Welcome to the new week, home computer toasted this a.m. - had to shut it down when I started smelling smoke! Oh well, time to upgrade I guess.
Have a great day all, my U.S. friends enjoy your holiday - some of us are working! Posted by chrisL (Member # 97) on 17 February, 2003 06:10 AM:

Blizzard Warning in effect. 20-26 expected by the time it ends tonight.
Our friends around Wash DC are really getting slammed. Its a real doozy of a storm.

Morning all.
Getting slammed with sleet, snow and freezing rain here in Virginia. Lost electricity earlier but now have power back.
Did manage to get the 2002 and the 71 home in one piece from the Asphalt Angels Car Show yesterday. The 02 took first place and the 71 took second place in their division.

Yikes....it's a blizzard!
Like Chris said, 20 - 24 inches expected. If it weren't the end of winter with me anxious for spring I'd enjoy it.

G'morning!
We dodged the big storm up here. Friends were supposed to drive back from Myrtle Beach S.C. on the weekend, but are currently stranded somewhere between here and there.
Drive safe!

Good morning from Sin City. I think I'm all Vegased out.
Did see the SSR, the CSX (awesome), and a few other new GM vehicles last night when helping a GM guy with setting up his laptop in a kiosk.

Good morning everybody!
Kind of an anti-climactic NASCAR race yesterday
But at least Mikee won! Posted by sscamaro (Member # 1330) on 17 February, 2003 10:11 AM:
Good Morning. Still snowing here. Suppose to get 2 ft or more. Had to did out my heat pump last night at midnight and again this morning. It was covered with a 4 ft snow drift. First I had to shovel out my outside door,which had a 3 ft snow drift in front of it. Will try and get out tomarrow. This really sucks. Come on spring.

Ditto on the anti-climactic. I was going to stay on the treadmill for the whole race ...it wasn't so bad but if they had gone 500 miles Ida been toast
I'm still trying to figure out why an old fart like me cheers for "Junior". I really need to learn to pull for one of the "old guys".

What's a heat pump? We have a propane fired gas burner.

Think of a heat pump as air conditioning in reverse. It works on the same principle expect it takes "heat" or energy from the outside air and rejects that heat into the house.
Of course, it works on the assumption that there is some "heat" in the outside air to extract!! This is not always the case in parts of Canada in the winter.
