The really high-end ones have a whale penis as a handle.

There was an article in the paper of a reporter who filled his truck with
snow and drove to the Olympics. When he told the gaurd of his contribution
to the snow relief effort, they were not amused.

I know _you_ get it. Many don't. Some people think you have to be
either hard-core left or hard-core right, what you get is the US
congress as it is. Nothing gets done this way. It is possible to be
conservative and have a heart, And by that I do not mean the Rovian
version of compassionate conservatism, that's just smoke and mirrors.
It IS possible to be smart with your money, get rich, believe in God,
peace and still care about the less fortunate.
What is so wrong about being centrist?

Kudos to Hazel!!!

It is those GWarmer idiots that are already busy pointing their booger-
laden little fingers and proclaiming it is all OUR FAULT that we don't
have snow. It's Vancouver for fooksakes! It always rains there, the
mountains are on the edge of a RAINFOREST!!
The skiers were talking about skiing into clammy warmer air compared
to the air they had when they started.
As soon as it was announced that the 2010 games were going to be in
Vancouver, a few of us immediately commented: "That oughtta be
interesting.." Vancouver's weather is like Amsterdam's, rain with an
occasional high and a hooker.
Don't get me wrong, I love Canada, but you can keep that cesspool of
yuppy snotnosed loft-living Bimmer drivers.....I don't mean this in a
BAD way....

Hottest January in recorded history. Yah it is Canada's New York ..only
prettier.
