It's been unusually warm today ... I think we've broken the 35°F barrier. However, we've bascially gone from snow to rain, no sun in sight.

We had so much snow that on Sunday, they dropped 140 TONS of salt on the roads in Switzerland. (And there is an acute shortage of salt now - some cantons have run out, even though the salt production is running at capacity).

It's going to take some SERIOUS rainfall to get that off of the roads now...

Had to turn on the air conditioner today in the company van while driving around LA. It's really warming up. Plus I took tomorrow off to go ride!

(maybe I shouldn't post that!)

I had to turn on the exhaust fans in my hangar to pull the hot air out.

(I don't think I should've said that either)

Aaaahh!!! My eyes! What is that bright ball in the sky? Is that this "sun" thingie I've heard so much about?

Wait, yes, I remember ... the SUN! And temperatures above 40°F! There is a light at the end of the tunnel ... and it isn't an on-coming train!

Geez, I want to get out and dance! Yes! Sunlight! Warmth!

Regina, take off that wool sweater! Springtime is coming!

Wait ... who are you guys? What's with the white coats? NO! I don't want to wear another jacket ... especially one with such long arms and lots of buckels! It looks like some costume from the last Michael Jacksoff tour... aaarrrggghhhh!!!

You need to ease into this sun thing! Also don't opersate any type of machinery while thinking of ReGina and her wool sweater, especially since you are visualizing removal of said sweater!

Huh? Wha? Who is that . . . standing in the exact same jacket as me (they told me this wa a one-of-a-kind when they put it on me last year) . . . with his neck chained to the floor immediately in front of him . . . is it . . . could it be . . . Jim? . . . "Inspiron"?

Looks like Jim.

Psst . . . hey, buddy . . . your name Jim?

Ya' ain't gotta' steak samwich on ya' do ya' bud? They only feed us rice and stuff here. Do you hear the elves too? What do they tell you to do? I'd show what they tell me to do, but I can't get my feet behind my head with these stupid chains on.

Abracadabra, ala-ka-zam!!

w/b it's been a long time since you've been here. And don't worry you've got like only 45-60 days before you can get out and ride like the wind!!
