Daddy's Home by Tony Rubino and Gary Markstein for February 12, 2021

I bet Calvin had the similar question like that when his father asks him to do that task.

Tony’s QOTD: Whats the temp by you?

Her name is Sally. Why do you ask?

BTW, Tony. RE: Today’s Avant Gauche comic on facebook. Is it true that a beaver will only charge if you use redwood?

It’s finely warming up here. It’s a balmy -24C right now.

I never knew they were Canadian. Even in Wisconsin, I never saw a winter quite like that.

It gives you a season without snakes or mosquitoes. I’m hoping this extreme cold snap knocks out my oak itch mites.

-10 °C down to -15 °C until noon, -5 °C down to -8 °C until 6 pm (-20 resp. -11 in some neighborhoods).

Cozy -5 °C on our western balcony/loggia at the moment.

In Florida, we have been known to say this during hurricane season.

Working too hard, shovel a ramp up, then a ramp back down to his car. My motto is, “Spring will be here soon enough. Enjoy the snow while I can.”

He changes his name to Dug during winter

13F

Really overcast, so only 16F. It’ll get cold again after the snows done.

For us it’s a chilly 37F. It’s not that cold for most of you Yankees, but for us that is bitter cold and we are expecting temperatures in the mid teens by Tuesday morning. That’s rough in an area the the temperature rarely approaches freezing.

65* here at sunrise but it’ll get warm soon. 83* for the high, 98% humidity. Don’t move to Florida unless you want to complain about the heat and humidity 8 months a year.

Because you’re a stereotypical North American paterfamilias: stupid, bumbling, hen-pecked, and spineless? Just a guess, you understand.

My 37th year of not lifting a snow shovel, ice scraper, or looking for a lost glove. 71 here today.

I know the answer when I ask it: because my wife won’t let me say to hell with it and move to New Zealand.

The better question today is, Why, Why, Why, am I using a stupid shovel instead of a snow blower?……

-3º C today in beautiful British Columbia. Cloudy and precipitation predicted for overnight. A good day for telemedicine.

I love to see the snow, as long as I’m not there.

73 F and partly cloudy here on Florida’s sunny west coast today.

Ours is not to question why, it’s to shovel til the day we die.

Because the average house price in Southern California is $700,000.
