Interesting. Does that mean the stations are all full serve? Anything else about that place remind you of Jersey?

[m2711c]

certainly not the full snow removal crew… haven’t seen an operation like this since the ‘70s driving up rt 26 through constable on the way to snow ridge…

I now realize that my snowblower is woefully inadequate. Time for a fucking upgrade…

When the singularity happens that thing will be hunting you down and grinding you up.

It's also probably 50 years old and as reliable as Fred's boner pills.

In Fort Lee they regularly drive on the left side of the road. One has to be very alert there.

I have a story with the Venn diagram intersection of NJ, Japan and NZ that seems appropriate here.

I was in Japan once and there seemed to be a shitload of Aussies* and Kiwi's* skiing there--almost as many as Whistler. Then I was in NZ and there was likewise a whole bunch of Japanese skiing there. So I'm riding up the lift in NZ with a Japanese dude who was speaking perfect english to his friend who spoke less than perfect english. I ask the dude where he learned to speak english so well. He said NJ. He was American. Lived 2 towns from me.

* I can't tell the difference between Aussies and Kiwi's very well so it could have just been a shitload of Aussies in Japan.

This thread has gone off the diving board into full Upstate homerism. I dig it.
Carry on.

That’s hilarious. Even funnier if he would have added, “motherfucker” after saying he’s American.

That, or just "bitch."

What threw me off is the Japs wear weird gear brands that we don't see over here. IIRC he was wearing a Colmar jacket with sponsor logos, which I think was big in Japan at the time.

[BmillsSkier]

I believe m27 is over there loading up on Moncler gear as we speak.

[Timberridge]

and ID Ones?

I was a Hart guy for a minute back in the day when Salomon stopped making bump skis and have always been interested to try those ID Ones cause they're friggin everywhere. I was very pleased to see that Faction makes a bump ski. I'll have to check the suggested mounting point though.

^ so I grabbed some creamers for old times sake

two observations for the database:

1. this rebrand is horrid. it's like they found the proposal from a 1993 filing cabinet. the throwback can was perfect; but they gotta mess with it...

2. beer is different than I remember it; and not in a complementary way. something off like I can taste the can - this ain't no keystone "bottled beer taste in a can." see #1 above, re: messing with it

I’m not sure any cream ale can be canned.

You all had genessee. We had little kings. 7oz bottles.

[BmillsSkier]

At least there’s 29 more of em for you to figure out how you feel about it.

(Did Genny Screamers only come in 30 packs btw?)
