    The VW needed a jump this morning,

    Plastic on cables cracked,

    Going out of the parking ramp last night down the steepness, my car would barely roll,

    If I go to high while licking my lips, I can feel it freeze.

    GO!

    ...there's certainly no room for nut swinging around here.
    ...the 5MT feels like a slushbox.
    ...one's tires are harder than hockey pucks.

    It's so dang cold that you don't care about MPG, you just want it to heat up faster. ;)

    ... I swore I could feel snot freezeing INSIDE my nose last night, ha ha

    ... my dad's truck, my loaner for the past few months, likes to pretend that it has a welded rear differential when it gets cold. The thing bounces all over the place trying to do U'ies on the road, ha ha

    THIS is why we all live in Minnesota and know that we are bad a$$, ha ha

    If it's colder than -16f, you can get out there and do it yourself. Just be careful, and make sure you throw the water up and away from yourself. We don't want any nasty accidents.

    And it needs boiling water; hot water from the tap isn't hot enough.

    You go outside to pump gas and can feel your eyeballs freezing within 1 minute ...

    I donno, I'm staying inside.... what's going on out there makes anyone wish they were back in here - even though it's not more than 65 in the house :(

    I know, that's why I edited out the name on the quote.

    And in this weather, good for you. One (or two or three) less things to worry about.
