People in Miami all die... Canadians lick the flagpole.

It is interesting how US citizens seem to think the closer they get to the Canadian border, the less habitable it is, YET almost all Canadians enjoy life just fine clustered within 100 miles of that same border.

Californians shiver uncontrollably. People in Canada sunbathe.
OK, I admit, I was born in California... I'd be shivering uncontrollably too except I've apparently got the thermostat set waaaaaaaay too high, it's so programmed though... that thing is constantly flipping between its four settings. Remember, they did call me to say I was being good and helping with the conservation. This house has two gas furnaces + gas cooktop + gas water heater... and the gas bill is between $60-100/mo. That seems totally reasonable to me.
