It was SO COLD!!!!!!!!
hitchhikers were holding up pictures of thumbs!
roosters were rushing into Kentucky Fried Chicken and begging to use the pressure cooker!
pickpockets were sticking their hands in strangers' pockets just to keep them warm!
the squirrels in the park were throwing themselves at an electric fence!
the dogs were wearing cats!
Starbucks was serving coffee on a stick!
the rats were bribing the alley cats for a snuggle
words froze in the air. If you wanted to hear what someone said, you had to grab a handful of sentences and take them in by the fire!
the politicians had their hands in their OWN pockets!
I actually enjoyed it when someone spilled scalding hot coffee on my lap!
the muggers were phoning in sick!
we had to kick a hole in the air just to get outside!

Are you kidding?
This is still T-shirt weather here in Minnesota, the temperature has to drop another 20-30° before we might put on a long sleeved shirt.
I drove back to Minneapolis from the north shore of Lake Superior in a snow storm on Saturday and there we two guys surfing just north of Duluth in Lake Superior (no lie).
Surf's up!!!!

You know how when it get's reaeeaaallll cold down here in the south, and we southerners go outside and do the old " See your breath " test. If you can see your breath, you now it must be winter. Well, this morning I tried a new experiment. After 2 real bad cups of coffee, peanut butter flavored grenola bar, leftover cheese dooodles, and one of those small packets of candy corn treats left over from halloween, I decided to put the " Air " test to use. Trust me, when hot air leaves your body and mixes with sub-freezing temps..... smoke will be produced. Not sure it's really smoke, I'll leave that to the smarter ones on this forum. I must admit , as strange as my life has been up to this point, that's the first time I can remember seeing smoke emitted from the rear. Please don't try this at home. Or, if you must.... don't let your neighbor see you. Life is great. Oh well, let's see what tomorrow brings.

Haha! I got a good giggle out of all that! Longhorn, I have never heard anyone call it smoke before, so that gave me an added chuckle...When I was a kid I used to pretend I was smoking since it does look like that. (What a dork I was!) I knew it wasn't smoke, though...maybe that means I am also a geek. :P Either way it comes out, it's essentially steam, and not smoke. It's actually kind of interesting, since the reason it happens is because the temperature of the air leaving your body suddenly drops and so it allows condensation to form in the normally invisible vapor...
Anyway, over here in Oregon it's incredibly soggy...but not that cold. At least for December!

Moxicarose,
I was in the U. S. Air Force with a man named Fred Butler who was from Grant's Pass Oregon.
He worked in the timber industry topping trees before they were felled by other men.
At one time I was going to move to Oregon with him and we both thought about joining
the San Francisco Police department. That was while S. F. was still straight as far as I knew.
But then I returned to Indiana, met my wife in 1961 and settled down to rear a family.
