Catholictothecore Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 [quote name='sixpence' timestamp='1296831533' post='2208661'] yipes... I suggest all southern state residents be required to spend one winter of their lives, before the age of 21, in upstate NY in order to familiarize them with snow and ice and avoid future fatalities and accidents.

Adrestia Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 [quote name='franciscanheart' timestamp='1296845725' post='2208753'] Are you stalking me? [/quote] No - I just want to change my screen name without making a new profile and losing my history. I'm actually a horrible stalker, too lazy I guess. All things considered, Galveston got off relatively easy. This morning the cops were only allowing one car at a time to cross the causeway, but a little over an hour ago they were able to open multiple lanes. They are expecting it to ice over again tonight.

cmotherofpirl Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 [quote name='franciscanheart' timestamp='1296829622' post='2208654'] That half inch of snow we were supposed to get last night? Oh yeah. FIVE. And that ice I mentioned here earlier? It's under the snow, obviously. Guess who isn't a very happy camper today. [/quote] lol I remember several years ago they couldn't do dog sled races in Alaska because of the mud and it was 5 degrees in Pennsylvania.

[/quote] I spent one year in Maryland. Ice... it's still a problem. And where I am at now, we don't have beautiful snow to make the winter any easier in any way. It's wet and cold, full of mushy mud and half-frozen water puddles. My poor rabbit got wet from the driving rain, which was blown up under the lean-to roof, and she had ice-sickles on her fur!!

[/quote] You have to first upload the image to a site like flickr. Then you can grab the direct URL provided and put it into here. Just click the little picture button on the post editor (looks like this: [img]http://www.phatmass.com/phorum/public/style_images/baisik/rte_icons/picture.png[/img]) and it'll show up here. [quote name='fides quarens intellectum' timestamp='1296851155' post='2208792'] LUCKY!! I've lived in Colorado for three and a half years and i'm still waiting for a good 5" snow storm! Except, they don't get ice here, so yeah. [/quote] Move to Texas. Last year we got over a foot of fresh snow overnight.

I would always suggest asking politely before just creating a new account. Also, take into account that if they changed a name every time someone requested it, our two admins would be working ten times as hard. It's only happened a few times in PM history that I know of, but again, ask politely and you never know. Also, you should probably have significant reason for wanting it to change. As an aside, my condo was flooded today when my upstairs neighbor had a pipe burst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmaD2006 Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Ok ... I just left Houston after being there a week. And guess what. At 34 degrees, NJ feels HOT. I feel like pulling the shorts out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
