- I'll tell ya, it must be the nippy air and snow up thataway. Or maybe being
- on an ISLAND, which I think Nova Scotia is, isn't it?
-
- Proximity to the Moosehead factory is also a likely factor.

- Well, I am about to the point where I am gonna drop dead if I don't get some
- skiing in! I couldn't go last year at all because I got sick between
- quarters, but now I've got that out of the way for this year and I am really
- gonna be into it. I just hope there's enough snow at Tahoe. A few years ago
- I used to go skiing every weekend. Now I just get two weeks out of the year.
- That's a real peeve.
-
- The anti-peeve here is the fact that when I do finally get onto some snow,
- I have so much damned fun I can't stand it. And dammit, I'm the best
- skiier I know! Skilled, fearless, and willing to go into the Jaws of Death
- or some other (appropriately) dangerously named trails, that's me!
-
- You know, I am getting excited just thinking about it.
