I've been through extremes on both sides of the coin, even after becoming acclimatized, and I can tell you I'm better suited to deal with the heat. The older I get, the less I like the cold.
I agree with this Chris. Some people are just naturally more able to handle the cold, or the heat. Personally I've always been fairly temperature tolerant, whether its hot or cold it has to get really really hot or really really cold for me to be bothered by it. This minus 0 crap is getting old thats for sure.

I'll wear a t-shirt and a light jean jacket when its 35 degrees outside. With this -27 crap with -50 windchill, even my heavy coat only cuts it for a few minutes.

Good lord. That was a visual I could've gone without.

You bring back some good memories Scott .

I was just watching that same video about an hour ago.

Those were the days right there!

The first concert that I ever went to was an Aerosmith show.

Day on The Green #4 July 21, 1979
Oakland Stadium
Ted Nugent
Aerosmith
Frank Marino & Mahogany Rush

I've been hooked on music ever since.
