How sad that I'm excited to go to the garage today and run the monster for 5 minutes. You warm weather people should take a moment to reflect on your good fortune to be where you are. Those of us in the frozen tundra are really feeling the weight of the winter weather right about now.

about 45 days until the spring thaw. ugh.

Not rubbing it in but this Friday here in Dallas they are forecasting 70 degrees and sunny. Now that's the kind of Texas January weather I like!! [clap] [thumbsup] [moto]
I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.

That was just down right mean. We actually had our first day in about a week above 15 degrees.

We'll be thinkin' about you when you've had a month of 100 plus temps and it's only in the 70s and 80s up North.

We haven't seen temps above freezing since before Christmas. My bike is scattered between the garage, the basement, and my truck. If it gets any worse, I'll have to write a country/western song.

100 degrees is still 100 degrees at 100 miles an hour.  Hot air is hot. :)

But mass transfer accelerated by highly turbulent air can make it feel much better.
