How Cold Is It?

It is so cold . . .
we stopped eating with metal cutlery. Some people are walking around with spoons or forks stuck to their tongues!

It is so cold...
hitchhikers are holding up pictures of thumbs!

It is so cold...
chickens are rushing into Kentucky Fried Chicken and begging to use the pressure cooker!

It is so cold . . .
I dialed 911, and a recorded message said to phone back in the spring!

It is so cold . . .
the optometrist is giving away free ice scrapers with every new pair of eyeglasses!

It is so cold . . .
kids are using a new excuse to stay up late: "But Mom, my pajamas haven't thawed out yet!"

It is so cold . . .
pickpockets are sticking their hands in strangers' pockets just to keep them warm!

It is so cold . . .
the squirrels in the park are throwing themselves at an electric fence!

It is so cold . . .
Grandpa’s teeth are chattering - in the glass!

It is so cold . . .
Starbucks is serving coffee on a stick!

It is so cold . . .
the rats are bribing the alley cats for a snuggle.

It is so cold . . .
we had to chop up the piano for firewood - but we only got two chords.

It is so cold...
kids stopped worrying about acne. The new problem - goose pimples!

It is so cold . . .
when we milked the cows, we got ice cream! When we milked the brown cows - we got chocolate ice cream!

It is so cold . . .
words freeze in the air. If you want to hear what someone said, you have to grab a handful of sentences and take them in by the fire!

It is so cold . . .
Playboy magazine stopped publishing because no women would take their clothes off.

It is so cold . . .
we pulled everything out of the freezer and huddled inside it to warm up!




Yup, that's the current temp in J-town! It's so cold . . .
the best I could do for today's post are these corny jokes.

Don't you just LOVE people who leave a comment and say CUTE or WOW or THAT WAS FUNNY. Makes your day after putting so much work into your post doesn't it?

Well it's so cold HERE that the electricity went off. But we were prepared. We bought a generator this summer. . . . . forgot to buy a heater though.
