If your religion requires that you hate someone, you need a new religion.

When the people fear their government, that is tyranny. When government fears the people, that is freedom.

You haven't had a cold beer until you've had one from your stash in the snow ::nod::

A little ice with that, and that's all it takes for cancellations.

Ike, I especially appreciate your photo of the iced over trees. Years ago, I would sometimes walk over to Grant Park in Chicago during my lunch break. The trees could be covered with inches of ice. I thought the park looked beautiful, like scenes from Dr. Zhivago. Thanks for the memories.

Zeus would lobe a good fluffy snowfall. Just out of curiosity, what is your average nightime low in January?

The average low here for January is 37. We see teens and 20's but it usually doesn't last.

Seems you folks usually get a little more than us. I was actually born in Sherman and lived several places between there and Bonham before we moved down to the metroplex.

It showed on the radar like north of121 was kind of the line where the snow got heavy. I’m about 20 miles west of Sherman.
