Default 70 degrees and sunny?!

I should take the Corvette to work. It costs me 45 minutes of extra driving in my DD after dropping the kids off but- really- it's totally worth it.

Frig off. It was 12 degrees and snowing when I went to work.

Make sure to give the throttle a few extra stomps for those of us trapped in the snow belt!

I will! In all likelihood tomorrow! My inlaws are up in Erie, PA with all those harsh winters and lake effect snow so I feel for you!

That's why I don't live in Syracuse anymore. I sure don't miss the snow and cold.
