Skiing combines outdoor fun with knocking down trees with your face.

Skiers view snowboarders as a menace; snowboarders view skiers as Elmer Fudd.

Downhill skiing is more like an adrenaline rush, it's more about having fun. This is more about a workout. I wouldn't do this just for fun. It's more gratifying and rewarding than fun. I feel tired. I feel like I did a lot of work. It's not fun, but it's good to do. Fun is jumping off cliffs, skiing powder. This is more about being fit and being outdoors.

Snowboarding is an activity that is very popular with people who do not feel that regular skiing is lethal enough.

The problem with winter sports is that -- follow me closely here -- they generally take place in winter.

Auto racing is boring except when a car is going at least 172 miles per hour upside down.
