Re: Where are you from?
It got really icy and nasty last year after New Years. I couldn't ride my bike to classes because of all the hills on campus...plus, I don't have the greatest balance in the best of conditions, so it's even worse when you put something slippery with no traction underneath me. >_>
And 3:30PM is very wrong...but that's what happens when you live so far north....Can you see the Aurora borealis where you are? o.O 'cos that would be neat. ^_^

Re: Where are you from?
Crap, the sun has set and I haven't started studying yet... this is a bad sign...
You can see Aurora Borealis this far north. Quite brilliant ones apparently! My friends saw some last week, but I missed them. You just have to keep paying attention...
I have quite good balance on my bike, but we'll see what happens when all traction is removed. There's one spot under a bridge with this huge, slick ice patch that you can't see well. It seems to stay there permanently. The other day someone crashed there, going the other way as me. I though... I just narrowly escaped the same fate. I've started biking a lot more cautiously than I normally do, especially around corners.
Is anyone here from a place that gets hurricanes?

After a great pizza and beer "all-night-study-session" I produced a "Great Wind" 5 minutes into the test later that morning....some would say it was 'Hurricane-Like-Conditions'....
I'm just kidding. It was more like 10 minutes into the test.
Ok OK, seriously....I was awarded a the Humanitarian Medal by the USCG in '92 for helping out during/after a hurricane hit the east coast of the US. I live in upState NY now and am quite protected from those raging windy-wonders.
;D

Re: Where are you from?
Oh my, I'm so confuzzled....oh, well, such is life, and my life always tends to run like that. >_o
Fortunately, the closest thing to a hurricane I get where I live with my parents is the 40 and 50 mph gusts of wind that start blowing mid-November every year and don't let up until February or March. They tend to drop the temperature about 20 degrees (F)...no matter how much you're wearing, the wind just cuts right through you. It's because we live next to a giant hole in the ground...gorge-type-thingy. By comparison, Eugene is balmy and nearly tropical right now...30*F never felt so warm...Mwahahaha! XD
