Yes, the only white in our Christmas is the skin of many of the lovely tourists on the beach (well, white for the 15 minutes before they're bright red

)

Cheers,

This describes me perfectly!

I lived in Fort Lauderdale, Florida for 8 years and NEVER had anything even closely approaching a tan.

Strangers would feel completely comfortable walking up to me and pointing out the fact that I was very white.

Duh! Like I don't see myself in a mirror everyday. Sheesh.

It's really cold here....approaching absolute zero I think (note the temp on the local news website):

vivaldirules · 12-09-2009, 08:49 AM

Cool! I mean, erm, cold! 65 K, eh? So how does it feel to actually breathe liquid air? Don't worry, though. I once plunged goldfish into liquid oxygen and revived them since they were able to "breathe" in it. Of course, you'll have all that nitrogen, too, and then there's the issue that your little toes just might be a bit on the frosty side. And then there's what happens when your moustache hairs get brittle and break off. Dear me!

Oh yes, brittle, broken off moustache hair in the morning coffe... I hate when that happens.

WOW! I would tell you to try and stay warm, but I don't think there is any hope for you!

I was looking at the Accuweather app on my Palm Pre a few days ago and it told me that the temperature in NoVA was in the 80's and sunny.

I don't know who was entering the data, but it was in the 30's and we were expecting snow (which we did get ~ the big wet clumpy kind that's a mess to drive in). I told my daughter it looked like she was the data entry operator.

She doesn't like to give anyone a straight answer.

Currently -3°C.

Could you please ask your wife to start flapping her wings? I prefer the warmth and rain of a pineapple express to this frigid air from Alaska.

vivaldirules · 12-09-2009, 09:40 AM

Wow. The bitter cold really is here. High of 55 F today. I had better take a sweater. (doggie runs and hides)
