The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

We're on ice

What I hate more than anything else is snow shoveling.  It's not that bad when winter just starts and the snow is new and loose.  But when it starts getting really freaking cold, it's like trying to shovel a big sheet of ice.  It took me 2 hours one time just to reach from the front door to the car so I could leave! :bang

EDIT:  And yeah I did it in a t-shirt and jeans.  No coat or gloves or anything.  It wasn't that bad until about an hour in.

You say you are resistant to the cold but are you also resistant to getting a cold?

Anyway, from where I live its been in the low 50's and high 70's lately so no snow and no shoveling for me! :nyah
That is why I'd rather live in the south side!

Was  warm winter so far, but we've had some very cold days here very lately and got a slight bit of snow last night.  Just enough to lightly cover anything outside in what looked like a thin layer of powder.  Rarely snows here.  Hopefully it'll be warming up over the next few days.
