Winter Ahhh Just Go Away Already

im gettin the jitters i need to take my 97 for a cruise i just hate all the salt and dirt on the road, do they clean up this stuff when the winter is pretty much over. im goin back down south where i can drive her more this state is depressing the only good thing to do up here during the fronzen tundra months is to modify your ride.

Those 50 degree days were just a tease, now a foot of snow is coming. At this rate the car will be coming out of storage sometime in August At least I can look at the small pile of parts in the corner and dream. Off to shovel!!!

Some places they clean it up, other places it just ends up on the side of the road, and every year somebody ends up plowing into it, spinning their car around, and gettin placed into a box. So, be careful out there!

I know how you feel. My car has been sitting inside since October in my brother's garage. Piloting the Uberwagen just isn't the same, though it's nice that the cops pay absolutely zero attention to this car.

YOU MEAN POLICE OFFICERS LOL

i always try to refer to them as police officers,,,,,,,,exspecially when they are behind me going through the central mass towns where the police have nothing better to do but tail you all the way to the town line waiting to hear your car back fire so they can pull you over and write you up for every possible offense which your car is currently breaking.......oh never mind the many of you out there that dont wear a seatbelt slap another 250 on to this infraction.....i must say you guys have some tight laws up here regarding rules and regs ...but hey breaking a few rules and infraction never hurt ne1.......its all good im ready for the summer fun........

Yeah...I don't enjoy living here, etiher, and am actively plowing hoards of cash into getting out of this area. And it's not because of the police, their presence being a function more of the overpopulation of this state than anything. It's because of said population - from the 2000 census:
Persons per sq. mi. Massachusetts - 809.8
USA - 79.6 -- and because living around here is really boring and dark. When I come back from long trips, I always wonder "Where did the rest of the sky go?".
