The photo above was taken this evening outside my home. With another Nor’Easter on fast approach for this weekend - promising a healthy mixture of snow, sleet and rain set to join forces with the 11″ of packed powder that’s already fallen on the Humphries house, it’s looking more and more like we’re in for that long lost White Christmas.
Today’s dire storm warnings sent me scurrying from work early – allowing me extra time to post 2 Rounds of the Ho Ho Ho Throwdown in one day. For those following the event, Round 4 saw Jason move into a tie with Aunt Sharon – with both contestants sporting 32 points a piece (out of a possible 40).
With this throwdown all knotted up, break out the HGH as this competition is about to grow fierce. Oh yes, there will be blood.
On with the show.

ROUND 5 IS UP!!!
What a cute picture! I hope they had little mini-shovels in there…never too young!! Posting my answers now…I see the Simpsons in there, I am so screwed. I knew I never should have let Poe watch that show!!
@Aunt Sharon – Not shovels but close. Colin was helping with his toy leave blower (hey – it sounds likes it’s helping) and Aria was clearing the porch with a plastic 9-Iron.
Me, I was perched behind the most ass-kickingest, ball-bustingest Snow Blower/Armored Tank money could purchase. I had the full driveway cleared in 30 minutes and managed to defoliate the surrounding area for good measure.
ROUND 5 RESULTS ARE UP!!!
In my defense…I only watch Hugh Grant movies for obvious reasons, I care not for content!!
