My neighbors kids built this snowman. It was their first snowman attempt, as we never get enough snow to make one! Feb. 2010

Thanks Robyn! I am just thankful I don’t live a couple hundred miles north of here. They have had 60+ inches of snow in the last couple weeks. Crazy!

Just one question-
Why is the snowman(why don’t anybody build a snowomen?), a Sox Fan?
Don’t you folks in Va. Beach, have a AAA team to root for?
Peace.

That’s not right is it Don? Who can we write and complain? I’m thinking like a class action lawsuit or something. I mean, enough is enough! I’ve had it….I just can’t talk about it any more.

But, I think if you ever do get snow, we better look out, cause something’s seriously wrong!!! There’s always the movies….

There’s nothing to be sad about it actually. I know one day I’ll be in the US or another country where I can experience SNOW! Hahaha!

That’ exactly what I was thinking, as I watched from across the street! Yes, those are tangerines! We usually don’t get enough snow to make a snowman, but even if we do, it usually won’t pack well enough for snow man building. This was a rare opportunity indeed!

I’d say they did a fine job for their first attempt! I love the orange eyes.
Happy WW!

My 7-years-old sister also likes to make snowmen, but when she comes next morning to see it again she finds it totally ruined, like somebody cannot create snowman on his own so he ruins other snowmen. It is pretty sad but me and my sister hope he(or she?) will be a good boy(girl?) someday

Great snowman, I’m sure everyone had a ball making it. What’s with that hat though? You can all come up and visit me if you need to try out a larger snowman, or even numerous snow people. I have plenty of snow for you…bring shovels.

My kids tried to build one, but the snow was too powdery – now they’ll probably have to wait 8 years for the next snow.

That’s a really good snowman, first try or not. We haven’t been able to make a proper snowman this year because the snow is too dry. March is usually the best time to make snowmen.

Where the hell did my .blogspot| go? did I grow up suddenly and have a baby? I dunno, but if I keep having to look at some O’donnell like “snowperson” I just may have to leave this medium, and watch the lifetime channel, from here on out. I gotta send you, A RAIDER, man with RAIDER hat.
To make you aware your living in the land of the free, and the home of the brave…I thinks you live over in the Phillipines, with a Soxman in the Pic for chrissakes!
At least photoshop me a pic, of a real RAIDERNATION, snowmanbeing, till the mean time, ok?

Ohmy, for criminey sakes! If I had a .10cents for everyone of your comments, I wouldn’t be homeless anymore.
In fact, that gives me an idea…If every blogger(air-re-anna Huffington), included, would GIVE, /.10cents of every comment. To a charity, which I would be benevolently gracious, to hold the position, of God, in…we could stave off world hunger, homelessness, trip-to-the-doctorlessness, pure sitonmyassness fatigue, the whole works.
I mean, the last time Huffington, in a post I saw, which I was not censored in, like had 379 comments..that’s like…I went to a government school…$37.90! Piece of cake, she would never miss it! only about 9 gals of gas in her Limousine…Priceless! Who’s in it with me???
