imagine it's a couple days after xmas and your entire city is snowed
in... all your neighbors were ramped up to go to holiday parties with
family & friends, but now they're stuck and they've got lots of food,
too...

add a metal garbage can, some kindling, a bar made from snow, kahlua
slushies, and temperatures cold enough to freeze beer in no time and
enjoy for six hours...

the photos of this event are mixed in with lots of other snow shots:

incidentally, i told my survey that i like snow and cold, and it
didn't pick buffalo...

but it did pick lots worse places...
