Driving to work this morning... (Yup, back to the drawing board, 4th day)... I was driving in snow, sleet and freezing rain... On the way home it was high winds and rain and, just a bit ago, there was thunder and lighting with heavy rain... :hammer:
Unpredictable as always but we don't have to worry about hurricanes, floods or earthquakes... I guess that is good.

Better than the folks in upstate New York, what was it, 10 Feet or so of snow several weeks back. I was just there this week, I don't think that stuff will melt until mid-July.

Slammed into a stopped car in the middle of the street. Crushed the front of the neon and both air bags went off. The air bag burned a hole in my coat. Not sure why.....
Yes, I love Michigan.....

I wish I could move out of here. My folks are out in Arizona, basking in all it's wonderfulness. Supposed to be in the 80's there next week. Forcast for Michigan during that time is for us all to freeze our asses off. It's pretty here in the Summer and Fall, but November through April you can pretty much flush it down the toilet.

Michigan weather motto: If you don't like the weather wait 5 minutes it will change. Being from the Great Lake State I can say this, it is a great state....to be from. 75° here at the beach in So Cal today and a goregous day to take the car for a cruise at the beach....and no snow tires needed :poke:

Hey Chris,
The new job is in Livonia at AM General. I'm designing Humvee's now...:ssst: Started a week ago Monday and went on OT this week. 64 hrs won't be hard to take for while. It'll help get me caught up after the unenjoyment stint.
It's a very interesting place to work. I am already asking for a couple of 50 cals to be mounted on the roof of my van for "urban testing". They sure would help clear the road for the drive home...:machine:
