I'll let her now for ya Morris!!
Weather outlook isn't looking good here either. I think i've shoveled a min of an inch everyday this week.
That`s not bad, around here it`s more for smaller sizes depending on the location.
Not much snow here in the last month or soand I don`t miss it since the streets and highways are nice and dry but it`s been fairly cold and getting colder yet for the next week.

Dawn got the Edge stuck in the driveway yesterday. Now she wants a truck (what's a Raptor?). Good luck with that! Blew the driveway out last night, and now going home to clean it up again. Have a great day guy's.
What does Jordan have for a car?

Morris; Jordan was given a 96 VW golf from my nieghbor. He's had it for 3yrs and I being a certified VW tech did all his maintanace free, believe it or not gave the car to jordan for a 66'r of rye, and 2 grass cut's. Good deal for Jordan. I told him, I would pay for everything to pass a safty, but anything else, he's on the hook for it.

I'm trying to bring up the boy's with a work ethic. They do not get allowance, but they will get CHORE MONEY. That does not include every day, room cleaning or table clearing. They have to do yard work, dog duty and what ever Dawn & I can think of. They both now the value of a dollar, 90.01 US. Jordan could stretch a penny so far you could wire a car with it. Kalan on the other hand, should have shares in Lego, or X-box. G; In our nieghborhood, city, a bottle of hootch will get you more than $$$$. Jordan is disgusted by alcahol (thank god) and Kalan just turned 9 and has no clue. Jordan doesn't know about the 66r. (that was handled by me). We are going to try to get up to watch the hockey at 6am, if not we'll PVR it and watch it at 8am.. GO CANADA GO! HAVE A GREAT EVENING GUY'S.

I couldn't believe it either, it was tied when I went out to clean out the driveway and when I came back in they where shaking hands and it was 5 -0 for the Fins. I was kind of happy to see that.

That is about the same for me. A gallon of gas and a pack of smokes where the same price.
