Well, gang, my mind is going....I thought this topic was here. The "How Hot" one is, but I checked back through all the 2yrs.3 mo. of threads (a real trip back in time, by the way) and din't see it. So here goes-and Spiritman will just have to use his imagination since cold out there is when it dips into the 50's!)


It was SO cold that the bottle of undiluted anti-freeze I left on the back step froze!

One of the reasons I left is because it was so cold I had to hang an electric light under my car to keep the fuel line from freezing. That's not imagination, it's memory.

Actually, I remember when it was so cold the vapor from my exhale caused icicles on my moustache.

Mr. Spiritman, you have me "laughing out loud"!

It's so cold here that I've had to open the refrigerator door to warm up the house........(and that's closer to the truth than you should know!)

This reminds me of my life in Germany. Those Germans are so clever. They have small pantries that have windows that open to the outside. In the winter the window is left open and the pantry serves as a large refrigerator.

From Jay Leno, last night:

It’s freezing in Iowa. It’s like 20 degrees in Iowa. In fact, it is so cold, Hillary Clinton can actually see Barack Obama’s breath breathing down her neck.
