Too Cold for FPU

We had to postpone our FPU class last night due to the extremely cold temperatures and wind chills. It was only about 40-45 below with wind chills, so I don't know what the big deal was - hey, we're Minnesotans, right? It's supposed to be unbearably frigid this time of year! (I guess Wisconsin transplants/Cheesehead/Packer fans are just more hearty!)

I was watching the news this morning and they had some reporter in Chicago complaining because it was Zero degrees this morning. Zero! That's shorts weather, right?

In all seriousness, I was glad to be inside last night and glad others didn't have to be out in this weather. So, in the spirit of financial planning I thought I'd share the Dilbert comic from this morning. Not sure if I can legally show the graphic on my blog, so here's the link. Enjoy!

15 to 20 below!

That was the temperature here in Pine City last night and early this morning - somewhere around -15 to -20 degrees! Now, I love Minnesota and Pine City, but it's mornings like this that make me ask, "I live in Minnesota why?"

Nevertheless, I am glad for a hot cup of coffee and a fireplace on cold mornings like this, as well as the fact that I don't have to go anywhere too early today! I can even catch up on a blog post!

(And to my friends and family who live in the south - I don't want to hear about it!)
