Talk about the weather
Winter is here in Bush. We’re in the low 20's this morning. It’s much worse elsewhere. My friend, Hoot, was talking about Embarrass, MN a couple of weeks ago. They made their way into the news yesterday. In typical, understated Minnesota charm, this quote says it all:
“You keep living, but it gets old after a while,” said Christine Mackai, the town clerk for the community of 691 people in northeast Minnesota.
Yeah.
Kiwifruit posts pictures of the weather in her part of the world. If I could afford to migrate......
Hoot was also talking about Malcolm Gladwell as does the BOTD.
Blog of the day here.
Quote from said blog: "If you haven't guessed by now, this is yet another post on copyright."
Temp is a relative thing of course. Your 20's today were cold for Louisiana, but the 25 degrees when I walked out of work tonight felt great. So it goes. Thanks for the links.
I suppose so, Hoot. My favorite New Orleans weather statement was made by a woman to my wife. Patsy used to work at National Car Rental in the New Orleans International Airport, now known as Louis B Armstrong International Airport. This woman got off of her plane in August and the full force of the heat and humidity hit her. She could barely make it down the air-conditioned concourse to the rental counter.
"You people actually live here?"
Speaking of Embarass, I think they were the town in the news the other day whose temp fell to
-54. That does not take into account the windchill factor. Had to have been close to
-75. Yowzers!
