My daughter in Wisconsin said she had 13 inches of snow. She also said she could tell how cold it was by how much her feet got numb between the buildings at school.   Now that is cold!

She must go to school close to where my brother went...he used to talk about the inches of snowfall on top of the several FEET already on the ground. (He now lives in Tucson, go figure!)

Hey, don't feel bad oswald. I had to look up capon and got this: "A capon is a cockerel (a male chicken) whose reproductive organs were removed at a young age. Typically, the castration is performed when the chicken is between 6 and 20 weeks old." Then I was thinking... "Oh... that's why it's so cold...?"

You know, I've never really understood that Punxsutawney Phil thing.  So if he sees his shadow, there's supposedly six more weeks of winter.  But if he doesn't see his shadow, what???   ???    Isn't there still about 6 more weeks of winter?  We usually start experiencing signs of spring sometime around the middle of March around where I live (NW Illinois).  Either way, hubby and I are on our way to California this weekend for about 10 days in the Palm Springs area.  I've had enough of all this cold and snow and I've been hibernating much too long.  I'm anxious for warmer weather and the chance to not have to bundle up when I go outside.

Sunshine and palm trees ... I can't wait!   :yahoo;

Oswald, don't feel bad...I didn't get the chicken thing or the brass monkey thing either.  Even with the explanations, I'm still not getting it.  I'm not a blonde, so it must be senility -- Damn! and I'm only 45.  I have heard, however, that the mind is the first thing to go.

Near the coast of North Carolina, it's 68 degrees today and a little windy.  It's supposed to be colder tomorrow (in the mid- to upper 50's).  In my part of the state, we haven't seen snow in about five years -- not even a flake.  We did get about two inches of rain early this morning -- 3 a.m. to about 8     8)).

It was so cold here today that when I tried to open the back door of the car to get the ice scraper out, it was frozen shut.  I yanked at to get it open, and only succeeded in wedging some ice in the the small crack I had wedged open.  Then I couldn't get the door to either open OR close.  I drove the hour to my doctor's appointment with a persistent  ;musicalnote; Bing,  ;musicalnote; Bing! to warn me that the door was ajar.   :banghead;

I lived in western Mass for 4 years. One day we had snow falling, the next day it was 65.  :banghead;

Awright, I got the Chicken with the Cap On, but the brass monkey looking for a welding kit???  :-\

In the UK there's a saying that 'I'ts cold enough to freeze the balls off a brass monkey' Balls being the slang for testicles.

Must be a Chrysler new yorker. That car doesn't know the difference between a door or a jar. False advertising. :)

Makes more sense when you explain it that way, Ken.  Thanks! (get it, Oswald?)

Could have been worse, I suppose.  We borrowed a luxury sedan for a trip once - and the darn thing didn't just Bing  ;musicalnote;, it talked.  Better the binging than a voice over!  "The door is ajar.  The door is ajar."  How very Zen!
