<DIV>Just when we thought we had dug out from the last 2 storms, I get a
bulletin from our local emergency management about a possible 8+ inches on
Monday night for the mid Atlantic states! I just got my cars out this morning
and have a wet butt from falling in the snow trying to get to my mailbox to
retrieve last weeks mail. And the Winter Olympics are having to truck snow in to
Whistler. So we have an idea. If stomping stops rain, maybe having
thousands of bassets frantically wagging tails will push these storms to where
they belong on the West Coast. Its worth a try! C'mon get those treats out and
get 'em wagging.</DIV>
