I have lived in Los Angeles my whole life. We don't have snow. I have never built a snowman, thrown a snowball, or made a snow angel. Visits to the East Coast in November have always yielded "unseasonably warm weather" - and no snow. It was only earlier this year that I ever saw real snow fall from the sky. So I know nothing of snowmen aside from what I see on TV: three huge snowballs on top of each other, with coal eyes, a carrot nose, and a top hat. But apparently people get rather creative with their snowmen, and the glory of the internet has shown me some delightfully scary snowmen. I am taking notes in case I ever, one day, find myself in a few feet of snow.
