We have a layover in Cinncy so hopefully everything is okay there. I honestly don't know why we have to fly through cinncy but I actually pricelined the flight so I didn't exactly have options.

Chisoxfn Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 By the way...shipps, would you guys be interested in possibly hitting up a bhawks or Bulls game? I have no idea if they are even playing when I'm there but I've never been to the United Center before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heads22 Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Yeah, same here, it was like below zero for the longest time. Last night it was 48 at 1 AM with incredibly thick fog. I think 2008 in terms of weather for Iowa won't be topped for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dasox24 Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 (edited) Reading all this stuff about the horrible winter weather the past few weeks in Chicago and other northern areas has made me finally realize I don't want to move back north when I graduate. Ever since I moved to Tennessee 10 years ago, I've always wanted to move north when I was done with college. I love snow and miss seeing it. However, I like warm weather. I don't want to have to deal with bad weather conditions for a few months out of the year. It was awesome stepping outside yesterday and having it be 73 degrees with a slight breeze. I was in shorts and a t-shirt and felt like I could stand outside forever. It was a beautiful Texas day and it made me dread the end of Christmas break and having to head back to Knoxville, where it will undoubtedly be cold (for my standards) the next 2 months.

So, you want warm weather, but the ability to go be in snow during the winter? Try someplace like CA, AZ or NM - still warm in winter, but you can get to snow in the mountains easily enough.

SnB Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 so our wedding reception hall is requiring wedding insurance. I'm not sure how common it is, I've never heard of it before. So if you've done it, where'd you get it from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBAHO Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 So I went out on Saturday Night with an Aussie Friend, and basically somehow he's going to a Debutante Ball today with a girl from St. Louis (don't ask me how). And for some reason, she brought 3 of her girlfriends across, and well they were a lot better looking than most of girls I have seen around in New York. So my question is, are all of the women in St. Louis this good looking (they were college seniors and all Cardinals' fans BTW). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
