That's like "a dingo ate my baby" crazy.

We used LP Smartside. Really good 5 years in. https://lpcorp.com/products/siding-trim/products

I'm trying to figure out which is worse, boilerplate or boilerplate with lackluster grooming. Maybe it's the latter since it at least has the word "grooming" in it.

WTF are they installing? And WTF kind of plow are they buying?

Do they refer to the championships as the "national high school championships?"

Not as cold as Paul Smith's. I've seen it -5 in L.P. and -17 at Paul Smith's.

A beverage cart for a redneck golf course?

In the absence of any other lift experts on this blog, I think a tram is one that has two support cables and a haul rope. A gondola has a haul rope only. The Whistler Peak-to-Peak has 22 seated, 6 standing. So.....yes?

I read the post and thought it was a good idea. I read the first comment and though it might not be. Then I read the 2nd comment and thought it was a good idea again.

Absolutely. Knowledge without arrogance. Yes, I like the deep window sills. Our place is Adirondacky and with a walk-out basement. The deep sills make it feel like a house built in the 1880's, but with level floors and no drafts.

About 5 years ago the state had a program where they sent you a hockey puck sized thing that trapped radon. You put it in the deepest bowels of your basement and then sent it back for analysis. They would then send a reading of your radon level. I think you paid for shipping. Maybe $10 in...

It seems to me that there is more efficiency these days, but that efficiency is plowed back into horsepower rather than increased gas mileage. For instance, where it may have been 20 miles/gallon with a 200 horse engine, now you get 20 miles/gallon on 300 horsepower.....I'm making up these...

I think a Pisten Bully 600 with winch is about $350k. But it comes with drink holders and that "new cat" smell.

They had low profile ski tips in the '40's? Side note - Ripitz, do you have asbestos-wrapped plumbing?

One of my favorite bumper stickers, "Yes, this is my truck. No, I won't help you move."

Don't most cars in Europe have manual transmissions? Either no, or most people power shifted.

I laugh at this well known description. It's the most ridiculous 3 words in skiing.....a green run with a headwall.
