    Yeah, we got snow, but southern Milwaukee got nailed, and you folks got blasted. I love snow, but glad we didn't get more, as I need to get into the woods to cut more. 8-10" I can walk in and deal with. Much more, not so much.

    Iirc, you got dumped on with 16+” in one storm. At that point in the year, before this storm hit, Amarillo had more snow than Milwaukee saw all season to date.
    :p

    Our news channels pounded that into our heads, which is why I knew that. :)

    I lived in Amarillo in the late '80's for 1.5 years. Saw almost 2 full Winters. Had a 16-18" blizzard the first Winter I was there, and it shut the town down for almost 3 days as they had almost no snow removal equipment. However; 4 days after the snow, it was almost 70*F, melted the snow, and there was flooding all over town!!

    We are supposed to get just a little here, with a bit more up north. We'd gladly take more of your snow up in northern Wisconsin so you wouldn't get more. Unfortunately it doesn't work like that.

    I feel for you but you can keep that all of it. We got 6" which is tolerable.

    Sorry for the delayed reply...been out shoveling all morning. It's great having a 15 year old son around to help :yes:
    Yup haven't played a game since early January. Was playing 4-5 times a week before I tore my rotator cuff. Not while playing but while coaching my son's team :doh: and not even in a cool way....I fell through the door in the boards :headbang: :picard: Getting an MRI this week to see to extent of the damage but doc thinks it's completely torn. I want to get it fixed ASAP or at least before golf and X27 season ;)

    Sucks getting :BrianK:
