And here I thought "frozen granular" was a simile.
Did I cause a mental short circuit? Like touching both antlers together? Do you think it was an accident?

How long until we get sick of "Greetings Beast Fans" . . I think I resent being called a Beast Fan . . . Sounds like "Devil Worshipper"

How about something that reflects our client base . . . . . Something like "Yo F@cktards"

you really care about this entirely too much. Frankly I wish I had nothing better to care about than three words in a ski report. So I guess you're winning. IDK...

If that’s the case maybe we should focus on our disdain for the general lack of useful/interesting information, rather than the folksy greeting. Give us actual operations updates. For Example here’s a report I’d like to read: HBF, Both of the trails were groomed last night. We are hoping to drop the rope on Upper East Falls by noon, so come later in the day if you want to ski it. Looking ahead we are going to try like hell to get upper great northern open so you don’t have to walk down. With luck, and the beasts billion dollar snow making system, maybe this will happen by Saturday if we don’t get shut down again because Mike forgot to pay the electric bill…

Let’s be honest here, nobody reads it (even the f***-tards from New Jersey) this time of year to know if they groomed rime and reason, we are looking for any kernel of hope that mid winter is coming.

Let's address the real elephant in this room . . . "Beast'

Get rid of that nickname. You stole it from Berkshire East. It has numerous NEGATIVE connotations. Lose it. Its juvenile and embarrassing.

Who cares? I've got better things in my life to worry about than the snow report. I have to save my time to shake my fist at the clouds and yell at people to stay off my lawn!

There is a certain imposing grandeur to the “Beast of the East” moniker and “The Beast” should be acceptable short hand for it. However, it fails (epically, I might add) because they never use “Beast of the East” anymore. Why? Too lazy to hunt n peck out the whole thing?
