Renee Zellweger, big time Hollywood actress...top notch IMO was on the Letterman show last night, talking about a movie made in Winnipeg last winter. She's from Texas and couldn't believe how cold it got..she said -55....but I think it was really a relatively balmy -41...I think she got confused by the wind chill reading.
She was talking about how Winterpeggers don't stop living their regular life no matter how cold it gets....you could extend that description to all Prairies types I would say.
She also indicated that the landscape was all white....hard to find the roads..they're white, the snowbanks are white, the land is white.....didn't know how people could drive.
She wasn't critical, just explaining how things were different to what she was used to.....Southern California and Texas...boy, with this cold winter, I could do with some Californai or Texas, about now....
