Nemer & Pat,

One benefit to winter is that you don't have to mow the grass....and there are no bugs. Now if I could just figure out how to make the snow miss the sidewalks and driveway I wouldn't mind this winter business all that much!

Heck, so far this year it has been extremely mild....too much so. No snow and by and far temps that during the day hit the mid-50's most of the time. Very unusual for this time of year, but I am not complaining.

I keep having to tell the kids that snow will be coming and they don't have to get all worked up about it. It will be here....I suppose if you don't have to shovel the stuff and all you do is play in it, you want it ASAP. I guess I did as well when I was a kid....

Nemer....better keep up with the Jones's.....and I don't mean Jerry.

Buy more lights! Make this a retailer's dream Christmas and send me some goodies!

Pat, me too...thinking long side, however, that is a gutt call only.... SPX 1140...if we get near that again, I think it is a definite buy....

Good Luck.

-Scott

EDIT - Putting lights out is not the problem....it is taking them down in January or Februry that is the problem. It is too cold, there is too much snow and basically it is just plain unpleasant. Most of the years putting them out can be accomplished on a 50+ day....taking them down always seems to be on a less than 20+ day. Ugly stuff.....and of course you cannot wear gloves...so the fun just escalates! :)
