FUN!! Then a few months from now, you can use that snow shovel to clean out your driveway. How long is your shovel, Mike.

Plenty long enough to get the job done, Tony....with length to spare.

The folks who make the Black Diamond D-9 say Rule #1 is: Unless weight is absolutely paramount, always go for the biggest snow shovel you can get!



BTW, you can pick this baby up for a cool $92.48 on-line from a UK mountain gear distributor!

Although the snow shovel is the least popular and most labor intensive, it is still the best tool for snow removal where other equipment can't operate.


Heart failure due to overexertion is the most common and serious health problem associated with snow shoveling. Men are more likely to suffer heart attacks than women. When shoveling snow, follow these commonsense guidelines regardless of your physical condition:

- Dress for the occasion. Wearing clothing in layers is usually best because it allows better evaporation of perspiration. Shoes, boots or overshoes should have rubber soles (not leather or hard compositions) because rubber soles reduce slipping and falling.

- Use a lightweight shovel made of aluminum that has a Teflon coating. If the shovel doesn't have a Teflon coating, rub the surface with paraffin (wax) or coat it with a silicon spray. These surface conditioners prevent snow buildup and save time and effort.

- Use a shovel of modest size. Don't try to heap the snow on the shovel. The weight of the load lifted -- rather than the number of movements made -- is the key to overexertion. Lightening the load reduces the strain on stomach, back and abdominal muscles. This reduces the pressure in the chest cavity and circulatory demand on heart walls.

- When lifting the shovel, use the entire body, letting the back and legs share the work. If the snow is deep, take small loads and rest often.

- Don't keep working to the point of exhaustion. Take frequent rests and go inside to warm up. Cold and overexertion are hard on the heart.

So Ron, Zen,

Did you feel it down there? I could time the gap between the P waves and S waves. So I knew it was over 100 miles away.

I felt nothing Dennis. All is quiet on the West Coast Front.

Remember Tony, it's not the length of your snow shovel that counts it's how you use it.

True.

Dennis, is that your rifle collection?

By the way Dennis, have you seen Bowling For Columbine?

Factual error: When the camera looks through the scope of the Russian sniper it is visible that the scope is of the Gewerr '43, the German sniper rifle, not the MOS Russian sniper rifle.

Most cats with mere 6 ft. snow plow would say something like that.

Welcome to page 12

Dennis, what in the world are we looking at?

I stared through the mangy case and couldn't quite get that girl's attention. Like I said, if they ask for your number, chuck the dvd at their forehead. It really works!

That's a photo of some of the M1903 rifle storage at the Springfield Armory, Springfield MA. I feel so inadequate: I only have one of them.
