Pray for me that I won't get frostbite!

And, please don't give me the smoking/cancer bullshit - I've had cancer and I've already beat that devil.

I'll report back in - the temp. gauge says it's minus 5 right now.

10. I'm a lifelong addict....

"Hello Johnny"

...i've never met a drug as addictive as nicotine.
And I've dated Lady "H", Mary Jane, and Sister Cocaine.

The legal drug is the only one I could never walk away from.

The only advice I can pass on is that: "It's not going be easier next year".

5. I feel for ya, man!
Edited on Fri Dec-24-04 02:31 AM by Hardhead
I'm out there, too. The snowstorm ripped my smoking canopy all to shreds, and I'm out there in the elements now. Nothing like an arctic storm to expose your tobacco addiction for all the world to see. "Yes, I'm a junkie! I'm standing out here in two inches of fresh snow and it's fifteen degrees! And the wind is howling! And I don't care! I gotta have my puff!"

Smoke, smoke, smoke that cigarette
Tell Saint Peter at the Golden Gates
You just hate to make him wait
But ya gotta have another cigarette!


Minus five? C'mon, man up! You can take it for a hit!

6. well it's about 20 degrees here in Alabama
That's like -5 most places. I think I need to check my insulation. It's cold as hell (?) in here.

7. Woo hoo!
I was bundled up enough and it was tolerable.

Now - Three's Company is on TVLand! As Matthew Perry/Chandler Bing so succinctly put it: "this is the episode where there was some sort of mis-understanding!"

11. why has tvland/nickatnite turned so sucky
Seems they show nothing lately but Three's Company and Fresh Prince. They used to show a wide variety of good shows.

12. Considering it's 2 am in the central time zone
I think the options on Nick/etc. are Fresh Prince, Roseanne, Cosby, Three's Company, and Cheers.

8. Wouldn't it be ironic for a smoker to die of pnuenomia
From smoking on the deck?

But the curtains look great!

13. Obviously,
You've never been married to someone who doesnt clean the curtain
or even know what a paint brush looks like.
I get both jobs in a 2400 sq. foot home.

14. - 5? Where the hell are you, anyway?!

In Connecticut, it's currently 15 degrees. Seems toasty warm in comparison to what you' have!
