Or he could move here where it was 67¡F and had a cloudless blue sky. I
rode the bike to work today, as I did yesterday. Georgia in the winter
(what many people would call spring or fall) is so wonderful...

** Is that plus or minus Tornados? And I'll bet in the summer it gets
*real* hot. See, the nice thing about life above the 49th Parallel (I
think that's the right one... though that could be the northern one...)
is that the summers are (except for 3-4 weeks at the hottest) quite
bearable. Fall and Spring are awesome seasons. We don't get many floods,
we get few earth tremors (Canadian Shield and all) and we don't get too
many Tornados, and pretty much zero in the realm of Typhoons, Tropical
Storms, and Hurricanes. All in all, we shouldn't complain about a wee
bit of snow. I'll cut Adrian some slack... he has a little more
difficulty with big piles of snow than most of us... but mostly Canada
is just about the best place to live.... (although the Aussie claim of
not owning a greatcoat or any sort of significant jacket certainly does
make one think twice on a Cold freezin-ass Ontario evening...).

You go ride your bike and enjoy your 67 F. When it hits 107 in the
summer, then we'll talk about how nice it is up here in the land of the
Mukluk and the Igloo.... ;)
