    I'm sure.

    I wonder if your pee would freeze before hitting the ground at that temp?

    That's about the temperature where you can't drive because even if your car does start your tires are frozen to the ground.

    The high here in Gunnison, CO was -9F. It was -34F this morning - its hard to roll out of bed to go to class when it's that cold out.

    After conducting a scientific study, I've concluded that your piss doesn't freeze instantly, but shrinkage is significantly increased when the temperature is below zero.

    i tried to take the dogs for a walk this morning here in westminster where the mercury was reading -5 outside my door without windchill. Shasta made it 50 yards before he started whinning and picking up his paws like it hurt, while my skinny dog was running around like a nut. Jeeeez, what bunch of babies.

    -45 fuuuuuuuggginA I've been in -20 without windchill and it was naaaasty, killington, Vt. IT wasn't worth it, gloves were freezing to the chair.

    You're stoked on what the temps are doing to your snow pack.

    yeah, my supervisor from WP sent me an e-mail this morning that they were digging out a few tents in -40 at the base this morning. Fuck that, no way I would be out there only making $8.50 an hour.
