How will you shock your far off readers when it is -40 C in the sun and 90 KPH cross winds whip through the downtown core, destroying sub-compact cars and morale?
There will be a day in early March when there will be no daylight and you will call into work sick and no one will be there to answer your call. The pipes on St. Laurent Street will all burst in sequence turning the plateau into some sort of crystalline theme park until June.
You will forego washing your hair unless you have time for it to be thouroughly dry before going out.
You will want to take a leak on your way home from the club but you are too afraid to expose any delicate flesh for fear of frost bite. Car tires will implode from the difference in air pressure. But that day is not yet upon us.
For now; get out there and get your Christmas lights up! And be jolly about it!

Lol...I love how nice -14 feels after the -40 weather.
Good lord - you are dead right - and how eloquently you describe the hell that awaits us.
I don't know how I'm going to describe it, but I promise I'll try not to plagerise you!
Cheers for the link, by the way, and the Sugarcubes reminder - loved them - they definitely need revisiting....
