Re: What's the latest in people's lives?
Around here, it's common verbal shorthand to describe the wind chill as if it were temperature.
I can't stand nothing dull
I got the high gloss luster
I'll massacre your ass as fast
as Bull offed Custer

True, but it would be better - and indeed correct - to say that a lack of wind made it hotter, rather than a presence of wind making it cooler.Mikey wrote:Around here, it's common verbal shorthand to describe the wind chill as if it were temperature.

Meh. Perception is reality. The point of discussing the temperature is how cold I will feel outside.

In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

We had great fun in the Antarctic Centre in New Zealand, where you can experience wind chill at the touch of a button

Neat.
It really goes all the way to -25 F? Pretty darn cold.

What does defeat mean to you?
Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

I have more wind chill during the winter than I ever wanted. Why would go push a button to create more?

Cool (sorry couldn't resist) We stayed in the hotel opposite the airport overnight while waiting for a flight the next day. It was just around the corner.Teaos wrote:About 15 minutes from my house...

I'm with Mikey...that's just not right to create more.

Well, it's gotten all the way down to 75f out here. Welcome to winter in Hawaii

the women are mighty fine.
They look like Phyllis Diller,

I love watching people who grew up here. They are bundeled up with thick jackets and I'm still going in a tank top and shorts
