Typical ignorant wimp.

The 'sweet science' is not only for people with cojones but also
demands discipline, precision, strategy, planning, quick thinking,
perseverance, and a rich understanding of human psychology. Not

It has been rainy and windy for the past few weeks except occasional days, but tonight according to the weather forecasts, it will snow heavily in most parts of the country. Mind you, they have been wrong before... 🙂
