Location: mi | I think I figured it out this morning. I am not sure what made the light bulb come on but..... I am 99% sure all of this cold is the Canadians fault. I believe they have silently waged a war against the USA and have figured out a way to just freeze us out. I believe they are sending down these polar vortex's in hopes that we will all quietly just head south and they can take over.... I am right aren't I. Come on you can tell us. FYI you are VERY close to winning....

Location: mi | No No you guys keep that up there. We are in the -teens right now for wind chills that is enough. I just figured you were all so used to this you were trying to use it against in some way. As for the hockey I am totally fine with you guys dominating us in that if it means we are back to nice regular winters. We have football that is enough. So if your not after our wonderful great lakes please send these vortexs back to the polar bears please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

| We're just sharing the wealth. :)
I gotta say though, this weather sure separates dedicated from the lazy. You know you're dedicated to your horse when you are willing to freeze your fingers off for him!! |

When the snow is that deep you swim through it, you certainly can't walk! |

I can't even look at the weather forecast anymore.

Location: North of the 49th Parallel | I'm at the point of pimping myself out to anyone who has cute, single son's in their 20s. I only have one horse, not too crazy of a barrel racer, in University full time. I can't stay in Canada any longer. This weather is BS. With that being said, it's a good week to be laid up by knee surgery. |

| I just keep thinking of the people in the states saying it is - whatever... and they are F... Convert our -50C to F lol! And, I really think Alaska is giving it to Canada....
Mind you, I cant say much about Alberta, SK and MB. I am southern BC and it is only -5C right now.. snowing.. but I can still keep warm and do stuff outside! |
