Must be a job removing snow from the rails.

USD a little weaker, maybe if the SM turns south today we can get gold up to $1300.

More on winters in that part of Canada

Posted by Alex Valdor @ 7:00 on January 7, 2019  

A couple of years later , I purchased a home on the outskirts of town on the Trans-Canada Highway . The road crews would ‘gang-plow’ the highway in huge trucks with snowplow blades about five or six feet high . They would fly along the highway plowing at about 60 mph . The lead truck would clear from roadway centerline to the width of the blade . The second would overlap and clear the shoulder back about six feet without taking out the mailboxes . The third lifted the blade about three and a half feet to take the top of the snowbank down low enough that folks could see over it when pulling out from their driveway . I saw -45 degrees on my window thermometer more than once at that house . I once fell off the roof while shoveling the snow from it . It was about a 12 foot fall ( to ground level ) , but I landed in the snow I had cleared and that cushioned the fall . Later tunneled into it , and made an ‘igloo’ for the kids , that they loved playing in . It lasted well into springtime .

Maya- I will never forget the winter of 1970-71

, nor the next . Both broke records for snowfall . Where I lived , north-west of Ottawa , we had 142 inches of snow that winter . The following year was worse at 171 inches . I had friends in a townhouse in Ottawa with a postage stamp front yard , and there was just no place to put the snow from the driveway and sidewalk . It was illegal to throw it onto the roadway . Folks in that condo had towers of packed snow as high as fifteen feet tall covering their entire little front yard . I was in company housing with windows starting about five feet above ground level . At the peak , there was only about a foot of window at the top to let light in.

A cruise missile has a single jet engine in the rear

…after the forward explosives have blown the hole, the trailing jet engine enters the hole.  Just sayin’…

The General is right.  Wings… even if ‘sheared off’ will leave a mark.  And it will be soaked with jet fuel, ‘cuz the tanks are in the wings.  No long burn marks evident on the exterior.  No landing gear found, either.  Typically the landing gear survives a crash.
