Blizzarduos Coldege

Cold.
College.
Coldege.

Sometimes it's said that people who live in the South are stupid.
I submit that they are not.
Because they live in the South, where the weather is a positive number all the time.

People in the South may talk slowly, but that's probably just because they're not trying to rub two vocal chords together for warmth. They're not in a hurry to get out of the cold that they're not stupidly living in.

I was in Minnesota performing at a college.
It was cold there.
Seventeen degrees below zero. Fahrenheit. (More like Fahren-depth.)
Below nothing.
Below existence.
Existence is positive.
This was negative. No good. Seventeen degrees of no good.
I was not a fan.
(Which is good, because a fan only would have blown more cold air.)

Minnesota.
So cold.
Minneso cold.

It may have frozen the part of my brain that blogs sensibly.

Blizzard.
Arduous.
Blizzarduous.

    Also, your blog makes me laugh whenever I read the words that are written in it.
