NorthernVike 2,082 Posted January 2, 2022 Started the year off with -36 degrees out and -58 windchill. Blower resister went out on my wifes vehicle, my diesel geld up so my vehicle is down. On top of that, lost water preasure in my house. Hoping it's the preasure tank and not a frozen line from the well. Happy focking new year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Isn't it common practice to keep some water flowing through the lines when it gets that focking cold? But that type of cold is stupid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm in south-central Minnesota & the coldest morning I remember is sometime back in the early 90s. When I arrived at work Sunday at 5:45 AM, It was 22° below zero with a brisk wind out of the northwest. First thing I said to my coworkers when I sat down in the cafeteria was "why the !@#$ did anyone settle here" lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MTSkiBum 1,620 Posted January 5, 2022 53 minutes ago, Mike Isles said: No ranch on pizza please. I eat all sorts of pizza today I had spicy marinara sauce, cheap ground mozzarella, blue cheese, bacon, green peppers, roasted corn and i dipped it in buffalo sauce. Some days i eat a traditional new york pizza with the dobs of buffalo mozzarella, roasted garlic, and pepperoni. And some days i eat a hawaiian pizza dipped in ranch. I could list out the number of ingredients I use on pizza, but it is practically all of them in different combinations. Last week it was pepperoni, sausage, and mushroom. Earlier in the week I had a pizza with pepperoni, artichoke, green peppers, onion, and tomatoes. You do not always eat the same sandwich, it is important to not always eat the same pizza, even if that pizza is occasionally dipped in ranch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Last year we had temperatures that brought houston to its knees and made national news. We lost power for 2 days and during the nighttime it was 20 degrees for 2 nights in a row!!!!! It is practically the same and I feel your pain brother Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike Isles 583 Posted January 5, 2022 Maybe all these years I am a dumbass. Are we talking about dipping the crust in a dipping sauce and not the actual pizza ? If so don’t actually do it either but like to dip crust in left over oil and add salt. Almost like a pretzel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
