For the slow amongst you, that means we're at the center. You know, all average like.We get a bit hot when it's around 110 on concrete, and we get a bit chilly when it drops below half our body temperature, and that's, well, that's how it should be.This yankee girl, now, she complains as soon as it lights up to about 80 - that's still cool enough to lose body heat, girl!And in the winter? It'll be freezin' cold, hovering a hair's breadth over the freezing point of water, which I might remind you is most of our god-given body, and she's wearing what, a t-shirt and some shorts?That's unnatural.</blockquote>
