More about winter

From The Gazette: The total snowfall in Montreal this season, measured from Sept. 1, is 296 centimetres. The record set in 1970-71 is 383 centimetres.

And we're getting another 20 cm today.

1970-71 was the Cal Ripken of winters.

We cannot possibly match that record. Can we? Please God no.

...well if 70-71 was the Ripkin of winters...at the very least, 07-08 has to be the Jim Nabors of winters.

Not quite sure what that means or how it applies...but, I bet he would have said "Golly!" every time more snow fell.
