    How could you miss the 2 huge industrial power plants just off the interstate?

    I love those nights when the wind is just right and the entire hill smells like Tara Reid on a Saturday night.

    Snowmaking has begun

    Just to let everyone know....Perfect North has begun snowmaking! Hopefully these low temps will stick around and we'll be riding within a week. Webcams

    Sweet. Now as long as it stays cold....
    Any bets on when they open? I'm guessing the weekend before Christmas...

    Last year they were able to open with just one solid week of snowmaking and they've upgraded their snowmaking capacity again this year. My only fear is that there's the possibility of rain this weekend. My optimistic opening day would be next Friday.....my realistic side is telling me 2-3 weeks. The week before xmas is usually when it happens, but then again they haven't been able to make snow this early in the season for awhile. I'm just hoping the skis I burned for Ullr will do the trick.

    From what I have read they started up the guns to test the whole system out, especially because they put in a lot of new pipes and they did have a pipe burst. They also made a pretty good amount of snow last night. The easiest place to find out whats going on is on the Freezing Point forum.

    In July, police in Lawrence, Kan., gave Ezekiel Rubottom's foot back to him, convinced that, contrary to a neighbor's inquiry, it wasn't evidence of a crime. Rubottom, 21, had tried to explain that he'd had his clubbed left foot amputated and merely wanted to keep it as a memento in a bucket of formaldehyde on his front porch. A spokesman for Lawrence Memorial Hospital told the Journal-World newspaper that there have been "women that want their uterus ... people take (home) tonsils ... they take (home) appendixes." Rubottom added a porcelain horse and a can of beer to his bucket to make it what he called "a collage of myself." [Lawrence Journal-World, 7-26-05]

    Swerve, Glad to hear Miami still has some skiers besides the kids wearing their North Face to the Stadium or Brick Street (I think thats what they call First Run now). Do you ride out at Hueston Woods at all? Have you met biker bob yet?

    Ohhh Yeahh. Is the Freshmen Class up to standards this year. Enjoy Miami. Women in the real world look nothing like they do at Miami.

    How is Mac N Joes?

    Have you been to cirlce bar and seen Darryl the bartender yet??

    Have some Bagel and Deli for me (Sarah's Secert or the Conrad Bagel is where the shit is at).

    Perfects opening the friday after Thanksgiving is looking like a real possibility if we dont get any rain but it is still pretty much up in the air right now. The 10 day forecast looks promising though.

    lebowski I fucking cant stand all the kids walking around in North Face everything(fleece, jackets, backpacks). Im on the sailing team so Im out at Hueston woods and I did meet the guy that owns the bike rental place, he seems pretty cool. The ladies are still looking as good as ever and I know what you mean, whenever I leave I realize how good all the ladies look here.
    What was your major?
