Glad you like it, that's why I make these puzzles. :)

I'm kinda having difficulty coming up with subjects, which is why this is only my third puzzle. I was surprised to see how well this one turned out.

It came out very well. Nice job!

Have seen a lot of these the last few days here in Michigan- thanks for a pretty puzzle!

Beautiful!

So pretty, nice one to wake up to, thanks

Mesmerizing Timo.
Fun little puzzle. Thank you! ^>^

It's really pretty if you look at it long enough.

Yes, I noticed that after I already created this puzzle. I'm not sure I would want to try doing that though...

As someone living in Minnesota who just made it through a day in the 20s F and snow yesterday I only have one thing to say:

*YUCK*

Actually I don't mind snow too much. But the cold really bites.

ADAM - watch it.

What??? Complaining about 20s??? We had 5 a couple days ago.

I have a coworker originally from India, and she was expressing disbelief about how cold our winters here in Kansas City got. I asked her how cold it got where she was from, and she said it got to the 20s.

So I'm thinking, well, gosh, she should be used to this, what's the big deal? And then my husband suggested that perhaps she was talking 20 C, not 20 F.

Oh yeah. Bit of a difference, then.

Martin, what is your intention (referring to "ADAM - watch it" in #20)???

In about a month I expect temperatures around -30 and that is where F and C meet.

Wow, I can't even imagine what -30 must be like.

I'm not sure I've even ever experienced -20 (not counting wind chill).

Whenever we start going below zero here, I find myself thinking about this science fiction short story: http://www.webscription.net/chapters/0743498747/0743498747___6.htm

You might find it interesting.

Honestly, once you get to zero or below, you really can't feel much difference. It is just COLD!!!!

wrong I'm in Quebec my friend and there an enormous diffrent between little chilly -5 C and mid january frozen storm with winds and -30C

Shovelling at 4 am by -30C to go to work is a lot diffrent than pushing little snow of your windshield by a sunny winter -10C

I am glad you can feel the difference. I have been in both as well, and I stop caring to notice any difference below zero. Like I said, everything on your face freezes no matter what!

To Adam - I figured you for a snappy comment about cold biting ...
<smile>

We've already had several days in single digits. On the other hand, we had a high of 40F today and I actually saw a kid out in just a t-shirt. Pretty good for Thanksgiving day. We typically have a snow storm somewhere between the Monday before and the Sunday after but the forecasters don't think that's going to happen this year.

Why single me out? I never said or did anything to you, so why start with me?

He's teasing you Adam...

Sylvain... I think you are forgetting that Adam is thinking in F degrees. 0 for him is -17 for us. Even though I would say that there is still a big difference. At -25C I need to cover my mouth to be able to breath.

That's fine, Deana, but I still asked the question of why ME out of so many others?

lol...'cause your too easy :)

What Nancy said. ;)

You guys might know that, because you have known me for a while. HE wouldn't.

That's easy enough to solve, though. I can ignore people the way they ignore me. I guess I will just continue to say what I feel, just like anyone else on here.

Uhm... Adam...? Good luck with that. You're too easy to goad. You can TRY to ignore people, but when it comes right down to it, you love it! ;)

I guess I didn't say that quite right. I meant, I will ignore people when they tell me to shut up or to change my comments. The only thing I love is speaking my mind.

So I may say something that doesn't fit the flow of the conversation, and by doing so, I am in a way "ignoring" people. Make sense?

ok, yeah, maybe.... but you won't mind if I don't believe it til I see it, right? :)

Why would I mind? No one else does.

lol

Actually, "HE" would. I can't remember where but there was some other puzzle where I made a comment that was either a double entendre' or which could be misinterpreted and, I won't use the word "pounced", you availed yourself of the opportunity. I obviously have a sense of humor because I was able to interpret that comment in the light in which it was intended.

Apparently my sense of humor is not as clear to you and your memory may be shorter than mine or you comment in so many places that its difficult to remember when you've made a humorous comment. Therefore I hereby promise never to single you out again.

It would seem to me that you do mind. Otherwise, why bring it up?

All I ever do on this site is joke around. Sometimes people take it too far, though. That's all.

I only brought up the "you" issue because you singled me out. That in and of itself isn't a huge problem, but I just felt that it was unmerited since you are fairly new here, and really don't know me well enough yet. No harm done.

How interesting. Hmmmm. I understand exactly why Byrdie made that remark, and I thought it was funny, based on what I have read previously.

How well we know each other depends on how much of ourselves we reveal. I've been reading through the forum messages and I have to say I feel like I am getting to know a lot of you, especially those who are so prolific.

Reminds me of when I go to some other city and speak at a conference, and parents who have spent hours at my website will come up to me and give me a big hug and act like we are long lost buddies. I may not know this person from Adam (the proverbial one, of course), but they feel like they know me well, because I have shared so much of my personal experience on my website.

It's hard to tell ssometimes how people will respond to teasing, especially in text format without the nonverbal cues. I'll tell you now, if anyone teases me, I can take it. After all, I grew up with 6 brothers. Yeah, I know what it is like to be teased.

I am so happy for you!

And all this because someone made a snowflake. :)

There are a lot of flakes on this site... (self included ;)

Cute.

Ditto #5 & #12
Re #24 It's actually -40C = -40F.

(C/5*9)+32=F
(F-32)/9*5=C
Easy, right?

After I finished this puzzle I looked outside through my sliding glass door that is blocked by two feet of snow and still accumulating. Yay South Dakota.

Nice little puzzle back from the beginning days :)
