Could it GET any colder??

Well, I suppose it could, so I should be grateful…and just clamp my beak.

-18 Celsius this morning. We’re stuck with this “refrigerator” system for the next week at least, but it is December after all. I don’t often find a great risk of sunburn, at this time of year. Canada – the ice cube tray of Upper North America…

So, what can people do for fun, when it gets this cold outside?? Certainly not teeter-tottering, when the teeter freezes into place before it totters.

You can still jog. I sure as hell won’t, but you could. I’d spill my hot cocoa if I moved faster than a waddle.

That was “waddle”, not “waffle”, just to clarify…

You could play some street hockey, or broomball. Or curl. Those are all real sports by the way, although admittedly primarily popular in Canada, the Bahamas of the Arctic…

You could even play normal games, like Hide ‘N Seek, although if you Hide longer than 3-4 minutes, you do risk hypothermia. Ten bucks says Seek is sitting comfortably in a warm rumpus room, sitting on their rumpus, while you shiver behind the garbage cans in your back yard.

Man, all this talk is making me timbers shiver. I need to put a few more mini-marshmallows in my hot chocolate.

Chow for now!!
