They use similar drilling machines like when they dig tunnels, as far as I know. Never seen crazy snow tunnels like that myself but I know some people from southern Norway who get crazy amounts of snow each year. When the winter is over and the roads are open to traffic again it must be crazy awesome to drive through that.

That is in Japan, now that would take some plowing.

Holy Moly, that gotta be at least 30 feet of snow. Then again, I've heard that amounts of snow like those aren't uncommon in Northern Japan.

I haven't shoveled my driveway yet this winter. Instead I just went and bought a new SUV. My driveway is pretty gnarly looking. Ok, so I had to shovel a little of the end out because the darn city plows tried to block me in.

it was only a matter of time

Rudy Fernandez was punched in the face by a Lithuanian fan following Real Madrid's 105-104 win over Zalgiris Kaunas in Euroleague play on Thursday.

Fernandez was bloodied by the punch and went straight to the airport. Real Madrid had a security guard with the team but he reportedly did not react fast enough to prevent the assault.

you're not supposed to punch a man wearing glasses though

Certainly no surprise. If Rudy Fernandez was in my presence, I think that I would deck him by reflex.

I'll forward you my account details. Thank you very much.

In other news, there's a blizzard outside. The 2nd one in three days. After some flooding rain about three weeks ago the winter is back with full force. It makes me wonder for how long it'll be winter here. It wouldn't surprise me to come back from holiday in mid-April to still see some snow. A co-worker told me that when she arrived in June last year she got caught by snowfall by surprise. She knew it was going to be bad but snow in June? That's crazy material

if you have carpeted floors and an indoor pet, a carpet cleaner is a must. animals have this uncanny ability to destroy carpet. in this case, all the snow melted where i live. i let my dog outside and she tracked some mud (i think it's mud).

What did the Vikings do wrong? Nothing wrong with the Harvin trade, couldnt and didnt want to keep him anyway and got a first round pick this year and a third round pick next year out of it.
