Jack, The funniest thing about canadians here, is watching their milk white skinned selves going to the beach in December while it is 60 degrees and windy.
Of course, UV rays ensure that they do not stay white long

Les,
Reminds me of when I was kid. I lived half way up a mountain & they use to plow our road with a gaint cat the size of our house (I was only 10 then & this might have biased my perspective). The reason it sticks in my mind is the school bus was always right behind the cat - in all the years we lived there I never missed a school day due to snow. I envied those city kids who got a day off every time the snow exceeded a foot.
Rad,
When I lived in Edmonton (the coldest place I ever lived), young males tended to go outside in shirts or sweaters as soon as the temperature hit about -5 C (abot 30 F). A heat wave in July was 75 F. Given this perspective 60 F is down right balmy. 
PS: I am home sick today so I thought I would visit you guys.

Of course you're confused. Texas and Cold are not synonymous 
Now Texas and Big are synonymous

The real culprit has fortunately stepped forward.
