There are a lot of examples of how cold it is: colder than the witches body part, colder’n a well digger’s ***, cold enough to freeze the balls off a brass monkey, kinda nipply out there…and all of it is true. Walking home today from a early afternoon appointment, at one point I hailed a cab… it was just too blustery and cold for walking. There is only one article of clothing that truly protects against this kind of cold: a fur coat. PETA is right, but if you buy one and keep it for 30 years, and especially one made out of pelts from animals that committed suicide in the wild, it’s ok.
