AHAHAHAHA!!!!! Wow that's SO true! Except you left out the windchills . . . oh wait . . . that's for North Dakotans to claim as bragging rights. :)
Does Washington D.C. ever run out of hot air? They're the real cause of global warming!!
Lol! Most of this is pretty accurate, although I would have to say at 500 below, Homeschools are probably the only ones open. :-)
Thanks for sharing that...

ha-ha! This is really too funny! I'll have to show this to my MN-born mother and my AR-born father! :D
That's funny!! I live in New Mexico and I think we get to claim the cold windchills... 40 below is a fairly normal windchill when it's the dead of winter... Although it's been sunbathing weather lately (40 above)
