Move to AZ and in 3 years you'll have cranberry juice for blood. At 60 I'm wearing a jacket.

Sandy is exactly correct.
A guy I know was visiting from New York and went swimming in Febuary.
We still laugh.
It was 40 on the way in to work this morning and the blanket was on 2 last night.
I got a sunburn hooking up my First Gear electric coat.
It goes on, and on, and on.

I saw that. . . and while I didn't know that actual temp, I knew -40 wasn't cold enough, but hey, the Lions could never win the super bowl either  Cheesy

yeah, I think it's a matter of what your used to!

Shoot when I was in Iraq, it'd drop down into the 60's and I'd be wearing all kinds of cold weather gear and shivering like it was FREEZING. Now, yesterday it got up into the 30's here and I went for a run outside.
