Desperate Times
Stranded in a hotel in an African war zone with no internet access for two weeks, I was forced to resort to desperate measures. Possessing only my passport and the clothes I stood up in; and the warning "You can catch it shaking hands with a vicar out there" ringing in my ears, I had to draw my own porn in order to preserve my sanity.
Alas, it all came out looking like Coronation Street's Audrey Roberts, but, as they say, any port in a storm.
What have you done in times of great desperation?

Give me a second to do the temp. conversions...
Well currently it is 10:32am, and it is -9C, which is pretty warm. At the height of the summer it will reach 3 or 4 degrees C. The coldest ambient temperature I have been here for is about -53 or so. Windchills have gotten to -59 or worse. You can (and I have) thrown a bucket of boiling water out of a door and watch it turn to snow and ice well before it hits the ground. You get climatized down here after a month or so, I routinely go out at -12 or so in just a t-shirt without a problem...for about 15 or 20 minutes.
