This is supposed to be "The South", it's 15° F at 7:00 am
in Birmingham, AL. There are some valleys in the area that
I know are a lot colder. Darn Canadian imports, y'all just
had to stick that cold tongue out at us. I've heard it called
The Alberta Express. BRRRRRRRR!

NC I95, almost SC. Lower 20's nightly for like a week. About 10
degrees lower than the avg for this time in Jan. 14 slated for weekend..

...on the bright side

don't have a "-" in front of that 20 like I've experienced many years
up north. And don't have 33" of snow like S.O. had last weekend either..

We get a bunch of Damn Yankees coming down here from time to time
and when they see how beautiful it is, we can't get those suckers
to leave. *snicker*

TDD

I thought we were just "Yankees" when we visit and "Damn Yankees" when
we stay? *I'm a Damn Yankee... unless this weather stays so damn cold!- Hide quoted text -

That reminds me of a "Damn Yankee" neighbor I had for many years. He
constantly complained about living in Texas, the heat, the humidity,
everything for years on end. Then came the opportunity for him to
return to his former home when his company offered him a transfer back
home. It was a promotion with a nice increase in pay but was also a
take it or you are out proposal since they were closing the local
operations down. Suddenly, this log term hate the heat, humidity, and
lack of a winter advocate decides that it ain't so bad after all,
resigned his job and became a very satisfied "Damn Yankee". He never
complained again and has now retired here. Seems that his memories of
the bitter cold were reason enough to forget the heat of summer.
