Two things

First, it's cold here. Some of you may say I'm a wimp, because it's surely not as cold where I am as where you are. I'm just saying, the competitive advantage of this gym-sock smelly highway spaghetti bowl barking dog police infested road rage driving city is the weather and having had to wear gloves and my winter coat four days in a row now, well, I think the weather is falling down on the job.

Second, see elk, see dog see dog in elk. Thanks to Rocky for the link.
