Yeah, many of us drummers had been wondering why Lifeson and Rush called it quits so suddenly. Surely, superhuman NP wouldn't let a little arthritis get in the way. That is just like Neil Peart, though. Very sad.

I know NP claimed to have arthritis issues, similar to Phil Collins for ex., but you have to wonder if he had been battling cancer for a while too. He was a very private person, not sure he'd put that out there. Great drummer and musician. RIP

Everything about this winter has been really good. Burning through 1.5 months of early-midwinter mild and nearly snowless, thunderstorm outbreaks. late Jan and Feb it snows itself out for a few weeks before we blaze into sun angle and baseball talk. No one can complain

If it snowed year round they'd be chasing rain

The summer talk and enthusiasm is very refreshing to see. Just a few short more weeks of this and we get to the good stuff, temp talk and lawn care

DC next week...

it's here...panic mode

brutal

wrong thread

Torchy 46.0 today

what a winter. one to remember

Happy dew year

1.7" for the last storm

the good news is it can't really get much worse

The best we can hope for is storms cutting way west and being on the convective side

Really need those AO-NAO regions to stay +++ to run a ratter, let's hope

I'd rather forget

i'm good. NE NY NJ corridor is home (sports or not) to the largest population of tumultuous, uptight crybabies on the planet, surely whatever melts going on are fit to scale. lol

I dont think that after two decades of making the NFL look like child's play, anyone really minds them losing

Yeah, some will try to spin it to fit an agenda, but overall a meh month of general disappointment for winter fans. Even our snowstorm was dragged out and pretty boring.

Winter weenie anticipation "Man, can't wait til winter. It's gon be awesome. Tryna contain my excitement but ...snow and cold and lots of it...huge winter...sleds...skis...mountains...what a winter upcoming!! Everything is awesome !!Perfection!!!" Winter weenie verification "Ugh what is this crap...The Pacific blows this winter, NAO is higher than Snoop Dogg, every storm is cutting like scissors, the models are weakening the cold thrust again..fuk another ice storm, ski areas can't even make snow in this airmass, why is it 55 on Christmas EVERY winter, wow punt the next two weeks ..what does it matter, this winters a ratter .."

"undergound"...owned by IBM..heh. maybe time to freshen up that name
