If a Giant's pronouns are "fee, fi, fi, and fum", does that mean short people's pronouns are "oompa, loompa, and doopity-doo"?

Ok, here is just a balmy 28f with 20-30mph winds and sleet.

It's an F. Currently -12 and will drop further overnight. Windchill will be about the same. OMGWTF indeed! We're pet sitting 2 Chi's, 1 cat and our indoor/outdoor cat is in the house. Ain't nobody going outside until Saturday. Take from that what you will. :o

Yeah we're gettin' it good and proper over here. Dusting of snow overnight. Some here are huddling, some are puddling. How very festive! :?

I went home for Christmas one year when my family was living in Craig. We were bombing around on snow machines, and I mentioned how cold it was. My younger brother looked at me and said: “Cold? This ain’t cold. Forty below, now that’s cold.” It’s been a joke between us since. But, of the two of us, only one has been in that kind of cold.

Warm up is coming your way, right?

Warm Sat and Sun! Thank goodness. It's gettin' a little weird up in here. Wouldn't be the first time but not one of the pets is fit to go outside not even our indoor/outdoor cat so...Little Green Machine to the rescue. :)

Y'all stay warm. It's now about 12f according to the barn thermometer. Got the heater going for the animals, gonna go check on them every couple hours. Just brought in half a rick of wood for the fireplace. Probably won't need it as the power is still good.

Like, it doesn't get this cold down here though, Scoob...
