It’s so cold… The rock rattling around in your shoe is your toe. You have to break the smoke off your chimney You have to open the fridge to heat the house Your false teeth chatter, and they are still in the glass Police tell a robber to freeze, and he does Our words froze in midair and we had to put them in a frying pan to thaw them so we hear what we were talking about. People look forward to getting a fever Mailmen watch out for both dogs and polar bears We had to chisel the dog off a lamp-post Refrigerators are redundant Pet stores sell hamsters, gerbils and penguins

Well, I guess winter hasn't arrived, yet. It's gonna be 75 today. It's 7:40am and it is already 63. Such is the weather in Tidewater.

With my arthritis, I think I can safely say that I will never relocate to be your neighbor. I have spent a majority of my life in warmer climates. Probably half here in Va and half in Florida. Though here in Va there is some potential for seasons, unlike in Florida.

Mel They have been blaming our cold weather systems the last few years on global warming. Re-named them polar vortexes. Haven't seen any -40 or colder in 10 years or so.

The only three countries which are not using the metric system are Liberia, Myanmar and of course… the United States of America. Eventually, it might happen?

My wife wants to turn the A/C on because the dogs are panting. 80° here at noon with a Feels Like of 84° No way I am turning on the air conditioning in December. The dogs can suck it up.
Calling for 80° on Christmas. It was 86° last year, but I think most of the east coast was warm last year.

*L* Man Bob, nice and warm and preparing "food for the lizard". Gotta love that. I just went out and fed the deer and blackbuck. 18 degrees and I was wearing three layers of outerwear and a wool hat and gloves. Guess I didn't move quite far enough south. Global warming! I'd like to give Al Gore a good swift kick in the nuts..Mel
