You have no winter!

And I must say that hat was groovy.

Just had to take it off for the earphone lead and the toilet.

And my ears were so cold.

I was so happy to have my hat back, firmly on my head.

Parents - I tell you.
Two courses of antibiotics between them this winter already.
Stay indoors, I preach, but no, they won't listen.

But I say, keep your ears and your head warm, and you can't go wrong.

Suck it up
I have gotten an excellent tan laying on a lawn chair on the ice at 30 degree F
Just dont let a breeze catch you there
Watch the little flags positioned every 20 feet and if they move , run.....

Not too long ago an old-timer told me he saw Stalin in his youth.

Now I see Stalin had 14 doubles.

Should you leave that man with his vision?
Or raise this?

Nowadays we can figure this out:

Would the real Josef Stalin please stand up
Please stand up
Would the real Stalin
Please stand up
...

And to think, there's probably guys who have to double as ... any number of dictators.

Our generation wasn't given much to work with - they're all hideous!
Not an Evita among them.

I mean if beauty is supposed to be an effect of all those blood-soaked Reptilian rituals - it obviously doesn't always work.

Merkel for example, nope still looks dreadful, go in for seconds.

Let me see?
Nope, still appalling.

Sorry sister, whatever you try, you just got unlucky genes.

I wish time stayed the same, where I wasn't so offensive,
And a glass of wine wasn't so expensive.

Only two months left where your ttt -teeth are constantly chattering.
And your hands are always shaking.

A heater - what's that?

Get a bottle of vodka.

Why everybody wants to migrate to Europe?

We should be going to to the equator, where it's nice.

Common in, when winter hits, and there's simply not enough accommodation, you're all going to literally freeze to death.

Not my wish, just a realistic warning.

Bhajan Mama:

Nightmares above created by Geo-politics.

Not my wish.

I hope the arms of great Mother can carry us all.

Naysayers will claim, that is not winter - this is winter.

Wow, so many different colors!
Let's migrate.
Oh, but I can't.

That's not winter. That's Halloween. Or April Fool's day.

This is winter...





That said I wouldn't want your summers. "Help me. I'm meltingggggggggggggg."

Heres the thing...

Temperature is relative to what ones body is used to, and even what ones genetics are programmed for. For example, I tend to get hot at around eighteen degrees C. I burn, through cloud, in the height of summer here in Blighty. But the fellow I met in the street on Saturday (who had some rather smashing dreadlocks, by the way), was cold even at the peak of the days heat, which reached about twenty six degrees. He had on a hooded sweater and thick trousers.

His body is used to greater temperatures than mine, and MUCH greater than even the hottest temperatures that we get here in England. I, however, would shrivel and die in the climate to which his body is most accustomed.

Sounds like my type of environment. Here winters are -20 and summers over 30. It was 33 yesterday. That's pretty extreme.

a reply to: intrepid

Thats a big swing.

Winter here on the North shore of the Thames Estuary has dropped down as low as -17.5 including windchill, and summers have reached up around the 36 mark at times I believe. I loathe it. If it got as low as -17 every year, and only as warm as + 18-20, I would be ok with summer. As it is, summer is a hateful bugger of a thing to live through for me. Any time I am sweating, but not either getting paid or getting laid, is a bad time. See, thats why winter is better. If you are sweating, it means you are working, not just sitting there, begging passing people to kill you, or carry you to the nearest chest freezer so that you can climb in and terminate yourself by frozen suffocation!

Iam at the top of Norway.
-30c and meters of snow is common.
Winter lasts from October to May, sometimes we have snow in june.
I can see snow if I look out my window right now.


I laugh at your puny winters.
