I love cold weather

If you know me, you know I love cold. Sleeping outside in -20 with -40 wind chill, yeah done that. Playing outside all day long in the winter- yep, still do that.

There is the old proverb: "there is no such thing as bad weather, only inappropriate clothing." Word.

I just got this via email, enjoy.

Cold Weather behavior:

60 above zero: Floridians turn on the heat. Minnesotans plant gardens.

50 above zero: Californians shiver uncontrollably. People are sunbathing in Duluth .

40 above zero: Import cars won't start. Minnesotans drive with the sunroof open.

32 above zero: Distilled water freezes. The water in Bemidji gets thicker.

20 above zero: New Mexicans don long johns, parkas and wool hats & mittens. Minnesotans throw on a flannel shirt.

15 above zero: New York landlords finally turn on the heat. People in Minnesota have one last cookout before it gets cold.

Zero: People in Miami all die. Minnesotans close the windows.

10 below zero: Californians fly away to Mexico . Minnesotans dig their winter coats out of storage.

25 below zero: Hollywood disintegrates. Girl Scouts in Minnesota are selling cookies door to door.

40 below zero: Washington , D.C. finally runs out of hot air. People in Minnesota let their dogs sleep indoors.

100 below zero: Santa Claus abandons the North Pole. Minnesotans get upset because the Mini-Van won't start.

460 below zero: ALL atomic motion stops (absolute zero on the Kelvin scale). People in Minnesota can be heard to say, "Cold 'nuff fer ya?"

500 below zero: Hell freezes over. Minnesota schools delayed 2 hours.

I love Mondays

Shrek, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt were all having lunch together.

Shrek said, 'I have always thought that I'm the strongest man in the
world, but how can I be sure?
Brad Pitt said, 'I'm pretty sure I'm the most handsome man alive but
I've never had it confirmed.'
Angelina Jolie agreed. 'I'm told I'm the sexiest of them all, but
sometimes I wonder.'

They all decided that the best way to find out if their beliefs were
true was to ask the famed talking 'mirror, mirror on the wall' to
confirm for them whether Shrek was the strongest, Brad Pitt was the
most handsome. Angelina Jolie was the sexiest.

They agreed to meet again the next day for lunch to discuss their
findings.
The next day Shrek walked up with a smile. 'Well, it's true. The mirror
told me that I am the strongest man in the world.' Brad perked up
and said: 'And I know for sure that I'm the most handsome man
alive.' But
Angelina lifted her sad but pretty face and said...

Who the heck is Nicole?
