Especially in a car with no heat.

1. There was a windchill of -47 C here this morning.
The tires on my car were frozen flat on one side,so it was bump bump until they thawed out.

11. Actually, if I slam the door just right, my heater will turn on...

10. I'm sorry, you guys! This was 2 days ago in SF...



It was even warmer today, about 66. But think about it: we have fog and drippiness all summer!
