I'm fairly sure that the folks in Sako who had (-51) this week find your posts about how cold it is at 110 degrees hotter amusing...

Yeah, but they're real tuff. Probably eating corn on the cob and grilling hotdogs in the backyard to show how tuff they are. Honestly, my old man is like that sometimes. When I tee off at 7:45am this time of year and say it was cold (45-50-ish) to start, he'll say sh*t like, "Well, we had a minus five." It's like, yeah, pops, you notice how I don't live there and was also talking about playing golf just now?
That's another thing: Does anyone else have relatives that turn into Mario Brothers when describing cold weather? "We had a minus eight. Tomorrow, we have a minus ten. Then, we get us some a pizza pies and a some gabbagool."
I get tired of the oh yeah well it's colder here type of braggadocio. So here's a few facts everyone should know that shouldn't have to be said but apparently do.
Weather and staying warm is all relative because it depends on the temperature, what you're wearing, and your level of activity. (Your own personal thermostat also comes into play. My oldest son hardly ever gets cold no matter what.) If you have 15 layers on and you're covered absolutely head to toe out shoveling your front walk or chucking hay to your cows you might not feel all that cold even though it's -20°. However 50° when you are sitting on your hiney doing nothing can feel pretty darn cold unless you're dressed properly. It was pretty chilly at Grizfest and my toes got very cold because I was only wearing tennis shoes. I'm a Montana girl through and through and yet I often get cold even living in Texas. Imagine that
