While I can certainly wait for the snow to fall...still got a couple of things that need doing on the outside of the house...nothing makes the un-kilted pause and think like seeing a kilted man happily slogging through the snow. Whether you are freezing or not (probably not), you absolutely cannot admit to being the least bit cold...it's sort of part of the code of kilted honor. As long as you have your top half well insulated, you probably won't feel it. A hat is de rigeur...time for that Balmoral or Highland Bonnet or something smashing in a tocque. WARM shoes are highly recommended...cold feet will make you really uncomfortable.

I don't know how many of you may have seen the Robin Williams bit on how golf got started (you may be able to find it on youtube) but he has a very distinctive way of saying "**** NO!" with a Scottish accent (you can guess the expletive) and I have, much to the annoyance of my dear wife, adopted this as my standard answer to, "...aren't you cold?"

As to driving: snow falls, drivers' IQ's drop by 50%. And it snows here...those of you down South may get this as an occasional thing but we get nailed pretty well (though it could be worse, could live in Rochester, NY). It's a simple process of taking it easy and letting the front wheel drive and the traction control thingie do its thing. Rear wheel drive cars are at a real disadvantage and cars that are lightweight with big mills really take the hit. I used to joke that whatever color the Camaro was when you bought it, after two years in Chicago it was one of two colors: primer orange or primer grey.
