Depends entirely on whether or not your neighbors think you're good-looking - and if you're doing their drive when you're done with your own . . . .

6:30...any earlier and your neighbors would kill you....that is, if you didn't blow their driveway and brush off their car.

Sexual Harrasment & you

Very good. I missed that one before. I had a co-worker named Greg, and he always threatened us ladies with sexual harrassmenet (jokingly). ...
'you're making this a hostile and uncomfortable workplace'.

BTW Yossarian, were you joking/being sarcastic about that picture of Eli and the woman finding him hot? That is a very bad photo of him. (I thought)

OK, which one of you was pissing off the other????? I assume it was BE because if it were Fan, BE would have posted a time stamped pic by now.

It wasn't me...and it wasn't him either as I didn't hear anything this morning.

Granted, the bottle of wine last night during the game may have helped my sleeping.

OK, maybe I'm crazy but I really do NOT find Tom Brady good looking. He's so....standard and milktoast. Sort of too much what you'd expect. Anyone agree?

I prefer Manning's. They've got more character. Of course, I like Nicholas Cage and John Cusak...which I think means I like guys who aren't the stereotypical good looking. I'm sure my husband would be happy to know that.

I'll snowblow as early as 6am but no earlier. My neighbors all work though and they'd be out the door early too.

Amy - He is a bit of a (let me shake the dust off of this word) goober. There is something a little dorky about his smile, but he is still pretty handsome. Eli may age well, though. We'll see!

Eli "appears" to be intoxicated in that photo, hence he's not looking too good. I'll defer to the ladies of this BB on his appeal.

Tom Brady...just average face...nice body...sort of dorky, but thinks he's hot...not fun to date.

Peyton Manning...average face...terrible body...dorky, but knows it...fun to date.

Eli Manning...cute face...o.k. body...dorky and awkward, knows it...fun to date, too.

That's just one girl's opinion.

I agree, I didn't care for either of the two though. Not doing it for me. The background of Tom makes the package less appealing also. I can see by Yossarian's reply that the picture of Eli was a joke. But none the less- I do not find him, Eli, 'hot'.

Ladies - but who has a good sense of humor, is intelligent, thoughtful and kind to young children and animals ? We don't objectify men - do we???

Neither. I just wanted to know. I leave for work between 5 and 6, and I am already GE Fans alarm clock with my loud TT, so I would never crank the Toro up at that hour (or after 9 PM for that matter), but I saw 3 people blowing this morning when I left at 5:20 AM. Didn't know if that was exceptable.

I also don't want 2 years of these types of posts:

"As you know, my neighbor has been snow blowing his drive at 5:15 AM every morning, but today as I was driving down my street, I noticed a for sale sign on thier house. I am the happiest person on earth!"

5:20 am - Not acceptable - but there was apparently safety in numbers in your neighborhood. Did you know snow shoveling burns 360 calories/hour. It's an early morning workout -- and almost meditative with a shovel.

I saw a snow blower in action at Fan's a little after 7 am. That is acceptable.

Yes you did. It was the sprint/half-blow. I had to get the walkway and top part of the driveway done so the kids and wife could safely get to the car. [The next house WILL NOT have a detached garage].

Then I had to race to 3150 W. Flournox for a 9 am assault/battery status for a friend of mine from college. Fun morning....

I agree

oh

I am still ticked off at the neighbor who blew at 4:40am
grrrrrr

So, if a guy has to leave for work by 5:30 and he needs the snow out of his way, what should he do? My husband is sometimes out there at 5:00 a.m. with the snowblower. He's the first to help a neighbor and does the main sidewalk for neighbors on both sides when he has time. We haven't heard any complaints, but I suppose we wouldn't.

When he tries to sleep in on the weekends, lots of neighbors are up early mowing the lawn. He gets it. You take care of it when you can. The neighbors are still friendly and a rock has never come through the front window, so I guess it's o.k. with them!

I like the snowblower/shoveling combo. When it's only a few inches of snow, I'm actually happy to shovel. But the big snow was a bit much. I did shovel the sidewalk in back of our house and from our house to our drive but used the snowblower on the rest. Can't figure out why I never lose weight from all that shoveling...ugh.

And, as for objectifying men, honestly, my opinion of looks is heavily influenced by personality...probably why I'm not a Tom Brady fan.
