| Thats funny! I saw something similar for New Englanders too! I was laughing so hard bc it was sooo me! "OH wow.. its 40 in january... its a flipflop day!" Yesterday it was 61, windy and raining and I was sweeping my patio in a tanktop! Thinking how nice it was that all the snow melted on it and I should put out my patio chairs now!" HAHAHAHA

| My friend, who was born and grew up in Norway, sent that to me this morning. To him, Michiganders are "winter wimps". I laughed when I read it because last week I was driving around town with the window down in the car thinking what a beautiful spring day we were having. It was in the 40's.
