  • Winter is nearly upon us

    Wow, it's hard to believe it's almost Winter (December 21). The years/months/weeks/days just blend together so quickly now, don't they? What are you doing this Winter? Also, share your favorite Winter memories here.

    Nearly upon us?

    It's been ~-4F to -10F for a week and we've had tons of snow.

    I happen to love winter. I sit in a cozy armchair infront of the big picture windows, light a roaring fire in the fireplace, then sit down to read a good book.

    I'll occasionally whip up a good cup of coffee to drink also. Or a tumbler of Scotch, depending on the hour of the day.

            It's 81F here, and tomorrow it's getting up to 85F. Winter doesn't start here until January...sometimes not even then.

                I was puzzling over this, but I think I figured it out. You drink coffee at night, to help you stay awake, and Scotch in the mornings and afternoons to help you chill out and relax. Right?

                    What's this Fahrenheit ****!? Every time I see 'F' I have to make some stupid calculation to make it make sense in Celsius!

                    9c down to 0c here.
                    Is it me, or is MOBIUS a horrible person?

                      Maybe you should join the rest of the world in using Fahrenheit then.

                        The rest of the world uses celsius. (at least all the bits of the world that matter)

                            It's a perfect 65 degrees F here in Philly.

                            Canada is clearly a frozen hellhole.

                              I love it.

                              Also, not sure if you are aware, but hell is hot, not cool. Canada is farther from hell than most countries.
