COME VISIT! We can rent snowshoes for cheap for you and Amy and we can play in the snow at Wolfe's Neck! It'll be fun!

I have a Subaru, the second most popular vehicle in Maine after the Ford F-150. Best vehicle I've ever driven in snow and ice. That said, I still don't want to have to drive to work today.

Nah, you can keep that weather. Call me crazy, but I like winter. Just not all in one weekend, lol.

The thing with snowshoe racing is that conditions are highly variable by the hour, You could run the same course two days in a row, and have completely different conditions, which result in completely different times. Two years ago, we'd just had 18 inches of powder dumped on us, and it was too cold for the snow to compact. And the race director had to change the race to the day before at the last minute to avoid a blizzard that was coming in on the original day of the race. Conditions were miserable, I fell at the beginning of the race and wrenched both my knee and my ankle, and I was the last person to finish by a significant margin. And it was cold and the temp dropped like a rock the whole time we were out there. This year, we had a bunch of snow just before the race, but it covered the bare patches and packed nicely, and the temp was in the high teens. A little colder than what we've gotten used to this winter, so I didn't have time to properly acclimate, but not too bad, and I was never cold during the race. And I follow what I call the Jerry Strategy, named after a guy named Jerry who runs these races. Jerry turned 80 yesterday, by the way. Jerry told me to walk the ups, run the downs, and do what seems like the right thing on the in-betweens. I may not finish fast, but I finish, and that's all I care about.

Congrats! I need to get to the post office and mail you that physical copy of VR Missions I found for you.

Hope you're feeling better now, Ashley.

I got stuck in the first Uncharted in one spot where the enemies just kept coming and coming and coming and I kept dying and dying and dying and I rage quit and haven't been back to it since. I wasnt that far in, either.

I have Mass Effect, just have never gotten around to it. I need to stop buying games (and new systems) and just wale away on what I already own.

I am a big Garth Brooks fan, where did you find that boxed set? I saw him in 1995 one of the best concerts I've ever been to.

I  have to agree with Cary on this one. I liked it, but it didn't wow me. I did have fun finding and rescuing all the Stan Lees, though. And like Catherine mentioned above, Lego Jurassic Park was a better game.

I thought the humor was better in Lego Jurassic Park, too. And all the Spielberg Easter eggs.

You have a shitstorm, I have a snowstorm. The state police are advising people to stay home but my winter place of employment has decided otherwise. They claimed on Facebook that we were volunteers. I don't remember being given an option. I am not pleased.

I agree with Cary about Lego Batman 2 being better than 3.
