Exaggeration? You ever been here? We have snow from Sept thru June some years...Seen a foot of snow on the last day of summer and 6 inches here on June 8, both here not on some stinkin mountain. Have actually seen it snow on the 4th of July. You stunt doubling for JeffO or what?
Come on up California man............ Well I know you get a lot of snow, I just had no idea you only had two seasons up there. You need to come on out in Feb, we can put on sweaters and go for a hike.

You need to come on out in Feb, we can put on sweaters and go for a hike. Why would I need a sweater? And yes we have 2 seasons... road construction and winter. I was in San Diego one February to watch my oldest son graduate from MCRD. They had a "severe winter storm" there during our stay. I got the biggest kick out of the front desk staff over their obvious concerns. It was raining and a little windy......I teased them a bit about it. I told them a real winter storm is when the snow is blowing so hard you can't see the end of your car hood.

Good socks and uninsulated boots beat the hell out of insulated booted boots. You can adjust for the temperature. I have used both. Yeah, maybe if you are driving around in an F250 all day...

If it get real cold and I am standing behind a survey instrument then I break out the pac boots. BTW how did the work thing turnout? Well I hope!

Not sure on the work, got reemed, now I have been flying under the radar. I've got some things on the horizon, working for government -and- with a woman boss is a disaster!

I hear ya, a friend of mine had a vertically challenged female supervisor with a chip on her shoulder and is a micro manager. I told him to transfer and he finally did to another office...life is much better for him now. Hope it works out for you, nothing good about an unhappy work environment As to cold feet, if mine do get cold I am miserable. I have to use sock liners in cold weather to move the moisture away, especially if I am walking.

Just checked. The "goodfriend" code is NOT working this morning. Looks like they didn't extend it.

why do I have a feeling this isn't a glitch, with the site going down? They probably hit their objective, then threw a wrench in the machine to prevent more sales at those prices.

I could maybe understand not extending it "due to technical difficulties" but they should have prepared for the onslaught of online activity. It's called contingency planning for god sake!

Again, it was a "friends and family" sale and was probably not intended to be made public. Are you a friend or family of an employee?..

When I placed my order I noticed a ton of rediects and reverse proxys. It's my guess that due to PCI compliancy requirements that Danner outsources this part of their business. You'd be surprised at the number of companies I work with everyday that run these types of promotions but are not willing to step up their network for the traffic spikes and load balancing.
Trust me their commerce service provider for this promotion is down. It's not a hoax or quota attainment thing. Having said that it's just plain downright stoopid that they did contract with someone like Akamai for the load.
BTW their site is back online.
Proud to be a true Sandlapper!!

...Actually Sycamore, you are sort of right....
