Morning ya'll; got the last of our Christmas shopping done over the weekend. NWS is still passing that rumor around we might have some snow on Christmas Eve...it'll be cold enough for it...but it won't stick around long if it falls.

Take the wheels off it, then fix it yourself when he's not around.

Technically I'm at work, but since almost all the exec's are gone, there's very little for me to do. I'm keeping busy though....

One thing I'm doing is talking with the VP of IT Infrastructure for a company back in CO. Tech interview should be this week, so wish me luck all!!

I wouldn't go as far as beating an individual for putting their snow in the street. I'd clean it up and then next storm I'd take all the snow from the street and put it on their car. It works both ways right?
