Our hose is in the garage. Fortunately our place is poorly insulated enough that heat leaks into the garage and keeps it semi heated, and the hose stays just above freezing.

I guess there are SOME advantages to having piss-poor insulation.

My garage has the (currently) barely heated basement next to it and the (currently) barely heated family room above it. Both adjacent areas are in the mid to low 50's, yet the garage was in the mid to upper 30's even when it was in the teens outside. Granted the garage doors have some semblance of insulation, but the door to the basement is pretty well sealed.

Leave this morning. Unfortunately, I sliced two fingers badly last night. I don't think that I can play golf. At least the scenery and ocean will be nice...
Yikes... at first I thought you were telling us you were pleasuring yourself to the weather forecast.

How'd you sustain the injury?
sharp-ass cheese grater.

Thankfully, a nurse was on scene at the time. Sucks to cut your hand so badly at 11pm the night before a trip. Oh well...it seems to be healing well enough...

Reminds me of the expression, "Talking to you is like masturbating with a cheese grater: mildly interesting, but mostly painful."
