I saw a guy walking down Sheffield last night wearing a cutoff. He had a black bandana, roadie black jeans and a beard that was a foot long.

He'd either evolved to the point where he was impervious to arctic temperatures or was just downright insane.

The point is: it's frickin' cold. Be careful out there.
