Now, is that calling you out enough to get a free trip to WI? ;)

You know why..I am a filthy republican capitalist who cares nothing about anything but me!

And yes, that meets the threshold.

I don't remember the schools ever closing 30 years ago. And if they did, it was a blizzard going on.

I'm sure it's a 'lawyer thing' ... you guys better shut down or a kid will get hurt and we'll be sued etc...

Or perhaps it's a parental thing, since these days parents all seem to chauffeur their kids to and from school, something that almost never happened back in the 60's and 70's. Back then you walked, cold or not. In extreme cold you wore mitts instead of gloves, long underwear underneath your hand-me-down pants, an extra sweater under your winter coat, and a long scarf your mom wrapped around your head and face like 7 times. And of course the requisite tuque.

Maybe it's the parents who don't want to start up and have to sit in a cold car on these so-called 'extreme cold' mornings?

We bought a pellet stove this past fall and I have it cranked. Toasty 75 through the whole house. Had enough years of freezing my ass off, and we are immune from the LP shortage that has hit so many hard up here. Feel bad for those folks. Shit is selling for $7.00 a gallon. Two months ago or so it was $1.29.

I saw this coming when the Summer.....ahem......that's what the calendar said......was so damn cold in Wi. That shit just follows suit for the rest of the year.

Just found this weather map.

-37C overnight with the windchill here. More of the same for the next week at least, by the weather channel.

Good thing natural gas is still pretty cheap up here. Otherwise I'd be looking at pellet stoves and such.
