It's cold

Very, very cold. That's a good thing though because I'd like to do some ice fishing soon.

Why ice fishing?

I'm glad you asked. Ice fishing is a good time to drink some schnapps, throw the football around, and catch up with people I don't see very often. Also, when my family goes ice fishing, we start a fire on the ice (no, I'm not kidding). We use a 55 gallon drum that's been cut in half and put on 2 foot metal legs. It's like a fire pit on stilts. It works great to keep us warm. You may be thinking "what a hillbilly" (or icebilly) but that's alright, I don't mind.

tell your wife to knit you a scarf and some mittens and some socks, and maybe a sweater...oh wait, you have that built-in sweater thing. :-) thanks for the update.
