UMMMMM HELLO!?

It's like snowing here! I don't remember a time that it had snowed prior to Halloween other than the great blizzard of 1991. This my friends, is absolutely ABSANE! I'm so not ready for this.....

Dear Mother 'fricken' Nature,

So you thought you would play a funny joke on Minnesota eh? I suppose this is 'just the tip of the ice burg' huh? Snow in October? Isn't there any other place you can concentrate on? I hear Arizona is pretty hot... why don't you send them a 500 year rain storm or something.

I mean, here in Minnesota, we appreciate the power of Mother Nature. We are so lucky to have not one or two of your seasons but all four. Ya, how great is that? In return, we try our best to appease you. We pick up litter. We keep our lakes and rivers clean. We are total do gooders and just don't deserve this kind of cruel and unusual punishment. I can understand you thinking of taking that ongoing bribe from some of our die hard snowmobiling, ice fishing, skiing and hunting fools but they just couldn't have come up with that kind of loot! (pronounced with a hard Minnesota 'oooo' to emphasis the accent)

I promise I will do my part to keep the earth all clean and stuff if you just leave us alone. I mean at least until December? Pretty please? With two ecologically sound cherries on top?

Begging Your Holy Greatness,
Kid Jacque

Cross your fingers this works people because if it doesn't we need to grab some blankets, stock up on hot dish, hunker down and pray for spring. It's gonna be a long one this winter.......
