		<description>Griff,

twas not prayer nor any kind of clipper, alberta or otherwise, that bought the snow.  twas the Rare Pair.

Last year their ads and window displays were green and white trees.  The tag line said "tis the season."  we had a green Dec.  

This year their ads and windows are blue and white snowflakes.  The tag line reads "let it snow."  Need I say more.

As one who enjoys the white powdery fluff, I thank them for a white Dec.</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt; You're right, Lisa... that last line was definitely sarcastic and deliberately so. This paragraph on our &lt;a href="http://locallygrownnorthfield.org/about/%20" rel="nofollow"&gt;About page&lt;/a&gt; explains the difference between a blog post and a conversation:
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;We refrain from sarcasm and satire where there’s a conversation going on, whether that’s on the audio show or in the comment thread of a blog post. It’s insulting to be sarcastic when conversing with someone. But we may occasionally use sarcasm and satire in our blog entries, as a blog can be a pure publishing medium. If a conversation (comment thread) is triggered by one of those posts however, we’ll be sure to switch off the sarcasm and will expect our site visitors to do the same.
  &lt;/p&gt;
