Lucky you! i wouldn't mind some of that.
We are still waiting for some rain........I think the last time I saw rain was back in the UK in July. Rainy season has started in Qatar, and think the country had the first sniff of it somewhere, but I haven't seen any yet.

Wow! It's a little early for that. I used to live near there (Lake George area). Moved back in 2006 to South Carolina. You don't have to shovel sunshine

It's bloody cold, here. If this is global warming, you can keep it.

You have oil based heating in your home?

I suppose so... the other possibility is that he has such a big pan to fry bacon that he needs a ver big delivery of oil

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

If I were frying bacon, I could be the one delivering oil!

Yup. A lot cheaper than the electric heaters I had in the place I was renting before.

Yeah, electric would cost more. I've always only had gas heating though. How does gas compare to oil?
|

Well, we had electric heaters upstairs and in the downstairs bedroom and kitchen. Cost about $400 / mo in winter time.
In the living room was a propane heater, cost about $200 / mo in winter.
A full oil tank ($450) lasts about 2 months.
The propane heater was really nice in one respect -- it required no electricity. The pilot light powered this doohickey that generated a micro current for the thermostat, and enough to open/close the valve. So even when the power goes out, you have heat. Highly recommended, and I'm thinking having such a system installed in the living room downstairs, though in emergencies, the kitchen burners can work to heat the room too.

My youngest kid(16) will be glad to know that. His high school marching band is in the Macy's parade and he wants it to snow that day.

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

We'd need much better umbrellas that's for sure.

I thought birds crapping on my car was bad enough, could you imagine dealing with the results of flying cows?

Right?
How about cows flying into windows? How about the size of the feeders you'd need?

From Windows 8 on this would be a flat colorless Metro cow and could not damage any...
Oh, wait... you mean real glass windows?
We could probably scare them away like birds by sticking a threatening shape onto the windows. How about a big yellow M?
