Tim,

Keep that sub zero stuff up there in the frozen tundra with you and racegal. It is already cold enough here and beside, we are getting more snow. After last nights freezing drizzle and fog, Hoosiers are learning all over again how to drive.

It is so cold up here in Dakota that this morning I had to push my house two blocks to get the furnace started.

It's funny how things work. The company that I work for thought that today would be a good day to have our maintenance guys replace a few windows in our offices. They took one window out at 9:15am and broke it beyond repair, and the new one doesn't fit. Nice huh?

5-1/2" here of that !@#$ white stuff, with temps tomorrow morning near zero. And for all those weathermen who spent all Fall telling us how the long term computer models were calling for a mild winter,

Freezing drizzle and a few inches of snow combined with rear wheel drive is how Indiana produced all those good sprint car drivers! If you would be up here and take a ride with me in the winter you might think i could have had a shot at driving a sprinter.

I love driving in rear wheel drive only. If I truely have to go somewhere, I will put it into 4wd, which rarely happens. I love finding uncleared parking lots to drift a little and if I get stopped, I will say I am just practicing handling my vehicle if it gets loose.
