The Snow Eating Fog
 

This morning we have 6 to 8 inches of snow on the ground. Unfortunately it is disolving into the fog. Rain is on the horizon so Kwanza ain't looking too white.

I thought this thread title said "The Snow Eating Frog."

Lil' Pete decided it was worth doing.

Violent rain storms earlier this morning ate most of our snow, so no white Kwanzaa in Detroit, either :(


(nice frog!)

I thought it said frog too, I was like....why isnt this an IotD

Check the snow for signs of little cat feet.

It never snows in Coastal Georgia, but Kwanza is everywhere. Nothing like made up holidays to brighten the season.

Aren't all holidays, "made up"?

Yea, but the only ones I care about are the ones that give me paid days off from work. :D

Snow report: The white stuff took a beating but we've still got some cover. Snow showers today... its gonna be okay.

Great frog!
And I didn't think it said Snow Eating Frog, but if I ever join another forum (but why would I? Everything I want is here?) then that will be my username.

Go with it for a user title

D'oh!

Cute. Merry Christmas Eve.

Happy Snow Eating Frog Day!

And don't forget your gloves for Boxing Day! :p Thwappetty thwap.

I think I'm going to start celebrating Snow-Eating-Frog-Day

Happy Sefd to all!

Actually, they are all made up holidays. Some just came along later than others.

From wikipedia
The word Christmas probably didn't come around until the 11th century, although the celebration of Christ's birth is possibly from 200 AD. The modern Christmas, with Santa Claus, probably dates closer to mid-1800's. The popularity and significance of Hanukkah, which actually dates back to the post-battle celebration about 200 B.C.E., came shortly after.

Whether you are using the term "Black" or "African American", you are referring to a group of immigrants who are distinct from all others since they were brought here as slaves. As such, in most cases they were not allowed to keep their cultures. This means that now they must either try to reacquire a culture or invent one. reacquiring a culture is difficult, since one would need to know a lot about their ancestors. Kwanzaa is an attempt to build a new culture.

Essentially it's another solstice holiday wrapped up with cultural or historical trappings. Everyone deserves one and everyone gets one. The only people who had a problem with this were a few Texaco executives.

Yea, I know. That is why the other thread is called Another made up holiday.

From the department of redundancy department.

P.S. I'll find my frog!

(his name is hopkin green frog)



....who took my frog?

Hopkin!

him name is hopkin.

i bought that t shirt a couple years ago.....and immediately got tar on it......and lost it in the bottom of a drawer.....

I just found it a couple weeks ago.

ps....i found my frog.

Not him frog. Him frog Hopkin Green.

6" over night him frog happy

Mrs Griff, you should really log in under your own name, instead of Griff's.

Cool! We got cold drizzle with patches of black ice. Him frog, Hopkin, not so happy here.

I heard then saw one accident on an overpass on my walk to the metro this morning. They really do freeze first.

we were supposed to get snow last night......i awoke to fog only......i think griff's snow eating frog has been here.

snowish

Xmas Hawk
 

I set up my tripod and took this last last week in the driveway.

I did GIMP it a bit around the bottoms of the tires, and got rid of the center stand.

Better put some chains or ice racing spikes on that baby, or you'll never get back up the driveway.

@Griff, what's Eggnog looking at, that's more interesting than you?

Dude, I don't even know the goats names. If you're so smart, she's looking at Merlin and Aife. :)

Sweeeeeeeeet ride HLJ.

Eggnog was in your Christmas card.

I remembered that after. :cool: I call her Ampersand because Eggnog just doesn't stick in my head.

Well, no wonder she was ignoring you.

Your first sobriety dividend! Congratulations!

Thanks Griff. It's hard to believe it's 18 years old (1990 Hawk GT). It still starts easily, even after sitting neglected for three months.

Yesterday, the Fog came and ate our Snow :( Today, the temperature is 63 !!!!! in Michigan. In January.

My six foot snow mountain is reduced to less than two.... :cry:

:frog: :frog: :frog:

I have seen this thread everyday since it was started. Every day since it was started I read "Snow eating Frog". I didn't realize that wasn't what it said until the discussion earlier in the thread. Maybe I need glasses.

:wstupid:

Me too, Lookout!

I'm guessing the 3rd post planted frog on the brain. Sublin????? advertising works
