Small world indeed!!!! I'm actually in Elkridge (no one nationally knows where Elkridge is so I just say Columbia) right off Route 1.

Where's your tattoo shop? I'm actually thinking about getting a sleeve done - would love to throw my business to a fellow Rolex fan!!!

Thanks dude!! Unfortunately I don't :(

This is the worst snow I've seen living in this area for 4 years. The last 3 winters it snowed maybe an inch or 2 the ENTIRE season.

I used to live in Fairfax, VA and I haven't seen as much snow in years of living there. Rumor has it that Vancouver is planning to import snow from the US for the olympics

Good lord, I'm very glad it isn't like that anymore in Calgary. It wreaks havoc on the city, and we are USED to it!

P.s. Your car is gooorgeous <3 Benz' are my favourite cars ever.

You know, looking at all that snow... it is a beautiful scene and I think it would be kind of fun to be snowed in like, all huddled up and watching the winter unfold...

... For like, maybe an hour......

Yeah it's cute at 1st but gets old really quick.

So this week they are calling for "arctic" like temperatures and another 12-14 inches of snow on Tues/Wed.

Of course our weather doesn't compare to your guys, and you do have my sympothy, but if it's any consolation, El-Nino is reeking havoc over here on the West Coast. We had rain for the past several days, the HIGH today is in the mid 50s. I know all of you in the midwest would say that's fantastic for February and I am not complaining, but for US, that's COLD. And the forcast is for a miserable week, more storms, winds and rain.

I used to work near there....played a lot of golf at Timbers at Troy.

I'm in Annapolis. We can get the Subaru out, but my BMW probably wouldn't make it.

Bah! The only way you could trade up to a sexier car is if you go to the SLR McLaren!
