Monday, February 5, 2007 - Still Chillin' Here

I guess the whole country is cold together, right?

I've been thinking about a thing from a longtime friend of ours... we'll call him Bob. Bob hates winter. Bob calls the fall months the Brrr months, you know, Septembrrr, Octobrrrr, Novembrrrrr, Decembrrrrrr, then come the long, cold months of Jan-you-air-ee and Feb-rue-air-ee (he says their names r-e-a-l slow), then things begin to speed up a bit with Marrrch and April, then the delightfully short names of May and June, but as you pass the summer solstice, things begin to slow down again, Ju-ly and Aug-ust...  Well, it seems like this is Feb-brrr-rue-brrr-air-brrr-ee...

And how can "chill out" mean "to calm down or relax"? There is nothing calming or relaxing about shivering.
