Another rant: Just shoot me now

[roccit_53 at hotmail.com (C Boyko)]

Okay, okay, I get it, I've annoyed you. THAT is low, hitting me in the "cars 
that you can wash without freezing to them" department, and then on the 
botanical angle, heck I can't ever grow decent azaleas here anyways. But I 
have crocus peeking through the snow.

Aad Marc, this morning, it's -6C , but it only feels like -15C (the official 
wind chill). So tasks involving fine manual dexterity/ brittle plastic are 
gonna have to wait. This is just cruel.

PS Nice pictures!
