    Why do people worry more if you argue with your voices than if you just talk with them? What about if you lose those arguements?

    It's snowing and blowing here but pretty mild compared to Saskatchewan - it's only -12C right now, not much more than -25C with the wind chill

    Funny you should ask! While it's not nearly as cold as what you got going up in the great white north, weather had been kinda.......funky lately. Got 4 inches of snow last Tuesday and 7 inches of snow this Tuesday, both days followed by freezing rain. In between the snow temps have been fluttering between about 30F to about 60F, it was 50F this morning with hard rain, but now at 13:30 its snowing and has been since 10:00, got about an inch on the ground. Temps tonight falling way below freezing, and by Sunday night we will be down to 8F. I know most people aren't that concerned with the weather, but I'm on the dole so it's pretty much my main concern now a days . ? when it gets that cold doesn't every part of your body say F^#K it, I ain't goin out in THAT!

    My only "biological forcaster" is my right knee.

    been stiff for a couple weeks now.

    can't exactly avoid cold weather for 8 months of the year up here.

    Not to mention getting out his extra strong glasses, rummaging around till he finds the worlds smallest violin, and playing "Hearts and Flowers" for ya!

    Can't complain here, yesterday started off warm enough that we got heavy rain instead of snow early on, which melted the snow we got Wednesday and left the ground so warm and wet that when it finally did change over to snow, it melted as fast as it hit ground. Enough sun and wind in the afternoon to dry things up before dark, so no major icy patches this morning. Right now it's 18f, may hit 30f this afternoon. Not bad at all for this time of year.

    It was a very unusually warm weather here. In fact, I never saw such weather at this time of year. It's the middle of winter and the weather is just like a late autumn. You can walk outdoors with only a sweater. Of course, no snow. Wel this seems to change, the days (and especially the nights) became colder now.

    Pants and long sleeve shirt here today. Overcast. Overall, it has been an unusually warm winter here so far this year.

    My wife had to move the little Sony TV out to the front yard to sit in the sun and watch the STEELERS game. About 75 degrees F, but I can't have my cigar in the house. Life is good.

    Jur and friends,

    I'm sorry..............NOT !!!!!!!!!

    Jaxon

    But remember boys and girls, this is where the mountain came down and buried our neighbors in La Conchita last week , and the folks in Follows Camp are stranded (can't go to work, aww ) by the San Gabriel River.

    It ain't all roses.............

    -54F last night at Embarrass, MN. The record is -60. This is no wind chill either, straight temperature. Why am I here?
