Unforgiving cold snap?
I was not aware that most of the time the weather could grant absolution for my sins.

tough on the homeless, too. A woman vet I know with mental issues was released to the streets in Jersey instead of a VA mental hospital last Feb. Not Bbbbrrrrr but gggrrrrrr. Stupid judge.

Wow - glad I don’t have my newspaper route from sixty years ago in this kind of weather - looking forward to deliveries over three miles each day in 25 degrees for two weeks would have been a major downer - thank goodness we didn’t have this global warming stuff way back then.....

I am about 30 miles west of Minot out in the boonies.

Sorry...but we had to turn on the heat in the pool. I do miss the snow, but I'd rather see Mrs Deplorable in a bikini than in layers of clothing...😀

Because if you move from California, California liberals will throw a party, since you are the last conservative in the state? 😀

It was 2 below this morning, but...we are such wimps! I heard it was 36 below zero in Minnesota!
I hear about this, and I think of our Marines, a single division surrounded by 10 divisions of Chinese troops at the Chosin Reservoir in Korea in 1950, with temperatures at 35 below zero, and a wind chill that took it down to around 70 below zero...and I thought...how did they do that? How did they defeat them, outnumbered 10-1, in weather like that? How?
And then you find out that some of those exact same Marines, only five years or so before, had been fighting under conditions on Peleliu in the Pacific, with no water, in temperatures that got as high as 115 degrees, and you think...man, talk about being dealt really bad hands.

1. You're downright MEAN!
2. Pictures of Mrs. Deplorable in her bikini by the pool or it didn't happen.

IIRC the troops in Korea were ill equipped for the cold weather———as I recall there was much press coverage about this.I specifically remember something about the boots.
Long time ago so I could be mistaken.

I think you are right, they had an issue with some boots that were supposed to help them but ended up causing frostbite because they didn’t breathe, but I might be getting that mixed up with the Battle of The Bulge...
