Sparky, consider it done. We'll try waving our arms and blowing really hard, too. Our neighbors will enjoy it, at least. Or call the cops.

Good morning (again) all. After only a weekend in Manhattan, and reading about all you Blundercicles up there, I hereby promise that (a) at least this winter, I will not complain about the cold weather we occasionally get, since in comparison it is not cold at all. After a ride in the Manhattan-to-Newark rush hour traffic, I will do my best to avoid complaining about the traffic here. I'll take our nutso traffic over that any day.

Sparkdon, when I lived in sunny Vancouver, we heard rumors that there where places in Canada that got cold, but we always thought that they were old wives tales to keep us next to the ocean, but it sounds like it does get a little chilly where you are. Have you ever thought of moving to Vancouver?
I am serious, Vancouver is warmer then it is here, of course go 40 miles north or east and it gets real cold real fast, but Vancouver is warm, wet but warm, a warm wet, okay you will rust but it is warm, warm and wet.

Waves to everyone, and hugs and warm thoughts to those in need of them.

Their claim to fame was at one time the coldest recorded temperature in Canada -72 degrees.<img src="http://www.arlo.net/ubb/smilies/eek.gif" width=15 height=15>(3rd pic in gallery) http://www.nwconx.net/~wrlib/gallery.htm

Brrrrr....

And thanks, Sparkydon. You just made me some big brownie points with a W-t-P fanatic friend at work. (She's young. I'm working on a transfer of her fanaticism to Folk. This will help.) <img src="http://www.arlo.net/ubb/smilies/smile.gif" width=15 height=15>

Sparky, I was very surprised to find White River on the Trans-canada 1, I mean really, it was just a weird event that it got down to -72, that far South, was'nt it?
I love Winnie the Poo, he is so smart, he one comment "Isn't it just like a jar of honey to run out of it's self right in the middle of being eaten" is priceless.
What a wonderful town, two gas stations, one a Huskey, several motel/inn/cabins and a trading post, why they even have indoor bathrooms. What a great place to visit.
Only catholic schools, hmmmmm, I wonder what the story is? "I am very sorry sister, but I look strange in the school uniform, I am a Hindu" please add your own accent.
As I recall in vancouver, there were only about 20% of the students with EFL the rest were ESL.
