So when the temperatures gets down to the 30s we are literally freezing! Years ago I worked with a guy from Cleveland. One day it was in the 40s or 50s and I was complaining about being cold and he told me that it was "barbecue weather.!" : )

No more than I buy into the "it's not that cold here" for whatever reason (I was freezing my ass off in Orlando a couple of years ago in December, we were wearing jackets, hats and gloves and we were a LOT colder than we are here in Tokyo today on a "typical" day). Someone tell me where the most TEMPERATE climate is on the planet, and I swear I'll move there when I can!

We were amused at how "cold" the locals were. The CMs looked especially cute wearing their huge coats and rubbing their gloved hands as we paraded around in sweatshirts. We got a few looks from people, but no one had the guts to ask us if we were cold.
