They are extremely hardy who love winter in these climates. People of the MASTER Races, I'm sure. These are the ones I want to address today: ALL HAIL TO YOU WINTER LOVERS!When Hitler tried to breed a vigorous race of superfolk, he had people like you in mind. Some of you go out to shovel the latest snowfall off your driveways, and whistle while you work. You strap various things on the bare feet you were born with, and then you rush down hill or throw yourself across acres of ice, or stomp across miles of tundra, or perform some other daring adventure, all the time shivering and trying to get all the layers off when you have to pee.
Lots of you are right now making your lusty ways to British Columbia to prove that you can do it faster, tolerate it longer, abide it more intensely, perform it more adroitly, or execute it more beautifully. Well, bravo to you.
I will be at home with a cup of tea or a bottle of Smithwicks in my hand, with the blanket tucked in around me, the cat purring warmly on my lap, and watching your breath steam from your frozen blue lips. I will be every minute admiring the glory of your heroic gestures!

Been an easy Winter , especially for those folks who spent January in sunny, hot Florida.
Lots more sunny days in store and
warmer temperatures ( or tempachus as John McMurray on channel 12 would say ) ahead.
Nobody "WINS" the Olympics, but you will never know that if you watch the American TV coverage.
Better to tune in Canadian coverage if you can -- we still get the Windsor station in Genesee county -- not as many self - serving features, and lots more coverage of ALL the athletes in the events.
And give the Devil his due.
Arguably Hitler did bad better than anyone else in history.
Wonder why you never find someone named Hitler these days ???
I didn't mean to say a complimentary thing about Hitler.
John, I wish the coverage was more as you describe it, and not so one-sided. For example, more like the World Cup coverage where the US is in only a few games.
You don't find anyone naming their kids Adolf either.
We are looking forward to the Winter Olympics here - especially the little kids now that they have had a taste of real winter and experienced skiing, skating, hockey, cold, snow, wind, misery.... We've forked out $50 to get live broadcast from four venues (4 channels). Money well spent to avoid the frustration and agony of the free-to-air coverage here. Sadly, we will miss out on the amazing story of some Australian, who against all odds, supposedly has a real chance to win a medal, when in reality he/she has no chance of finishing higher than 37th. However, we actually will see the gold medal performance, but alas never know all about the Australian's third grade teacher. Woo hoo!
Maybe it wont snow. Maybe they call it all off?
