The temperature at my house dropped 48 degrees in about 5 hours. Itโ€™s now so cold that my storm door is covered in ice, which Truffle thinks is delicious.
Sending my love and appreciation out to the workers who are keeping the power on, the internet connected, the roads safe, and the water flowing on a night so hideously cold and windy that I canโ€™t even imagine what youโ€™re dealing with right now. Stay safe, even if that means people are inconvenienced. We appreciate you.
@couts yeah. Itโ€™s really nasty out there. These folks really do the heavy lifting & should be appreciated & compensated accordingly.
@couts And poor Santa in such cold weather.. At least he and the reindeer are acclimatize to the North Pole .

I heard that Minnesota is considering changing the state name to HOTH!

One of my friends just had to climb out a window because his door was blocked by a huge drift!

@couts Also, y'all selling beer at the various stores. Cheers.
@couts I spent almost 4 decades in broadcast TV news. That means I worked a lot of holidays. I eventually learned that Christmas was one of the better holidays to draw for working. Expectations were very low, almost everybody you meet is in the same boat or feels very sorry for you and tries to feed you. I was almost force-fed some wonderful Korean dumplings one Christmas and then she insisted I take some with me. They were pure ambrosia of some rare porcine nature.
