Most important day of the year
Today is December 21, the Winter Solstice. As a lifelong car guy, I always treat today as the most important day of the year, because after today the days start getting longer. So there is small ray of hope as our temps head for zero and the snow is coming here in Chicago. The Corvette is up on the lift for its winter nap until about April 1, but I am now optimistic. Merry Christmas to all! --Bob

Re: Most important day of the year
I agree completely, although I am somewhat puzzled why scientists and meteorologists would name such an important moment after a Pontiac.
Merry Christmas! It's almost Spring! Marty |
