Snow Country

The other day I woke up to what you see in the pictures above and below. Good thing I live in the part of Aomori that "doesn't get much snow," huh?

um, and this is different from chicago, how? truth be told, we are having a very warm winter, thankfully.

Wuss, that's nothing. Quit crying, baby. Want some cheese with your whine? Here's the world's smallest violin playing just for you. Here's a quarter, call someone who gives a damn. Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Rubber baby buggy bumpers. I see dead people.

and dave, it's really not all that different from the midwest in terms of weather; truth be told, it's probably less cold. however, without insulation or central heating, it sure seems more miserable

That japanese snow looks gay. Sorry!

yes, it should be quite clear from the photographs that unlike the north american variant, japanese snow enjoys the company of the same sex.

I second the "wuss" comment. Last winter in Noheji almost every night in January close to 1 meter of snow would fall. This year hasn't been as bad, but if I ever see that little snow on my car in the morning I let go a big sigh of relief.
