    Those aren't real temperatures. Liar.

    What’s the coldest you’ve ever peed outside?

    Numerous times at -35 or so...I used to live in a house (decades ago when the winters were much, much colder) that housed an official U. S. Weather Bureau substation...temps became something of a fixation.

    Peeing poses no problem, but don't even think of getting your tongue on something metal, or it'll stick to it like gorilla glue.

    I generally do not bring a thermometer. So the only times I know what the temperature is are when I pee outside the bank.

    I found during my Vermont stint that the nose hairs froze at about -2. Maybe it's a question of humidity or something.

    If I stepped outside and breathed in through my nose and they didn't freeze, I knew it was (comparatively) warm.

    It's getting down to the 40s tonight; I'm excited. 40s and 50s is my perfect open window sleeping weather. The rest of my household disagrees.

    Nope. Not yet. It is always quite variable. We got a ton of rain last week. And lots of wind today. Might screw up the leaves.

    Vandy pulled the same crap today that Duke did last week. The college football aspect of my life stinks. Maybe I should work on a PhD somewhere...

    I passively track Duke football and watch a ton of good teams. Usually I pick one of them to kind of follow. I have always done this. Very seldom the same team every year. Now my daughter is at Alabama, so it's them. Before that I never pulled for them. But this is sooooooooo much healthier. I live and die with Duke basketball, my brother's high school team and Braves baseball (definitely 3rd fiddle but significant). College and NFL football are a smidge problematic for me anyway, so I sort of enjoy just watching as a passive fan. Seems healthy.

    Pro-Dodgers. I'm anti-Astros. They cheated. Lukewarm to cold on the Sox. Enjoyed going to games in '07-'09 whe I lived there, but see my comment about Astros. They hired a cheater.

    I don't think that Duke is the kind of place that should push folks out in the middle of the season. That seems like an emotional reaction and I don't support that. Immediate termination should be reserved for Troublemakers.
