I just saw this and of course thought of Alix and Ken:LOL:

It's Winter here in Canada...
And the gentle breezes blow,
Seventy miles an hour,
At twenty five degrees below.

Oh, how I love Canada,
When the snow's up to your butt,
You take a breath of Winter
And your nose gets frozen shut.

Yes, the weather here is wonderful,
So I guess I'll hang around,
I never could leave Canada......



'Cuz I'm frozen to the ground!!!

ROFL Minus 17 here today, and a forecast of up to 20 cm's of snow tomorrow. My butt really will be frozen!!! :LOL: Thanks for the chuckle!
 
Oh man, I would love to have a real winter with snow, but, I really feel for you all up there. I don't know how you handle that bone chilling freeze!! How the heck do you stay warm??
 
Its not always freezing. And we sort of wear it as a badge of honour that we can regularly survive such stupid cold. LOL. I found a little something to add to your thread. Its always made me chuckle. (And I can't tell you how we stay warm, its a PG site! ;) )
