    The prize would be all the notoriety you'd get here , and everywhere else , when we tell everyone .

    You're no loser , at least , not yet !

    Get a picture of that snowperson(don't you just the political correctness in that ?) before Schmenke gets home from work or you will be !

    Already lost. The snow has melted. But on Saturday I saw a little girl doing one. I wanted to stop to take a picture but my hands were holding a pizza box.

    Gone is the notoriety....I'll die as an annonymus.......

    Hey , who knows whether Schmenke still has any snow either , as that picture was taken on Sept 8th .

    However , given that you have seemed to give up the title a little too easily here , it leads me to believe you would rather take losing than have to take the cold weather that comes with the notoriety .

    You don't sound like your heart is really in this competition .

    What are all the other competitors supposed to think ?
    I'm one of them , and I thought that perhaps I might have a pretty good chance this year .

    I learned from one of our elder snowperson makers in the village that the best flakes come from the middle of the forest , where they fall so slowly that you can be choosy about which ones you pick .
    Personally , I like a longer , less intensely branched flake , as I find they bind well together .

    It's not whether or not you like the weather or not , but rather whether you can weather the stormy weather with a smile .

    I love snow, but us here don't get much very often.

    I am in the snow person competition even though I have little chance of winning. Unless I visit my family in Canada just to build a snowman
    I still exist and still find the forum occasionally. Busy busy

    Haven't heard about this competition before. But the eternal loser I am, I'd probably come the second even if I'm the single competitor......
