Wow, is it COLD!!

I'm from the centre of Canada where the temperature is known to drop to very low places on the thermometer and not come back up until somebody says, "Everyone ready to go to Cancun?" So you'd think that I'd be as used to the cold as a Yeti. Not so. It's been particularly cold, lately -- even for me. I thought it was just me getting old and soft. But no.

It seems it's been really cold lately. Even The Weather Network has had to make changes to its reporting. Plus temperatures just look better! [Note the scale: absolute zero Kelvin is -236 degree centigrade, I think. ed.]



My friend Sanjay, from Chicago, who is an engineer and knows these things, recommends pulling the electrical cabling out of the house because at these temperatures they just become super-conductors. Well, gonna hafta rely on fire, I guess.
