    Where are the truant officers??

    Karen (literally) letter to the editor in last Sunday's Morning Call...

    i hope this is just some good trolling.

    A letter printed on Jan. 3 was entitled “COVID-19 bill will send millions overseas.” The letter writer confused the COVID-19 bill with the government funding plan, which includes foreign aid spending. There was no money for overseas spending included in the COVID-19 bill.

    The Morning Call should never have printed this letter, as it perpetuates misinformation.

    I would suggest that state Rep. Mike Schlossberg go a few steps further in his proposed amendment to the fireworks law.

    Don’t just confiscate the rest; give a hefty fine — say $500 to start — and a place on an electronic “do not sell’ list to vendors. They of course can get someone else to buy them, but the prospect of continued fines and confiscations might help.

    Certainly concern for the well being of other living creatures isn’t enough incentive to act like a decent citizen.

    I thought you can only get better pricing if you buy at least a week in advance. 

    i was thinking more along the lines of putting 700 tix in a cart in one window and then seeing what happened to the price in another once it was low qty available. i have the price data too but i'm only interested in qtys

    What kind of bizarre shit?

    like there will be a lot of tickets, then 2 four hours later, then a little less than the original amt four hours after that. i could increase the frequency but i don't care that much.

    i was originally thinking people were gaming it somehow to get lower ticket prices, but i played around and didn't really notice anything.

    I saw they sold out of morning tickets this AM

    if you're interested in the historical data for availability, i have snapshots of every 4 hours for the last 10 days. doesn't look like anything funny going on (ie. pumping more tix based on forecast) but there is some bizarre shit on occasion.

  5. do you like cookies?

    do you like super firm, uneven grooming?

    what about waiting in line for 10 min by your third run?

    if so, today was your day to touch the sky at blue mtn.

    everything sucked. packed by 9:30. saw mutes squirrel digging holes under the sixer where lazy mile merges with sidewinder. was on first chair but got beat to challenge because it stopped near the unloading zone. didn't see anyone else there.

    challenge was super firm, cookied up, and uneven.
    razors was the worst i've seen in recent memory. every inch was cookies.
    sidewinder not too bad, firm.
    lower main st was pretty bumpy.
    switch was rotd, not too bad, a little softer than the rest.
    i did that long run midway to burma, ok. midway was cookied up.

    if you couldn't make it today for whatever reason, you didn't miss out on much. i'm hoping tomorrow makes up for it.

    Thursday will be better if you like skiing in snow. Friday will be better if you want some nice groomed out snow. Still a bit too early to determine definite timing and totals, but I plan on being there Thursday.

    edit: nevermind i can't read properly
