Whoops! You are in the wrong thread.

You are looking for either "It's So HOT....."
or
"I like to make fun of people in cold climates..."

I'ts so cold that one of my speaker froze the other day. Now that I fixed this one, the second one froze hard on me. Grrr, guess I'll have to take longer/hotter trips with the car (ohh, wait, someone is whispering that I should turn on the heat from time to time, maybe that's an idea...)

It's so cold (and icy/snowy), that the deer are herbivorizing my thesis project!! I think they need to reintroduce coyotes on campus.
...and my MPGs are steadily falling on my short trips to/fro campus. I need to buy a ski jacket and ride my bike to campus.

Amen! Not that cold here - 30s in the valley, 20s in the mountains. Got the new skis, fresh cold powder, and the dog running down the trail ahead...
