"Observe the snow. It fornicates."

(From The Straight Dope column in which Cecil Adams discusses the numerous words in the Inuit language for snow and points out the difficulty in translating the exclamation, "Look at all this fucking snow!")

2 more inches and it's still coming down, heavier and with larger flakes. Filling up where I worked so hard on Wednesday to clear, dammit.

I love snow from an aesthetic standpoint, but why does it otherwise have to be such a PITA? :-)
