atiguhya padma]

Fayefaye,

I think you might be God!:)

[fayefaye]

DEFINATELY, DEFINATELY NOT. I AM Christian, you know. I was speaking metaphorically.

[atiguhya padma]

So was I:)

[star blue]

definitely, fayefaye. definitely.

[IWilKikU]

Oh... :( I was hoping someday I could be God. :( oh well. Congrats fayefaye. :(

[fayefaye]

*may enter very, very pathetic power trip real soon* You should all be very scared.

[atiguhya padma]

Post Andy Warhol, maybe we could all be God for 15 minutes (or was it 15 seconds?)

[fayefaye]

So my fifteen seconds are over? :( well that sucked.

[Koa]

seventeen seconds, a measure of life

[IWilKikU]

If I was God for fifteen seconds and only had time to do one thing, I would make all females over the age of 17 a 36 DD. Yeah!!

[Sindhu]

That gets me to seriouly thinking what I would do during my 15 seconds of Goddesshood!:D

[Koa]

a what??? :confused:

[IWilKikU]

bra size: 36 DD :D:D:D:D

[IWilKikU]

Maybe between the ages of 17 and 30.

[Koa]

:rolleyes: ;)

Does it take a degree in space engineering to buy a bra in...UK or USA or wherever you are...???:eek:

We just have plain 1, 2, 3, 4 (5, 6, 7...hope there's nothing beyond that :D))...at least I don't have to know much maths, nor the alphabet... :D

[IWilKikU]

36 inch bust, DD is cup size. DD means REALLY BIG. Thats American bra sizes, but I've never actually bought a bra in ANY country, so uhh... I'm sure that regular #'s work fine.

[fayefaye]

that's quite an ambition, kik. You know, screw world peace, curing hunger, fighting disease.... :rolleyes: :) :p

[IWilKikU]

Oh yeah, I would also eradicate the "Scream" series from the face of cinematics.

[IWilKikU]

seriously though Fayefaye, if everyone was a 36DD what would us men have to fight about???

[fayefaye]

lol, I'm so not going into this one. Guys don't fight over girls anyway. :)

[Cassandra]

And if there only fighting over bra size wouldn't that be incredibly pathetic.

[IWilKikU]

No but if there was a beautiful pair of breast EVERYWHERE you look, would you really be able to stay angry enough to start fights, wars, genocides? A great deal of wars through the ages have started on religeous or ethnic cleansing. If I was a German SS officer, I couldn't throw a 36DD jewish girl into an oven! If I was a crusader, I couldn't run through a 36DD muslim woman if she didn't convert to Christianity. If I was a British redcoat, I couldn't shoot a 36DD American colonist girl if she refused my company quarter. ect. We are talking about Utopia!!!

[fayefaye]

yeah-exactly.

[Cassandra]

What about other beauty. I don't think genocidal maniacs would not kill someone cus they were a 36DD. Besides I think it would be a pain.Also it woould only be utopia for guys. who wants people to only look at your beasts all the time, besides which I think guys would get bored and want something bigger. What a ridiculous conversation.

[fayefaye]

LOL, kik. People will kill, regardless. Regardless of religion or physical attribute. Inevitably, inevitably, inevitably. Humans suck.

[Cassandra]

Harsh!

[fayefaye]

What? people do suck. As a race. individuals can be good. I don't see why wars are such a part of human nature.

[Cassandra]

Wars shouldn't be, it's really immature to say the least and evil to say the worst. I mean, sometimes I have the desire to hit someone who's being really nasty but I show restraint and work other ways, why can't governments at least attempt the same.

As a race i think people are balanced because we are made up of individuals, some of whom can be bad and go to war, some of whom can be nice and protest. People just seem to focus on the negitive sometimes and forget good things. I think this is partly because some of the most corrupt people, or those most noticeably corrupt, are those in power who make bad decisions like war.

[IWilKikU]

Ok, so if I was God, I would make all girls a 36DD ...AND make all world governments run by women. All problems solved.

[Koa]

I think if I was a man I'd like thin girls with small breasts.

Maybe there are men out there who like that... (yeah, MAYBE!)...so maybe this idea won't make the world a peaceful place after all...
:D

[atiguhya padma]

I think if I were a woman, I'd want men to like women with small breasts!

However, quite honestly, from my personal experience, I have explored the whole spectrum. Hell, we're creatures that have thrived on diversity. So why specialise in anything?

[IWilKikU]

don't get me wrong! I love thin girls with small breasts! Hell, I just love breasts really. ;)

[IWilKikU]

Oh and just to clarify (don't think this post is neccesary actually) I wouldn't really make all breasts 36DD's if I was God for 15 sec. or what ever we decided. And although I usually have to think really hard about it, every now and than I can think of somthing more important than breasts.

[fayefaye]

Lol. ok, change of subject now!! please?

[Sindhu]

Yes- PLEASE!

[IWilKikU]

maybe only 34D. 36DD can be overkill in some situations.

[amuse]

Kik, someone with a top that huge and a bust 2 inches smaller all around, that measurement is proportionately nearly as big as your first idea!

now can we change the subject? fill up the cups with tons of ideas? they've got enough room in them! :D

[Cassandra]

Can you only think of one thing Kik, please change the subject, at least in writing.

[IWilKikU]

sorry guys. Lets talk about...




ah hell, thats the only thing worth talking about really.

[Cassandra]

I think the conversation was what would one do with 15 seconds of goddess/godhood. Though time is probably all weird for God so 15 seconds could be made to last forever. If I were God, one frivoulous thing I would want to do would be to make a completely safe, foolproof way of timetravel so I could get cool clothes and fence proper knights.

[atiguhya padma]

I would prevent children from suffering.

[Cassandra]

You're supposed to say the silly things too. Most people would presumably get rid of all the nasty stuff. What ridiculous thing would you do?

[IWilKikU]

If people would presumably "get rid of all the nasty stuff", why doesn't the real God just do that?

[Cassandra]

Freewill lark? It's like in Plato where he has the guardians decide what is right for everybody save we figured if someone really did that everybody would revolt.God told us how to end at least a lot of the nasty stuff, we just don't always try and not everyone believes it.

[atiguhya padma]

Some of the nastier stuff are genetic defects. God could have made replication better.

Hodgkinson's is a terrible condition that should not exist.

Then there is the fact that we decay because we breathe oxygen. That could have been improved surely.

Then there are natural disasters, diseases, etc.

[Cassandra]

People do have to die somehow but there are many horrible ways that should not exist although that does not mean that we cannot learn from them. Earthquakes etc... can be very good for the earth so we need to keep natural disasters e.g. the flooding of the Nile. I don't think God likes to interfere to often if he can help it.

[Shea]

There seems to be an age old question of "why would God allow an innocent baby to die in a tornado, but let the rest of the family live to greive?" It seems like an inhumane situation, but think about it, it motivates us to invent precationary measures, more resistant buildings, etc.

[Shea]

BTW, if I were God, I would make it so that certain pets like dogs stay puppies. I mean, it's already like taking care of a child anyway, so why can't they stay cute and cuddly?

[Cassandra]

I think you were God when my dog was born Shea, she was always cute and fluffy and never grew up and learned how to behave.

[fayefaye]

My dog shrinks with time. And everybody says, no you're just getting taller. But I KNOW he's shrinking.

[Cassandra]

Have you taken to wearing heels more often recently? :)

[fayefaye]

lol. I bought some that add three inches to my height, if that's what you mean. :D

[Isagel]

I just read most of these posts - amd to think it all started as a discussion on snow.

BTW - high heels are great. My best party shoes have heels that are 4 inches - and I can dance in them! Practice makes perfect.

[Cassandra]

All my heels are low. I'm a little paranoid about not being safe on the ground after breaking my arm by jumping on the bed once , country dancing, playing tag and tripping over a flat rug. Forgive me for for being suspicious of heels.

[Shea]

I hate the sound of heels when I walk. I like to be quiet when I walk. My favorite heels are a pair of shoes that I had to have the soles repaired on and the guy who fixed them was gracious enough to use a soft rubber.

[Isagel]

I like the sound of high heels. It makes me feels as if I had hooves instead of feet. Like a satyr.

But I like soft shoes as well and use them when I go hiking, trying to sneak up on birds.

[fayefaye]

I like the sound they make too, but I can't walk in them for too long because I feel like I'll end up a cripple - it kills my feet.

[Isagel]

It´s mind over matter you know - if you do not mind, it does not matter.

[atiguhya padma]

Apparently, the original phrase appeared in a Punch cartoon in the 19th C.

Bertrand Russell wrote how his parents used to mock philosophy and say something like "Mind? Doesn't matter. Matter? Never mind."

[Isagel]

:-)

My version comes from mr Lift - i think he is called. A circusartist who lifts heavy objects in his piercings. The phrase was his answer to the question if it hurt alot.

[fayefaye]

:) comparing heels to some kind of bodily punishment? :)
