    That doesn't make it less cold.

    My wife is from northern Indiana, about 30 minutes away from South Bend. She would get lake effect on top of the cold, so it would be balls cold for months with no sun. It's why she lives here now. She had a choice and she took it. Not sure why anyone would chose to live there. My sister, who is an idiot, moved to Michigan about 10 minutes from the lake, because Texas was the problem in her life. **** that noise.

    I didn't know we had a thread full of vaginas in here.

    Buy some thermals and gloves you fruit cakes. Go for a hike and enjoy the crisp nipples.

    My digital thermostat dealio is showing 30 degrees in North Texas. Yet, the weather I check everywhere say it's 14 degrees at DFW airport...which I'm not far from. What gives?

    @Os Trigonum we got a bunch of Sengun lovers in here who can't stand a day out of a Mediterranean paradise

    Is your home located on a geyser?

    16 degrees fahrenheit, power grid is down... on solar.

    Been a long slog to get everything working without the power company. Had to run generator until the sun came up as the batteries couldn't handle a 10kw load (3 households worth). The panels love the cold and are working as expected.

    It's not broken, you're using it wrong. DFW isn't north Texas. Muleshoe, TX is.

    Next you're going to say Houston is south Texas.

    1st time I experienced real snow in my life, I thought “huh, this is cool”…until I slipped on some sludge on the sidewalk and fell on my ass

    then I limped back inside

    Bailing to hang out with Ted in Cancun was the right choice.

    If by igloo you mean drunk, even while teaching kids science in middle school, yes.

    Atmos is apparently having low gas pressure issues and is asking customers to conserve on usage. And, they want you to know their staff are all on holidays so...piss off eh!

    Had a close call this morning. My pipe in the backyard was frozen even though I had wrapped it. I got out my leaf blower and blew the faucet until water started trickling out. Then it started pouring out.

    I guess I'll wrap it a little better tonight. Good thing I was home today.

    Just different strokes. I left Houston for Chicago. I’d take a Chicago winter over Houston summer any day.
