Thanks Mark, that'll be interesting to watch tonight, to see how low it go...

although, -33 is too much for me. i feel for ya dub.

No worries Jack, yer old uncle is pretty well insulated...
Add to that, several layers of warm clothing, a big furry rabbit bomber hat, Sorel -100 Blizzard Boots, a neoprene mask, & a pair of Ice Armor gloves, & it's all good...
The only drawback is the fact that I take off, & put back on more clothing in one night than the average stripper...

Most think the linguistic profile of the area was a bit over done, but we all dispose of at least one person per year using a wood chipper...

So that part was pretty accurate...

I like the cold better than I used to.I just don't like wearing 50# of clothes!
Shorts,Teva's and T-shirt for me
I keep the house very warm, so all the clothes have to come off when I get inside

This post could go here or in the 3 mystery hoses thread....

OK, (insert Mark's 2 custom frozen icons here)



DONE !...


Good plan Dub, to wait a bit before messing with the bonnet! Growing up in Pittsburgh, one month in my last semester of college it was in the - teens for about 3 weeks. Had a '77 Celica, hood opened from the windshield side, & had to shoot ether into the carb each morning to get it started to get to college. One morning during "finals week" doing that when it was like -19, one of the hood hinges just broke off...frozen metal just sheared off...so just closed it up, drove on as I had to take those finals. Luckily the hood closed the way it did so it couldn't fly up while driving. Brrrrrr!

Another morning that week, the door wouldn't latch after I got in, the latchy thing was frozen and wouldn't engage. Had to crank the heat to high, drive around a parking lot hanging onto the door handle until the cabin warmed the door enough to latch....Brrrrrr!...

OK, definitely confirmed my decision to move to Calif after graduation!

Since I have a drop or two of moderation juice in my little slice of VX-I, I can do a bit of editing in other peoples posts.........

Oh lord, I've created a monster by bringing up the other custom icons issue.....take a look at you-know-who's sig line...wow, must not be a lot to monitor in Fargo ...in the middle of the night....when it's like -15 degrees...not until that dude running laps in the parking lot in the morning......

Very creative brother Dub!! A dancin' Chewbaca, AND a dancin' pirate nanner with a sword (or maybe that's Zorro nanner).....Rock on, Dude!

Oh, I missed the light up eyes on the skull...wow, that's impressive!

[BigSwede]
