It's so true. It was a warm day today at 37. Drove home with the sunroof open.

I think if it got up to 37 here, we'd be grilling steaks in the front yard.

Wow! You New Englanders are a hardy bunch. This SoCal boy stands in awe and shock. I really really wish I could be so manly - guess I'll have to settle for this instead...

Lol. North Arkansas has surprising seasons, especially for us ourselves. :p It can get up to 110(or more, though not normal) and people complain it's hot. Meh. Or it can get ten below(or less) and people complain it's cold. Meh. I wear windpants and a t-shirt all year long, no jackets no goves. Perhaps if people wouldn't be so afraid of the weather and try to stay at their temperature, they wouldn't have to? :p
