The only place in the ruddy driveway that the snow piled up.
The snowplough took the morning paper off, who knows where.

I think the french use the terminus technicus "merde blanche" which, translated into german, would be "Wei�e Schei�e" - and that's a fine rhyme Very Happy

Poor boys, really.

It was 80 something degrees here yesterday. I would have loved some snow.

The admins deleted all my posts in the PWT. Now the PWT is back to 20 pages and I am left with a "1" in my postcount Wink

On the serious side: I support TSnerds campaign "Postcount doesn�t matter" Wink

Whatever, I don't read ANYTHING unless the poster has at least 2,000 posts. That is why my posts rarely make sense. I skip over everything until I get to someone who has a high post count. I actually had a mod block everyone who doesn't have that many posts. It works nice. I see mostly SP.

You don�t need that blocker. Cause with or without it, you will mostly see SP....he is the mother of all postwhores.. Laughing

Wow...

It snowed where I am a week ago. I was amazed... it hasn't snowed like it did then since I was a kid. It was like a film, people doing all the things you only see on TV, even a little girl in mittens making snow angels.

I wish it snowed more often than every five years here.

That's all you got? That's why you never put the main door at ground level.

"Wei�er Dreck" is a quote of Herbert Rosendorfer, isn't it?
"die Gegenden n�rdlich des Alpenhauptkammes sind f�r menschliche Besiedlung ungeeignet" Laughing

Agreed!

But thanks for quoting this correctly, although I've known the quote for years I never knew who said it. Thumbs up

^^^ lol...nope....but may I quote what my dad said to his drill instructor when he was in the austrian army, stationed in Kufstein tyrol, after being seriously pissed off by all the mountains and climbing those:
"Jetzt wei� ich warum die Tiroler so deppad sind, weil es ihnen beim vielen rauf und runter von den Bergen das Hirn rausgesch�ttelt hat". ("Now I know, why the tyroleans are so dumb: because with all this uphill and downhill they shook their brains out of their heads")
His drill instructor was tyrolean, and my dad didn�t get out of the casern site for quite a few weeks Wink

We had some nice freezing rain for several hours which made driving quite fun as your windshield wipers were good for roughly 12 minutes before you couldn't see anything...

Yeah. Rosendorfer is one of my favourite authors, as he had been a judge at Munich court (Amtsgericht) and later went to Naumburg court (Oberlandesgericht Naumburg). Best of him in my eyes is "Das Messingherz - oder Die kurzen Beine der Wahrheit" and "Der Ritt der Amazonen". I think that the a/m quote is from "Ich geh' zu Fu� nach Bozen" . I'll look it up.
