    Everyone was so excited. Everybody here freaks out when they see natural snow or ice. It wasn't even enough to fully cover the ground. So, I brought snowballs into the office and pelted some of my coworkers. :devil:

    I was actually in New Orleans a few years back when they got snow. My grandparents said that was the first time they had seen it in New Orleans in 15+ years. Of course, their other home is in the mountains of North Carolina.
