That's about 0 F right?
I wish the cold would break soon.
I still need to repossition my flywheel... and it's just not worth having 911 called to chizzel me out off the ground.
Funny thing is I'm going to a pool party tomorrow morning for my nephew's B-Day party. Thinking about wearing some longjohns under my bathing suit. 
The weather channel just said it's -6 here right now. With wind tonight we're to hit -32 ... again.
If this keeps up I'm sure my little puppy girl is going to learn the bad habit of lifting her leg... (or freeze to the ground). I feel bad for her... really... I do.

Hit -38C on Newyears day with no wind chill . Snow mobiles started
but it was no fun at all ! So we went back int the cabin and poured
a little something into a glass and put another log on the fire ,
(after pluging in the cars) . Put on a movie and watched all the
birds at the birdfeeder .
Happy newyear to all !
Oh by the way , -38c and -38f are allmost the same thing.
It sounds like eastern Canada is getting it now and they are not as
prepaired for it as we are in central- western Canada. |

I don't know about where all you guys are, but for us here in Maine it's been a weird 6 months... strange shifts in weather patterns. An a whole lot of wet.
The sky is falling the sky is falling.

True driving excitement 
Just picking.
My neighbors always looked at me like I was nuts for doing that.... but not as bad as in the summer when I would go out in the morning with a cup of coffee and just set there in a patio chair and look at her with a smile on my face... daydreaming. When you neighbor yells out, "what are you doing"? What can you really say that'll back up you sainity? All you can really do is turn to them with a crooked smile, and a squinted eye, and reply back in a tearid voice, "she likes me".
As stupid as it sounds... yet in complete honesty, I've spent alot of time just setting in, or just out in the parking lot with her feeling fortunate to have a car this beautiful. Everytime I set in it feels like a dream.
Anyway.. as far as the cold weather goes up here, Doesn't look like it's ghoing to break anytime soon. From what I've heard we're going to have only a 1 day break, (filled with snow), come Monday, then these temps are coming back.
Joe I believe my AOL messenger ID is mrgtturbo as well.
I'll be kicking it on, seeing you're cable aswell I'm sure you'll understand if I look like I'm on, but no where to be found.

A you can see I wasn't joking about the pool party a few posts ago.
I've heard this coming Thursday will have a high temp of -6... I can hardly wait to see what the low with wind-chill will be. Buurrrrrrrrrr
