Take my snow, please?!?

HS

Speaking of snow, who out there is experiencing a drought?? I have over 2/12 feet (yes, over 30 inches!!) of new snow you can have, cheap! We've gotten at least 4 feet of snow from several storms prior to this, and with the cold weather, it hasn't completely melted (still probably about a foot on the ground before Monday's storm). I haven't seen grass since late November, early December!! I am so sick and tired of snow falling and accumulating...of shoveling and being cold. What ever happened to the fun times I used to have with snow...oh yea, I got old!!

There's got to be someone out there who wants this snow...I'd be happy to rent a U-haul or a refridgerated truck to ship it to you!

Parabeagle

Load up all you can lay your hands on and PLEASE ship it out to Oregon. Our primary ski spot, Mt. Hood, has not had decent snow all year. Many of the runs have been closed all winter. And the hotel our company owns is doing HORRID business! x:'(

Chari

Hey, Chari! I was here first. We need it for economic reasons, not cosmetic. x;-)

cebudragonlady

Parabeagle-
Certainly, there is more than enough snow in New Jersey
to cover Mt. Hood and my front yard !

Chari

Parabeagle

I suppose. So long as your front yard isn't the size of eastern Oregon, anyway.

Leslie

Sorry - I have to put in my request. We are in the midst of a horrendous drought in Arizona - even in the high country - anyone remember last year's forest fires??? Our two major ski resorts would love to take some off the white stuff off your hands. While in wouldn't last long in the desert (we're supposed to be a balmy 70 today with a SLIGHT chance for rain - which usually means it might cloud up a bit) but we sure could use the water!

HRGirl

Now Now children....no fighting...If HS runs out...I've got mounds of it that I can ship!! I'm in the same boat as HS...sick and tired of snow and ice. I'm almost as sick of my kid having snow days and delayed openings. Doesn't the school know I have to work!

I can't wait to get to the Jersey Shore and soak up the sun, sand and some funnel cake and fudge.

BRING ON SUMMER!!!!

safety

Our area (Western Kansas) is experiencing one of the worst droughts in recorded history. The economy here is heavily dependent on moisture to grow crops. Agriculture is the main stay of the economy, not counting the natural gas field that is shrinking at an alarming rate.

Please send some moisture our way, pray to the rain Gods, do a rain dance, etc., we're desperate, and, oh yea, my yard is dying from lack of a good drink!

Riley

I second what safety posted. I think mother nature was teasing us earlier this week when she sent .25 inches of rain our way. We needed more like 2.5 inches!!! Any kind of moisture would be wonderful. I have been doing my rain dances for about two years now, and still to no avail. Maybe if each of you did a rain dance we could send a big message to mother nature.

Just a warning, if we don't get moisture soon, there will be no wheat to make bread, no corn for your corn flakes, no sunflowers, for your sunflower seeds! Okay, so maybe I am exaggerating just a little, but its out of pure desparation!!

SEND MOISTURE NOW!!!

Gillian

OK, I'll take some. You can save some shipping costs maybe making one shipment to me or cebudragonlady. Pomona isn't very far from Riverside.

HS

Okay, let's see if I got the orders straight...

It's a double order for parabeagle and the ski resorts (although, you could always come out and ski by our resorts!)

Chari needs some her way, so a truckload it is as well as to Leslie, Safety, Riley and Gillian...

Thanks HR Girl, we may need to pool our resources to get these orders filled.

I think with all these orders to fill, I'll be out of snow just in time for the next snow storm they're predicting for Monday. A measly 8 inches or so they're calling for this time ... x:'(

Bah Humbug...can I say that? NO MORE SNOW...PLEASE!!!

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 02-21-03 AT 03:05PM (CST)[/font][p]Here's an idea for when you have your next snow storm - make an HR Hero snowman! We had a nice snow here in Nashville several weeks ago and couldn't resist making an HR Snowman! You'll notice by the brochure in his hand that he is a smart HR Snowman - he's already trained all his supervisors using our Ten Danger Zones for Supervisors video set. x;-) BTW, the HR Hero t-shirts are available for $15 if you'd like one. I don't have an order page set up on the website yet, but if you'd like to buy one, you can call us at 800/274-6774 to order one. They come in one size - XL.

Christy,

Now I have seen it all! That's really cute. We should have a contest for the best HR snowman!

System

Or a contest with everyone wearing their HR Hero t-shirt in a unique place - the pyramids of Egypt, in a police lineup, under the Superman statue in Metropolis, etc. Kind of like "Where's Waldo?" only using HR Hero!

Christy, that is without a doubt the most merciless, baldfaced hawking of commercial merchandise I've ever seen. You should be proud. x;-)

System

Why, thank you! I thought the cute little snowman would soften the blow and distract you, but you didn't succomb to my wiles, so I'll have to learn how to be a little more sneaky!

HRGirl

Did anyone else see the guy on Ebay selling bags of snow for ten bucks? Someone stole our idea!! I wonder if anyone bought any?

Leslie

Absolutely not! His shipping methods must be suspect!

HS

Damn! You mean I could have been making money off of all this snow! Guess it's a good thing I'm not in sales and marketing.

Parabeagle

Nah, for that you need to get some pointers from Christie. x;-)
