Now, I realize that it does snow an awful lot in Buffalo but really, it is OK to take off the snow tires during the summer. Unless, of course, you need the extra practice? :) It has been rumored that the snow tires last longer that way too. On the other hand, there is nothing like being prepared.Larryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02741668887301176061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5011528072573771541.post-83560368239428875472009-12-02T08:14:32.984-05:002009-12-02T08:14:32.984-05:00Prof. G, you are so nice to me!

That book is overheated and yes, although I think the writer has a good command of language maybe I did speak too fast in saying he is a good writer. <br /><br />Larry, the snow tires never did come off my car!

Maybe... nah.<br /><br />Anyway, how can you live in Buffalo and still get excited about the snow. You guys get more snow in one minute than we get here in Norfolk all winter! The feeling you describe happens to me whenever I see a flake. Two flakes = a blizzard!Larryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02741668887301176061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5011528072573771541.post-49995055943197681672009-12-01T10:16:37.387-05:002009-12-01T10:16:37.387-05:00A good writer?

Harold Ross, the founder of the New Yorker, might well have called the posted prose example "writer conscious" and scribbled "just showing off here" on a proof. Sounds overheated to me and tells more about primal mating instincts than the genius of Chanel and Stravinsky.<br /><br /> I've known people who write who have condemned the New Yorker for suffocating creativity with picky editing. You've never written about your ideas of good writing on this weblog as far as I know. Want to tell us what they are?Prof. G.noreply@blogger.com
