I have my AC cranked so cold that my nipples could score glass.

The Government of Canada?

The puppet government of Canada. Surely you don't believe that our elected boot lickers are immune to their masters whip. Big Money Rules All Without Exception

You live in Regina, just be happy your city rhymes with the most inviting part of a womens anatomy.

Hey McCannonfodder that regina joke is in the order of several centuries old by now. I guess you haven,t gotten the memo.

I wasn't aware that carbon constraining technologies were leading the Canadian economy...and pulling strings with our government to boot...I had an idea that banks and resource extraction such as oil, gas, and minerals were the leaders in our economy.

He might be full of hot air but I doubt if he has that much coverage.

On a side note, I've never seen so many geese flocking northward as I have today....

Here too, lone wolf - every day I see and hear the flocks taking off - and they haven't even been here that long - maybe they know something we don't???? :lol:

As for hotter weather, I will welcome it with a glad heart. These last two months have been among the coldest in BC in years - I still have to heat the house, for pete's sake. This last week in the Interior it has been nothing but rain, rain, rain and cloudy skies - I am sick of it already - though must admit it is keeping the fire season here at bay.

Good! 'Cuz today is June 4th, & it's just after 10am, & it's +5c outside at this point....
but the wind is low (glass 1/2 full).

I haven't worn a touque (with matching neck-gator) for 93 consecutive hours now.
That's a sure sign of summer I'd say. Bring it on!!!

Just spent the last 20 minutes try'n to get the bulk of the dried mud off my wetskins rainsuit,
so I can pack it (with the touque & gator & gloves) for the next weeks travels.
