Unusual talentsB3tans! Can you hum with your tongue? (Your Ginger Fuhrer can and he once demonstrated this to a producer on Blockbusters on the hope of getting on TV) Maybe you can bend your thumb in a really horrid way that makes it look broken. (Your Ginger Fuhrer's other special talent) What can you do? Extra points if you fancy demonstrating this with the odd pic or youtube vid.

You live in Vancouverit may occasionally hit -25C, but it's a balmy -25C.
Come a little more inland, that's what people mean when they're talking about a true Canadian winter.
A very interesting read if you're curious about the effects of true freezing temperatures:

Personally, the coldest I've been outside in was around -48C, closer to -55C with the windchill though. Working at a full serve gas station without a weather guard sucks at that temperature.

I was born in Ontario,and I've lived in Fort Nelson. I know colder temperatures - I'm not saying that Vancouver is the coldest place there is, just that so far I can deal with the cold.
In Fort Nelson, truck drivers that need to shut off for any length of time set fires under the engines, so that they'll be able to start again. Trees explode when the moisture in them freezes too deeply. Your breath can freeze on your face and tear the skin.
Up there, I dressed much more warmly.
