    Central Minnesota. Enough said.
    About 10 minutes at a stretch was all I could stand before getting back into the truck to warm up.
    That was brutally cold.
    The sissys on the east coast call it brutally cold any time they have to turn the heat on in their cars.
    Lived in Minnesota 10 years and experienced -75 windchills. Brand new house, excellent windows and Jack Frost would still come in and ice them up.
    Just brutal. So glad to be out


    THE END ISN'T NEAR.........IT'S HERE

    The problem is not global warming – it is moral cooling.

    The coldest I've experienced was -37 (not wind chill), here at 7300 feet. Icy roads, totally 'still' and quite dark outside. Had to render roadside assistance to a driver who went off the road and through a fence. I will NOT forget that night. Time flies, as that was back in 1978.
    Sometimes you have to abandon principles and do what's right.

    Didn't your mommas tell you to come in from the cold?
    Plato once said, “Wise men speak because they have something to say. Fools, because they have to say something.”

    "Fere libenter homines id quod volunt credunt." "Men willingly believe what they wish to believe."

    oh yeah, guess it never gets cold here in the Adirondacks. You should probably just focus on what you do know and that will help with your foot-mouth problems.

    Haha maybe. I did try to attach a big smiley gif, but I guess it didn't go thru.

    My upper never showed up from thinwater, so the project hit the back of the bench while I was waiting and it never made it back to the front.
