My point is still valid.

These idiots calling for his ban need to find a hobby.

While that maybe true, how many folks have you called for a ban of? Pot, kettle?

I do it in fun. The most I will do is make a thread in PFI and ask the mods to check something out.

Do a search.

Yesterday morning, my son reported that you could see the grass at his school at 9am when he went to class. By 7pm last night, they had 1 1/2 feet of snow on the ground there. Holiday Valley (Ellicottville) has received quite a few feet of snow already. They opened the ski resort weeks early. After I finish stuffing my summer sausage in a few minutes, I'm heading back out to see if I can get another deer. The snow on the ground makes it easier to see them. After tomorrow, it can get as warm as it wants for the rest of the season.

:shocked: :eek:

Usually I have 60 - 70 hours and it makes for a nice check before Christmas.
This year I have no OT and will get no extra Christmas money.
We NEED some snow!
Our plow trucks and graders are gathering dust, ski area are not open.
Global warming be damned!

Move to Alaska

They have a hot Governor as a bonus.

what makes you think everyone isn't doing it for fun? When it comes right down to it, I don't give two shit about the politics of this cesspool.

its not that complicated...one dollar amount post isn't the same as like 10 in a row....
its not like he wrote $0.00...and had an OP like: that how much money i get for neffing...


Are you kidding me?

When it was just RECENTLY frowned upon and threads were locked, he posts a $ thread and is handed a ticket to Ooompa Loompa land?................. ??

no i'm not kidding you, i'm not going to cry and get bent all out of shape over a dollar amount post, priorities people....lol


Maybe you need to be banned for posting something you think will fly, but in turn, get banned for a week or two, buttercup.

thats my whole point though, if i got banned for a week or two my lifes not going to stop just because I couldn't post on AT...

Then why do people act like their world is ending when they get a vacation?

Getting vacations is part of membership here for me. I mess around a lot and dance on the proverbial line that DrPizza referred to. Sometimes I cross it and the mods are forced to take action. Its nothing to take personal.

Finally, some snow.
12 hours OT yesterday and 12 today.
It's snowing below 3000 feet and people are crashing everywhere. They never learn to drive.

Their inability to drive helps pay your bills, so it's all good.

I'd kill for overtime pay... coming in late has its perks, but the times I stay late or have to come in to cover other people's shifts don't come close to making up for it.

and my new boss is talking about making me work weekends next year :|

I figured with all the snow they're reporting in the Sierra that you're finally getting your wish.

It's been raining pretty steadily here most of the day. Hell, they've even said it's a possibility that we'll get snow down here in the valley...now THAT'S scary...these muthafuckas can't drive very well on DRY roads, rainy roads are like a demolition derby...and snow? :Q I'll stay home.
