We send down all the snow and wind we get from Siberian Russia to you guys
after we have used it for a while. Though you would appreciate a change.
And don't forget about your gardens that need a good winter's snow cover!
See? We're just being nice, eh?

Something we generally try to avoid as landlords of New York and especially
Manhatten. If you don't straighten out on the softwood, wheat and West
Coast salmon business, we're gonna cut off your supply of Canadian back
bacon. AND the moose lips and beaver bums that go into the making of your
hot dogs.

Got a 2-4 of Mooshead Dry with your name on it next time you make a
snowmobile run across the border with an insulpak of Arisaema tubers.
