I’m in west central Indiana, and it’s a cool 26F this morning, a steady 20mph wind, ice hanging off everything, and about 8" of snow. It finally looks like winter! Too bad it’s going to get up to nearly 50F before the week is out. ---

[QUOTE=Lust4Life] Huh ! Cold ?you Northeners are lucky! Down here in the sunny south its been -6 at night,but we’re well hard so we can take it. Suvverners hard? You must be kidding matey. I 'member when I used to work a 23 hour shift down t’pit, walk home 35 miles through broken glass just for a nibble of half a roofing slate before setting off to climb up chimblies in order to clean 'em. You don’t know you’re born. Suvvern softies ---

For fucks sake we make old age pensioners work 73 hour shifts down here !and they’re grateful for being treated so leniently. If you want a job done right get a southerner. If you want a job that goes on forever and all the blokes wear dresses then get suuumbody from up up north. ---
