      - Let me clarify. I can always put more clothes on, I can only take so much off before there is nothing left. -- nm - Redmond May 20, 19:57 16
        
        thats true, but you know it can get so cold no amount of clothes will help you right? - Danedukenuuk May 20, 19:59 15
        
        -45 isn't *fun*, but you get by. -- nm - Reagen May 20, 20:02 7
        
        F or C? -- nm - Danedukenuuk May 20, 20:03 6
        
        at some point you're just going to have to acknowledge the fact that you're not the only person who's dealt with extreme cold. -- nm - Reagen May 20, 20:06 1
        
        thanks for thoose insightfull words - Danedukenuuk May 20, 20:09
        
        Can we simplify this? I don't want to sleep naked in a freezer, or get set on fire. Barring those, I prefer the cold. -- nm - TFox May 20, 20:04 1
        
        heh. -- nm - kelly May 20, 20:06
        
        at that point it doesn't matter. -- nm - Beryllium May 20, 20:03 1
        
        it's too cold for anything - Danedukenuuk May 20, 20:06
        
        Given the choice of extremes I cannot handle heat. I feel like I am cooking inside my body. -- nm - Redmond May 20, 20:02 2
        
        I hate it when I swelter. I can't think. -- nm - Beryllium May 20, 20:03 1
        
        put me in serious sun for any significant time, and I might actually die. -- nm - loosilu May 20, 20:04
        
        are we holding the next gathering on Mars? -- nm - loosilu May 20, 20:01 1
        
        -50 is not an uncommon thing -- nm - Danedukenuuk May 20, 20:03
        
        Luckily, I live in non-Alaskan America, where that is not an issue. -- nm - TFox May 20, 20:01
        
        That depends on what you call "clothes" (See: NASA space suits) -- nm - Beryllium May 20, 20:00
      - I've been really cold, and it sure as hell beats really hot. -- nm - loosilu May 20, 19:56 15
        
        can you take any cold? -- nm - Danedukenuuk May 20, 19:57 14
        
        if I'm dressed for it. -- nm - loosilu May 20, 19:58 13
        
        when breathing hurts, the nose feels like glass and your eyes are frozen closed we can talk again :) - Danedukenuuk May 20, 20:02 12
        
        Been there. Still beats hot. -- nm - loosilu May 20, 20:02 11
        
        well then you're a perfect candidate for a couple of winters in the arctic -- nm - Danedukenuuk May 20, 20:04 10
        
        Okay, but pack your bags for the Sahara since you seem to rather go there. -- nm - Redmond May 20, 20:06 6
        
        no i just oppsed the idear it can't get cold enogh.... - Danedukenuuk May 20, 20:07 5
        
        My original post was about a choice between the two. You took an example I used extremely literal. - Redmond May 20, 20:10 4
        
        He just wanted to play "cold chauvanism". -- nm - Reagen May 20, 20:14 1
        
        yes yes YES baby you got it it's amazing how much in tuch with me you are...i'm a bit scared too but truly amazed -- nm - Danedukenuuk May 20, 20:17
        
        AFAIK it can be freezing in the sahara too (at night) -- nm - Danedukenuuk May 20, 20:14 1
        
        I would be happy at night then. -- nm - Redmond May 20, 20:16
        
        Nunavut sounds fun. I'd like to visit Rankin Inlet ... -- nm - Beryllium May 20, 20:05 2
        
        it's great at times i'm sure especially the good days were you are outside in the sun with a t-shirt on at minus 20 -- nm - Danedukenuuk May 20, 20:11
        
        (my fiancee's sister just got back from 2 years in rankin inlet) -- nm - Beryllium May 20, 20:06
      - ... or, maybe they're Canadian -- nm - Beryllium May 20, 19:56 5
        
        a canadian who say's he can take any cold has not been in the cold -- nm - Danedukenuuk May 20, 19:57 4
        
        I grew up in the prairies. We have people here from *Winnipeg*. Go do anatomically impossible things to yourself. -- nm - Reagen May 20, 20:01 1
        
        The coldest I've been in that I can remember is about -19C in edmonton ... -- nm - Beryllium May 20, 20:02
        
        See what redmond said about layers. And, pursuant to that, shaddup :) -- nm - Beryllium May 20, 19:58
        
        no one is saying they can do it naked. -- nm - loosilu May 20, 19:58
- If you can't stand the heat.... - ty97 May 20, 19:46
- I was just down in New Orleans for a couple days and I think it would be a fun place for an alternative TT gathering -- nm - secretslacker May 20, 19:43 26
  - Why do you hate me??? -- nm - Jacque Dawsen May 20, 19:48
  - I would love a Bahamas or South Florida trip. I want a tropical beach. I think this is the last year I'm going to go to Vegas. - Redmond May 20, 19:46 21
    - You notice Amy and I have went twice. - Spawn May 20, 20:11
    - way to guarantee I won't be there! -- nm - loosilu May 20, 19:47 19
      - They have beach umbrellas -- nm - ty97 May 20, 19:48 18
        
        Until someone sells a beach burqa, I ain't going. -- nm - loosilu May 20, 19:48 17
        
        Because you have been to so many Vegas trips. You don't go ANYWAY! -- nm - Redmond May 20, 19:49 14
        
        You held one on my 40th birthday, and another one while I was on another continent. -- nm - loosilu May 20, 19:52 13
        
        Don't make me Tron your many posts stating you would never go to Vegas. -- nm - Redmond May 20, 19:53 12
        
        exaggerate much? I said it wasn't really my thing. I've thought about it. -- nm - loosilu May 20, 19:54 11
        
        vegas just isn't the right destination for some people. - Beryllium May 20, 19:55 10
        
        I would love to do a Calgary trip! Love it there -- nm - Redmond May 20, 19:56 8
        
        Calgary rates as a "meh" for me, but I'd rather go there than Edmonton. :) -- nm - Beryllium May 20, 19:56 7
        
        Calgary itself is not that remarkable (though: multiple casinos) - Reagen May 20, 20:04
        
        How far is Banff from Calgary? Lake Louise? -- nm - Redmond May 20, 19:58 5
        
        Banff is not very far from calgary ... -- nm - Beryllium May 20, 19:59 4
        
        google says 1 hour 22 minutes -- nm - Beryllium May 20, 19:59 3
        
        That's about right. Depends on the time of year. -- nm - Reagen May 20, 20:03 2
        
        I love that area. I have only been once when I was about 7 and the images of Lake Louise Lodge, Banff, are fixed in my memory. - Redmond May 20, 20:04 1
        
        Louise is about another 45 minutes. -- nm - Reagen May 20, 20:05

  - mardigraSTravaganza? -- nm - Beryllium May 20, 19:45 2
    - Yeah, don't know if I'd want to be down there during Mardi Gras... this week was nice cause it wasn't too crazy. Maybe it's worse on the weekend -- nm - secretslacker May 20, 19:46 1
      - Yeah, crowds aren't my bag. Nor is sweltering heat and humidity - but I wouldn't mind visiting NOLA, even if I did have to suck it up. -- nm - Beryllium May 20, 19:47
- Oh, it was ridiculously hot that weekend. I totally know it was. - kelly May 20, 19:42 6
  - We don't get that hot anytime during the Summer. When it gets in the 90s here a couple days a year (some years we don't break 90) - Redmond May 20, 19:44 5
    - in Rwanda it hit 85 and I got a heat rash all over my neck and chest. - loosilu May 20, 19:44 4
      - If this is you trying to flirt with me it's not working. Heat rash isn't sexy. - Redmond May 20, 19:47 3
        
        OH, I see. I became breathless and flushed, is that better? -- nm - loosilu May 20, 19:48 2
        
        Does it require lotion? Because I can do that. -- nm - Redmond SI May 20, 19:48 1
        
        GOD NO! ice cubes on the skin help a lot, and a fan. -- nm - loosilu May 20, 19:49
Re: Vegas Death March '04... y'all were following Max, not me. Get it straight. -- nm - secretslacker May 20, 19:35 2

  - I think Carrottop put it best... - secretslacker May 20, 19:42

    - Do I have to pay to put my gyro in your pita? -- nm - Redmond May 20, 19:54
    - Sometimes I just don't get these joke nicks. - kelly May 20, 19:51
    - ah crap... -- nm - Stephen May 20, 19:50

        thanks, I misplaced my Remlik decoder ring. -- nm - loosilu May 20, 19:44

If you want to avoid Idol spoilers, stay away from Facebook. -- nm - nubby May 20, 19:16 9
- Yup, and Twitter. -- nm - secretslacker May 20, 19:47 1
  - And google and yahoo, and MSN, and CNN, and Everyplace that has a power supply. Unless you're Amish you probably are going to get spoiled -- nm - Redmond May 20, 19:49
- Honestly networks are going to have to do something different with the new technology like Twitter and Facebook popularity. - Redmond May 20, 19:37 2
  - how does that stop spoilage? -- nm - loosilu May 20, 19:39 1
    - Well I could be watching the East Coast feed the same time you guys are watching it. Instead of having to wait for our feed. -- nm - Redmond May 20, 19:41
