Anyone for skiing?

In Britain they have a saying "Anyone for Tennis?" which is packed with British humour and actually means "Anyone for going outside and getting soaked in the rain?"

In Vancouver we should have a saying "Anyone for skiing?" which will mean "Anyone want to go for a jog on the snowless ski hills?"

So we just had the Winter Olympics, and one of the mountains that was used to hold many of the events had no snow. Well, it did have snow, but the snow was trucked in from other mountains, it didn't spontaneously fall from the sky onto the hills that the skiing was on. Seriously. But now, today, weeks later, at the end of March, there's tons of snow up on Cypress Mountain.

And a collective groan goes up from Vancouver.
