Oh yeah? Oh yeah?
It was something-something or other degrees and partly cloudy here EVERY NIGHT OF THE YEAR.
And we didn't care. We drank our coffees and carried our sweaters around with us (just in case we, you know, needed them), and we just enjoyed the Great Northwest dampness.
(Deep inhale) Aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh! You smell that air?! Robust!!!
