It's too damn cold outside to anything. It's even too cold outside to GO OUTSIDE. It hasn't gotten above -20 in ACTUAL AIR TEMPERATURE all day. The wind chill is still -35. So I decided to skip my two lecture classes and call in sick from work today. If it gets above -10 tomorrow (which it probably will), I'll do my regular thing. But today, I'm not going out for ANY DAMN REASON. I'm not gonna be the one stuck with frostbite.

They should have just closed down the city today. This weather is very dangerous.

1. Last night I was out working in a windchill of -56 C.
Had to replace the block heater plug on my car.

3. You call Fargo weenie territory?
Hell, I'm in (lower) Michigan and can't take this winter anymore. Fargo - now that's winter (like Michigan's UP). As for those Canadians, at least they have health care when they're sick. Eh?
