I biked some forest trails with some of my friends yesterday. It was 19º F for most of the day.
I made the mistake of wearing a thin pair of gloves and thin socks... *brrrrrrrr*

kick...well, I'll stop whining about the weather then...Though freezing that would mean an Elf Stedentocht over here, an heroic iceskating contest over 200 kilometre...but the last one was in 1997....

I read online a few days ago that it was on, the canals were all frozen so it could be done.

Microwave some baklava and stuff it down your shirt and pants, that'll keep you warm, uncomfortable, but warm nonetheless.

Not really, allthough a lot of people, in Fryslan, a province I'm working -also the first foreign state ever to recognize the US, were hoping. They are very much into skating, consider themselves to be 'real' Dutch -all the others are lame-  and they allways hope for an Elf Stedentocht. If weatherconditions were the other way around, in the south of holland temperatures dropped to -20 degrees, there might have been one. For now we just wait....

Winter is an especially rotten time for me to be alive. Not only am I as thinly-built as a person can be (not a pinch of blubber to be found) but my thyroid condition makes me much more sensitive to cold temperatures. I wish I could hibernate.

It's pretty cold where I'm at with it being only 60ºF-70ºF.

Do not anger me, young Uruk.

We have here -2 to -11 Celsius degrees - all covered in snow and ice. I love it. But it is still much warmer than it was in the last years due to the global warming  :'(
Yeah. And here we're seeing temperatures that are setting record lows.

Must be continental warming. :roll:

Hey, we are in the middle of the winter (well, in the north, however...).
Normally it gets about -18 C degrees (during night).

If we are cold, we can put on some "baklavas"  :uh-huh:

But what will we do, if it is getting hotter and hotter? Running naked to work? :o
