#1 Dead is dead, but freezing to death really isn't pleasant.

Or so I'm told ...

#2 Lotp that should provoke some interesting discussion. I always thought pneumonia was the way to go. You just fall asleep. The old man's friend. The weather here is very nice. We just had a little snow but its melting already.

#3 Yeah, I thought hypothermia was THE way to check out. You get groggy, your body gives up trying to maintain a constant temperature so you don't feel cold anymore, and you just drift off to sleep. The big sleep. Way better than drowning, if you ask me.

#4 Sarajevo was at about 15F a few minutes ago and more snow was expected.

#5 We went skiing this weekend and last night wasn't exactly balmy. -27°C we were told, not factoring in the wind chill.

The older folks call this phenomenom "winter".

#8 @bigjim-CA
Actually true. A bottle of whiskey, passing out in the cold and you never wake up again.

I will stick to a good glass of whiskey indoors though.

#11 The local betting pool thus far says the NY GIANTS to take the Superbowl.

#12 Well the Patriots have the only German player in the NFL, so I may be a bit biased. Both are great teams and deserve to win.

#14 It's always nice to have a connection, European Conservative. the Giants won, but the noise in the room suggests it was a good game. ;-)
