Doesn't it normally look like that in New England in the winter?

I think it looks beautiful!

Yes it usually look something like that here in Winter and this is about the part for winter where I loose my marbles a little. This silliness looks good on a Christmas card but day in day out it gets old quick. Probably 60 days till I can ride again. Oh well I dont pay state income tax or sales tax. So I guess I can get through

I emptied 2 - 30 pound drums of R-22 Freon just to help your case.





Just being sarcastic, I only emptied one.

60 today here in Atlanta and sunny as hell! I didn't have my bike near me and didn't matter because I spent 12 hours yesterday and the day before studying and doing school work. But I did take the cycle to the gas station with my perforated jacket this evening and it felt great! Taking it into work tommorow!

I personally believe in and fully support man made global warming! Fuck winter.

Climate and weather are kinda the same, but different somehow.

Climate is the aggregate effect of temperature and precipitation across a geographical region or regions.

Weather is what people talk about in lieu of or as a segue to (or away from) meaningful conversation.

It does when the gulf stream slows down due to higher temperatures. Notice England had extremely high snow fall this year? I'm not crying about the causes of the average global temp changing, just pointing out an effect (or is that affect?).

Check out the heat blanket that it provides.

Shit. There's bulldozers driving over R-22 canisters in the dump field right now. I'm gonna go let my vehicle idle all night. I like my vehicle warm and toasty when I'm ready to roll in the morn.
