...Alaska and Canada have been suffering through some of the coldest temperatures on record during the last week...

I found it funny that the writer just chose to say "Canada," as opposed to "Northern Canada" or something along those lines, as our weather varies so much across the country. Lol. Here in Southern Ontario we didn't get much of a glimpse of winter til quite close to Christmas. I actually don't mind the cold or the snow and prefer it to warmer conditions. I like reading your stories about how you deal with the local weather.

Maybe you and the monkey should have some ice cream. :)
