#2 Late in January, 1976, in Chi-town, I woke up to 29 degrees below zero with a chill factor of 74 below zero. The train was two minutes late and I took a bus, instead of walking across town.

That was before global whatever made everybody soft and tender. Today in DC, it has not been so cold for TWO YEARS! Poor babies.

#5 I was kind of hoping global warming was real. Wouldn't have to spend the money to go to Florida.
