You guys are wimps. Try living on the eastern shore of Lake Michigan.

Tom has brain-freeze. Living in Michigan and drinking slurpees too fast will do that to you.

... no one LIVES on the eastern shore of Lake Michigan ... they just EXIST ... and just barely at that ...

Ho Ho Ho! You guys don't know you're born. Temperature up here in Edmonton, Alberta earlier this week: Minus 58C inc. windchill. Minus 42C without windchill. Now back to your suntan lotions.

That's pretty bad, lol...

What happened to your Oilers last night against the Caps? I was listening to the game on the way home from my gig and the bottom fell out in the 3rd...

The coldest weather I ever saw was in Edmonton. Minus 29F. And that was in November. The cold seeped into the house, the wind blew hard. And my honey turned as cold as that wind. For no reason, far as I could tell. I tucked my tail and went home to the sunny south.

Yep, another night at the office for the oil. What happened was that Ove and crew were just too much for our disorganised defence. Probably just as well we play them only once in three years.

About the only thing we can console ourselves with up here is the the sun shines a lot. I'd like to tuck tail and head south, too, to where the sun actually has some warmth attached to it. Where's this bloody global warming we all hear about - we NEED it up here.

Coldest I've seen was -15F in Ft. Knox KY ... funny part is that when I finished basic training at Ft. Dix NJ and they told me I was going to Ft. Knox for armor training, I said "well, at least I'm going south for the Winter" ... South, yeah - to snowstorms that made drifts as high as the second floor of the barracks; to frozen mud that had to be knocked off the tank treads every morning; and to sub-zero temps ...

PS BTW ... I think we've done a nice job of hi-jacking Gary's thread ....

LOL! Just call it verbal evolution, Tony. The weather and the taxman affects us all. I'm not sure which one is harder to take.
