That sounds like my 5 favorite words: "your hair looks nice today". Every woman loves to hear that. I tell my girl that over the phone. I was tailgating at the browns game sunday and one girl was wearing a wool hat, your hair looks nice today, oh thanks sweetie! Its like magic.

In NC our thermometers do not go below 0, and if the temp ever does we would not know because everything will be closed long before that. What is crazy about MN is you guys still get to the 100's in the summer.

At 50 below you get enough brain freeze to think the Vikings maybe can win it next year!

Cold is a relative thing ya know....It takes a special person to live in Minnesota in the winter.

At 60, Californians shiver uncontrollably. People in Minnesota sunbathe.
At 50, Italian & English cars won't start. People in Minnesota drive with the windows down..
At 40, Georgians don coats, thermal underwear, gloves, wool hats. People in Minnesota throw on a flannel shirt.
At 35, New York landlords finally turn up the heat. People in Minnesota have the last cookout before it gets cold.
At 20, People in Miami all die. Minnesotans close their windows.
At 0, Californians fly away to Mexico. People in Minnesota get out their winter coats.
At 10 below zero, Hollywood disintegrates. The Girl Scouts in Minnesota are selling cookies door to door.
At 20 below, Washington DC runs out of hot air. (Ya think? Nah.). People in Minnesota let their dogs sleep indoors.
At 30 below, Santa Claus abandons the North Pole. Minnesotans get upset because they can't start the snowmobile.
At 40 below, ALL atomic motion stops. People in Minnesota start saying..."Cold enough for ya, eh?"
