A bit too early for a headcount yet. Many will be on the fence until summer before they can determine whether or not they will make it. We'll probably start a new Dragon Con '08 thread here and on the 76th board in the spring to get an idea of who is going to make it for the parade.

Yep, sure am. We get snow so infrequently in this part of the state and I always long for snow around this time of year. It so pretty and really helps to set the tone for the holiday.

But of course it stopped around 2pm and what little accumulation we had (about a half inch) promptly melted.

*sighs*

Snowing here in PA.

Had the kid's karate class cancelled, had my meeting tonight cancelled. So I put a pork roast in the over, went all out and made mashed potatoes, gravy, and pried open a can of cranberry sauce. It really hit the spot on a snowy evening.

Now I can't decide if I want the kidlet's school cancelled tomorrow or not...

mornin' soldiers.

When we get snow down here (once every ten years or so), it's usually gone by mid-day. Still, even the slightest flurry or chance of ice and people are at the stores en masse buying milk, bread, and eggs. Also, they tend to overdo it when salting the ice, using what appears to be a whole bag on a patch roughly the size of a basketball. :D

And I'll tell you something too. That's starting to annoy me about UFOs, the fact that they cross galaxies or universes to visit us, and always end up in places like ... Fyffe f*cking Alabama. Maybe these aren't super-intelligent beings, you know what I mean?
