  1. LOL at you guys. Announcement about what's going on is coming soon.
  2. I don't think you get what he is saying. It takes way more than a great park manager and crew. If it is going to be a great park it needs full support from the powers that be.
  3. Doesn't a sheriff's sale involve only the taxes owed? You pay the taxes owed and can gain the property....but you also assume any debts associated with the property?
  4. Ok KC - It's now or never. Will the big announcement come today? Will Sno pull out a miraculous deal to avoid the sheriff's sale? Side note - What happens when nobody bids on Sno at the sale? Nothing?
  5. Wow. If you think that about BB, then you are a complete idiot.
  6. Nobody wants that place. It's a disaster. I can't wait until it's closed and they auction off the assests. I bet I can get a slightly used SMI PoleCat to put in my backyard for super cheap!
  7. Let me try to put this in simple terms and concepts for you. Let's say there is $100,000 in a bank account. A business cuts checks to pay it's employees totalling $110,000. All the employees who cash their checks first, up to $100,000, will experience no issues. The poor saps who waited a little too long will be S.O.L. If you cash your check ASAP every time, then you will never notice a problem.......that doesn't mean that nobody else was left high and dry. As someone pointed out.....it doesn't matter where you cash your check. If you go to Wal-Mart with no ID, then they send you on your way. The check can't bounce because it was never processed. Side note: This is just another great reason to have direct deposit people! Just because the sale doesn't happen in July and somehow the owners of Sno manage to work out a short term deal for now that doesn't mean they will learn how to run a successful business or manage their finances. Long-term smoke = FIRE!
  8. I'd love to give you the benefit of the doubt KCSKI, but this has been an ongoing issue for a long time. Where there's smoke, there's fire. You don't really think that everyone will believe the online PR guy when he says everything is great do you? I thought you were rich. Why don't you buy it? Doug Mountain?
  9. Honestly, that's what I call a cool story bro. Such a riveting tale, I honestly copy and pasted it to word, saved on my hard drive, backed it up on a jump drive, drove to the bank, put the jump drive in the safe deposit box, and will leave it there until my kids turn about 12 (when they can actually state their age, and ask what it is I'm showing them), when I will pick it up, put it in an old USB drive reader and relay this cool story to them and tell them, "kids, this is what a cool story should look and sound like...not like the stories your generation tells.
  10. KCSKI - Do you do anything at the Sno during the summer? I'll be heading up there in August for the Peach Festival and was wondering if you'll be around then. I think the camping for the fest will be on the ski slopes, but I'm not 100% sure. The festival tickets includes unlimited access to the water park. I'm really looking forward to getting all buzzed up and hitting Sno Cove!
  11. Wow. Just wow. I'm with Shadows on this one. That's just plain douchey.
  12. Early morning was awesome. 9am to 11am it was puking snow. Very few people on the mountain besides me and some nerdy ski schoolers. I got fresh turns with every run. Floyd's was great. One Park was trail of the day.
  13. Also, don't take everything you see at face value R2. http://www.aboutseafood.com/press/media-blog/sensational-tilapia-story-begins-unravel "So, despite the warnings to the media it's happened again. A reporter eager for a sensational headline has botched a story about seafood science and in the process created an unnecessary scare. This time it's the Winston Salem Journal and its insistence that researchers have discovered the "possible dangers of tilapia." Suggesting that people should be warned against eating it because it might be "risky" and going as far as to quote a researcher who suggests eating bacon or ground beef might have more healthful properties. Wow-sounds like a story, right? Ground breaking stuff here- a once-believed inherently healthy food relegated to the recycling bin overnight? Not so fast, Woodward. Let's get Bernstein on the line and do a little research into this theory that foods with lower omega-3's and higher omega-6's are unhealthy and let's also do a little research into this researcher too, how ‘bout it? Well, well, well... it turns out there is no scientific consensus that lower-omega-3, higher-omega-6 fish are unhealthy. And the very journal that published the tilapia research, Journal of the American Dietetic Association, also devotes three pages to a research editorial by William Harris PhD that blasts the aforementioned research theory. And then there's this- the researcher who's busy publicizing these surprising findings about omega-6's and their effect on inflammation, well he just happens to be selling a book about that issue and a diet program and hosts a website devoted to it as well. Hmmmm. None of these facts were mentioned in the Winston Salem Journal article and with those egregious omissions in mind we have endeavored to bring these breaches in journalism standards to the paper's attention and remind them that when unintended consequences of sound bite science start effecting people's health the media is partly responsible. Additionally, we contacted the Associated Press whose name was attached to a story about this topic that was posted on MSNBC.com - the AP made it very clear that they had not written or endorsed this story and they contacted MSNBC.com and had the site remove the mis-branded story immediately."
  14. My tilapia addiction is the least of my worries. For some reason, I really want a cheeseburger now.
  15. Surprisingly yes. Got at least 2 inches last night at JF. They really caught a break on weather for once. There wasn't much rain at all. I let my dog outside last night at about 2 AM and was totally shocked to see my porch covered in snow. I live pretty far from JF so I get rain/sleet a lot of times when JF gets snow. Not sure what BB got, but I imagine they got mostly snow just like JF. Woohoo! Yesterday's lunch special was pulled pork BBQ sandwich with au gratin potatoes. Today's special is tilapia, snap peas, and rice. Amazing! That's reason enough for me to be here. YUM!
  16. Skiing was really good. Spring conditions. It was warm and sunny. Snow was your typical spring stuff...a mixture of slush and mash potatoes. Floyd's was great as always.....really fast. According to some ski app my buddy Jason had we were hitting 55mph. Not too bad for the wet snow conditions we were dealing with at the time.
  17. Methinks truer words have never been spoken. Or typed.
  18. Wow. Thread title is truly spectacular.
  19. Thanks for the trip reports R2. Don't let a darsh like GSS get to you. Just ignore him. I think it's great that you are so in to boarding. As long as you are having a good time riding, then it doesnt matter what Floyd's is like that day. GSS is just jealous that he doesn't have a reserved seat with an official sign for him at his home mountain. Haters gonna hate. JADIP
  20. The connector from Jane's to Lehigh a.k.a. The Robert2 Crossover. Seriously.
  21. No rain. All snow. It dumped for a pretty long time. Snow was on the heavy side at times; nonetheless, it was all snow.
