From wherever you look at it:


The world is a warm place.

Except when it's cold.

  1. Even when it's cold it's warm relative to places even colder, so any place is always warm and cold at the same time (unless at Absolute Zero). But I am always a pedant.

  2. It would have to be much colder before the Inuit would say, "Ikkiertuk!" (My feet are cold)

  3. The world is a place of balance and opposites ;-)

  4. When you tread on snow, does it make a sort of squidgy, squeaking sound? I seem to remember it does but I'm not sure if it's just my imagination. :)

  5. Oh, and I liked the Japanese palindrome link too.

  6. If pedantry had not existed you would have invented it, my dear Don, wouldn't you? :)

    Well, Claude, I am no Innuit. My feet spoke: Fucking cold, Sean.

    And the winter has only begun, Jams.

    CherryPie,
    now, that's a statement we could philosophise about during the season of commerce.

    Ashley,
    squidgy and squeaking it sounds around 0°C.
    Creaky and crunchy it sounds the colder it gets. And the drier the air. And that's the sound my ears prefer. :)
