Oh shit! How many fingers am I holding up?

Isn't the answer to that question always "One"?

You beat me to it, but yes...yes it is.

Hey now, Texas is a lot warmer than most places until it isn't. Then it's much colder. Texas is a land of one-upsmanship, you see. And you've beaten me again, you Texan, you.

Me Texan?? God no

Been below freezing with sleet and rain the last few days. Most schools and Govt shut down since Tuesday

Welcome to Texas winters. It can be 70F one hour, 40F and hour later and into the 20's the next day. Then reverse the process.

Y'all down in the greater Austin area got slammed. Up north (I'm nearer Fort Worth) we were supposed to get it bad, but the temps dropped lower than forecast and we received primarily sleet with just 1/4" or so of freezing rain. My good friend who lives in SW Austin sent pictures of all of the trees down due to ice accumulation. Not pretty at all.

So today, while we're thawing...they're sawing.

Schnellyfam update - Mrs. S. took a header on the ice, and now I know how much it costs for a front tooth dental implant. Also, the dog refuses to die and in fact continues to get better.

"Getting better" sometimes involves Tsar Bomba-strength antibiotics resulting in foot-long trails of carbonated liquid dog sh*t on my artificial turf, it turns out.

Jeebus!

I hope the wife is ok. That had to hurt. For GOD's sake buy some slip on ice creepers and leave them at the mountain house. I would swear a few posts above someone else did a Fosbury Flop. Use them! Yaktrax are good.

On PeePEye: good for him. Garden hose for the artificial turf or tear it out and put something in the ground that grows.

Californians...sheesh.

Speaking of old farts bitching about their ailments...how you feeling, Billy?
