Re: [BaadAssGremlins] Iced In Again

[<eddiestakes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

My question is, can you pee pee ice cubes? Actually I don't I could even 
find mine if it got below 20 degrees. Hell, can't find it now and it is 58 
degrees. Paige! Have you seen it, I lost it again! This gives a whole new 
meaning to cabin fever. I wonder if this would help Doc's broken ribs if he 
could not feel his chest? Does higher octang gas freeze quicker? How many 
hours of sunlight a day up there? Can you cap a polar bear's ass or do 
bullets freeze too? And is there such a thing as polar bear tacos? 
Mmmmm.....

Youse guys got it easy... I know I complain about the weather every year at 
this time too, but today its -34C and with the wind its -46C.  That's cold 
even for here.

Converted to Farenheit, that's -29.2F and -50.8F respectively.   Can you 
guys imagine how cold that is?
A typical walk-in freezer temp is between 17F and 10F.

I walk two blocks to work and bundled up in scarf, mitts, hat, 2 jackets. 
Even with that on, my face is frozen by the time I get in (and by frozen, I 
mean I have no feeling in it).

Exposed flesh freezes within five minutes.  If I were to put a thawed steak 
on my front step, it would easily be frozen solid within half an hour. 
Heaven forbid that your furnace stops working or your car heater core goes 
south.  Cars won't even start (or turn over for that matter) at these temps. 
The crankcase oil is like molasses.  The only way to get your car going is 
to plug it in (almost every car in Canada is equipped with a block heater).

I keep a spare car battery in my house because every time I need to start my 
car, I swap out the battery.  The battery that is left in the car overnight 
is dead from the cold.

I WISH I could work on my car, but I don't feel like freezing my hands.  My 
daily driver has a flat tire and I refuse to change it during these temps. 
Luckily everything I need is within two blocks of my home so I can get away 
with not driving for a few days.

I would be prancing around in a t-shirt and shorts if I had 50F weather 
(that's like 10C).  In fact, in the springtime after the thaw, I actually do 
that because my body is so accustomed to the cold that it feels almost hot 
outside.

I'm in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan.  Here is a link showing current conditions 
in my city.

Hows that for cold?


And THAT is why Canada is a great place to live, LOL.
