    It's been 80+ here in the NW boonies of Florida. It's usually warmer farther south. Pinebox is probably sweating. Sure be glad when spring gets here and it warms up.

    If I ran that prison I'd dress that guy in shorts and tank top and send him out on road clean up duty. :evilsmile:
    Or just refuse his readmittance till spring.

    He's glad you don't run it, I'm sure!:evilsmile:

    -29C windchill is long john, wool socks, insulated boots and hooded goose feather parka weather. Betcha he's enjoying the ribbing he's getting from the guards, too!:biglaugh:

    Durn, it went from a cool 60 degrees down to 50 and windy mid afternoon. I think that's illegal for NW Florida.

    Then today would be a good day for me to call my brother and sister in Jacksonville, Fl and inquire about their weather? Nah, I'll wait until Sunday, when we're supposed to be 90............

    Think of the human rites of the poor, poor, criminal that your tax payer dollars are forced to spend making sure his health and well being are taken care of to the fullest extent of the law no matter what the cost. He has rites so when he gets out he could possibly do more harsh crimes......

    Meanwhile honest poor people are struggling.....:slap::slap::slap:

    You must be driving a white or grey car with the lights off like many do in snow storms. Turn your lights on!
    It was even so cold here the bird bath was frozen solid. 58 now and sunny.
