Of course, it is the middle of summer in Antarctica right now. For a proper comparison, you should find the stats from 6 months ago for Antarctica.

Oh sure, throw logic in! Just because they've currently got 20 hours of sunshine a day, they'll be warmer than us?
Looking back at

mcpenguin's LJ I found one day in July where it was a little colder than us... -85° F.
But still, it's frickin' Antarctica and it's warmer than us!!! This amuses me muchly.

LOL! Not too much of a suprise since my sources there tell me that the sun barely sets. Still amuses me though.

oh, that is freaking cold. it was 72 F when I was driving home tonight. NICE!

I am so laughing at how it is warmer in Antartica than it is there now, I do not care about daylight hours, Antarctica should always be colder. For real.

I am so looking forward to seeing you next week. Whee! LJ hookups are awesome. *hugs*

One last time, I have a porketta for you. If you don't want it I have others interested.

Eek! I'm sorry! I thought I already replied. Yup, we're very interested. And I'm thinking that it would also be the perfect food for a game night in the near future.
Let me know when/where you want to do the porketta/money exchange. :)

Speaking of game days, you and Rick interested in a porketta potluck/salad bowl extravaganza at the wick's this Sunday? I'll be cooking one of my porkettas of course.
