Too cold
Hi all. It's too cold here! Right now it's -1F with expected high of 4F
changing to -5 by early evening. Not to mention the flurries and lake effect snow. SIGH. I was supposed to work today but called the boss and requested a jail break, which he summarily approved! Now onto topic. With the onslaught of cold weather the furry blankets are brought out, much to the cats' delight. I can't sit in my chair without Patrick and Nancy on my lap with Moogie at my feet on the end of the recliner. Mr. Bob even came over and slept on top of my chair, trying to decide if he was cold enough to snuggle with the other cats. Moose usually accompanies me outside to have a cigarette (must protect me from terrorist squirrels and the like) but last night she decided it was too cold and refused to protect me on my nicotine break. She's become a subterranean Moose of late, crawling under the blankets to sleep with us! She thinks she's a cat. How's the weather where you are? Stacey |

Stacey The National Weather Service has issued a wind chill warning for later today, tonight and tomorrow morning around these parts (Western Mass.).

All I can say is, if the SO doesn't want to drive me right to the door of my building tomorrow morning (6:00 AM), I'm not going to work. The four minute walk from where I park to where I work will be enough to freeze my frickin' lungs! I want to be my cat - he's got heated beds in two rooms, full food & water, and a hoomin home to cuddle with him most of the day. It just ain't fair. M. |

We have a wind chill warning here in Connectiuct too. I had a few places I
had to go today so I went out this morning before it got any colder. It was 10 degrees with little wind. I keep telling my cats they don't know how lucky they are to have a warm house to live in.

Today, just before 2:00 PM, the temperature is down to 76 degrees. Nice, comfortable weather is kind of nice, but after a while you *can* get tired of it. |

Where do you live? I could go 76 degrees about now. Can you send me some
warm weather? Ann "Dan Mahoney" wrote in message ... Ann wrote: We have a wind chill warning here in Connectiuct too.

Speaking of cold in New England:
NEW ENGLAND TEMPERATURE CONVERSION CHART LOL..this is pretty funny. NEW ENGLAND TEMPERATURE CONVERSION CHART 60° F: Southern Californians shiver uncontrollably. People in New England sunbathe. 50° F: New Yorkers try to turn on the heat. People in New England plant gardens. 40° F: Italian & English cars won't start. People in New England drive with the windows down. 32° F: Distilled water freezes. Maine's Moosehead Lake's water gets thicker. 20° F: Floridians don coats, thermal underwear, gloves, wool hats. People in New England throw on a flannel shirt. 15° F: New York landlords finally turn up the heat. People in New England have the last cookout before it gets cold. 0° F: All the people in Miami die. New Englanders close the windows. 10° below zero: Californians fly away to Mexico. The Girl Scouts in New England are selling cookies door to door. 25° below zero: Hollywood disintegrates. People in New England get out their winter coats. 40° below zero: Washington, DC runs out of hot air. People in New England let the dogs sleep indoors. 100° below zero: Santa Claus abandons the North Pole. New Englanders get frustrated because they can't start their "kahs." 460° below zero: All atomic motion stops (absolute zero on the Kelvin scale). People in New England start saying, "cold 'nuff for ya?" 500° below zero: Hell freezes over. The Red Sox win the World Series.

Norway is very much like New England, it seems, except Norwegians couldn't care less about Red Sox. Hell freezes over. Norway wins Soccer WC. Hans -11° C here now (Converted for ignorants: 12° F) |
