Is it just me ???? I don't believe the weather " FORECASTING " is any better today than 20/25 years ago !!! . Hells Bells ,I think my dog can do better then these clowns,,, With all their SUPER DOPPLER RADAR and computer MODELS ( or what ever they call it ? ) just does not make sense . Never saw a profession that you can be wrong 40/60%and still get paid and not fired,, something is NOT RIGHT ,,,, Is their game plan to get people "worked up" and stay tunned to their forecast and watch their ratings go up ? sell shovels ?? sell bread&milk or whatever???
BUT, when they HAPPEN to hit it correctly , they are bragging for three days afterwards,, The Lancaster (PA ) T.V station is the worst for being wrong and bragging,,, I hope my wife will smash our TV all to _________ when they start talking the possibility of " white gold" so I don't watch those idiots,, not sure if a man can handle another no snow let down ,,,
Also. ( since I am pissed off) weather guys tell ya " we get as much snow now as we did 25/ 35 years ago " unquote,,, that is dead wrong, at least in this area,, idiots, idiots, idiots,,, imo.gif

My wife has given me the odd look for the last couple of day after everyone of my "the weatherman is an asshole" rants. The only thing that allows me to keep my sanity is that there are many other folks out there that are just as frustrated as I am. Don't worry there Fuzzy, they have little pink pills that will make us feel happy if it turns out like last year and we don't even get on the snow until the end of January.

I know, just for the fun of it! Let's total up all the money we spent and will spend on stuff for riding so far this year. Then, divide that by the approximate number of hours you think you will ride to get your hourly cost. Don't forget things like gas, oil, food, hotels, maintenance etc.. Don't forget you need gas for the sled AND the truck.

I'll take a shot at it first but before I do I have to run to the mall with the wife. When we get back tonight and I get all my chores she has for me done I'll sit down and go through last years costs and see how much it cost me. It not going to be a exact number but I bet it's pretty close!

Honestly gents, why would you ever believe the weatherman anymore? Haven't we learned our lesson? Believing that their going to be right is like believing in Santa, or the first time I buy a lottey ticket, I'll win.
And yeah, I wish I was 18 again so I could go to college to become a weatherman. It has to be the best job in the world, right? They now rely on high tech crap to get their info and wrong 99% of the time.Wasn't like that 15 years ago. I remember predictions that would almost be the exact amount of inches. Paid to guess what will happen, that makes them no different then the barker at the fair you guesses your wieght.

Great, now my ulsers acting up........

Oh, let me rant on...

Not only is this not "snow", but it is the hardest crap to move. Had to just about tip my blower up on end to get it to dig in.Truck with a blade mite of been better, if there was a place to push it.

Time for a nother shot of Pepto...........
