Well the weather here in Wisconsin is as nuts as everywhere else. It is Feb. and I have a lake in my back yard that needs to be charted and channel markers put in. 42 degrees today. I am sure glad I don't own a snowmobile. I will be taking my umbrella to work today. WHAT?????<br /><br />Well the heat bill should be low and the streets are clear and easy to drive without the usual ice ruts that are created in Dec and stick around until usually March-April. I can't make head or tails over this weather. I guess I like it as I don't need to wear a polar jacket but about a week a year. <br /><br />The bad news is I am beginning to pine for my boat. She is in the shed and I usually don't take her out until about the first week in May. Well I know this is just mother natures way of torturing me and I still have another two months of pain to endure. Well I got to put on my speedo and get to work. (there is an image sure to ruin your day)

If it gets warm, the utilities raise the rates to cover their losses.

Pointer, I got that same thing going on here in IL. The "lake" that is starting to form in my backyard really has me wnating to use my boat. And if the water keeps rising, i am going to bolt the outdrive on the boat, unhook the bow strap, and just float it off the trailer!

I think a speedo is a pair of those spandex panties one wears to ride a bike? ;) :D :confused:

Speedo's are really skimpy swimsuits. They leave nothing to the imagination. :eek:

It was 50 something here this weekend. I took my kids for a day trip to Red Wing. When was the last time someone had bug splatter on their windshield in February in Minnesota?? Weird, very weird..
