Author    Post   Richard F L I N T O I D Yes it is true. We are expecting snow flurries tonight here in Florida. I will be running my sprinklers tonight in hopes of creating ice on the lawn and perhaps, I can get my snowmobile out for a quick ride. Here she is peaking out of the garage ready to go! I also added a picture of the poinsetta plant we planted from last year. Looks great! Richard Flint Native Wed Jan 02, 2008 11:51 am  Dave Starr F L I N T O I D I get a kick out of how some people panic at the sight of a few snow flakes. We drove through Nashville a couple years ago after they had 2" of snow; more cars in the ditches than on the road. From the sound of the radio stations, I thought they'd be declaring martial law. _________________ I used to care, but I take a pill for that now. Pushing buttons sure can be fun. When a lion wants to go somewhere, he doesn’t worry about how many hyenas are in the way. Paddle faster, I hear banjos.

I know. Down here if it rains hard people freak out and, most of them are people from the north who, you would think, knew what it is like to drive in bad weather.

Whats even funnier is seeing how fast they shut the schools down for just a light dusting of snow. The never closed the Flint city schools when I was growing up.

I can remember walking to school with snow almost up to my butt. Of course I then had to swim across a 5 mile stretch of lake too.

What I noticed driving through there in the snow was that people don't have the proper tires for it. Not bald, just not the right tread for snow. _________________ I used to care, but I take a pill for that now. Pushing buttons sure can be fun.

Fri Jan 04, 2008 12:58 pm  Opinionated F L I N T O I D It's true that they never closed Flint schools (or extremely rare) when I growing up. I walked through the snow, on my head, backwards...wait - that's my dad talking about when he was a kid! _________________ If you can imagine it, you can create it.
