Negative 1 deg Ferenhiet
« on: November 16, 2009, 12:53:17 AM »
And it isn't even Thanksgiving yet.  Mondays low is looking like -8F.  I've got a feeling it going to be an extremely cold bastard of a winter this year.  With any luck we will see -40F by new years day.  WOO HOO!  How do I request an emoticon that shivers with snot sickles hanging from it's face?
I farted and made my son cry.

I have only ever seen snow once, and that was in the distance in New Zealand....
I think i'll decline your offer Bill as it would take more than a week to acclimatize, it would just  freeze my balls off..... :o

Mick,

I just shoveled some snow for you. If you were here I'd let you do it in person.

I fondly remember my first winter in Riverton,Wyoming (1992).We had a week or 2 of -40 degree F temps.It would warm up to like -10 in the warmest part of the day!!! Had to get block heaters for the vehicles ASAP. My ex used to have to be to work at 6am and before I got a block heater on her Camry....the rockers would clatter for close to a full minute. That was some cold sh!t that I hope to never live in again!!!!
