It’s okay my friend, I am older than you and will likely remain that way until I die.Don't fear the Old Side Cal... its comfy over here

See George? You are already on the right page, much better than the fatherly advice that told you otherwise.When you start growing up.........Oh, nevermind. I'm not doing that, I'll stay a kid forever....
I will go to my grave wearing Hawaiian shirts and listening to Jimmy Buffett. It’s just what I do.
Just crank up the juice on some of those sweep tubes you test the limits on, and you'll be warm in the basement 😁After paying the $462 electric bill I shut all of the heater vents in the basement where I work. The temp in here has dropped to 59F (15C) and I might get a shirt on my next trip upstairs. It's now 25F (-4C) outside and the concrete walls down here feel cold.
.......and listening to Jimmy Buffett. It’s just what I do.
Is that your nickname for your favourite side table? You ARE getting old!
I welcome my sweetie to turn up the heat. When she does, I start removing clothing.Sometimes I wonder if I should be a bit less tight with the heating,
Apparently, her donning sweaters is the desired alternative.
Somethings I will never understand.
I look in the mirror and all I can think is: Hubba Hubba!
Stuey, You might have mis-thought ‘buffet’
Jimmy would not like that. He shares a namesake with Warren.
He’s also the only billionaire whose music I listen to.

Indoor winter warmth for me is a poly fleece zip up vest over a long sleeve T or mock turtleneck. Or, a light fleece long-sleeve quarter zip over a short sleeved shirt. The vest has hand warmer pockets, which are nice. Thermostat sits at 67F/19C during the day. Outdoors I wear a down-filled puffer vest, but it's too noisy for indoor wear.
My father wore cardigans. I'm not old like him, am I?

Yeah, I know. Tryna be funny... 🙂
we had to replace the boiler in our ohio house this week as it was near to failing. the inside temp got down to 52F which is like camping weather in the fall, but mamselle did not appreciate it at all. we are fortunate to have a bunch of space heaters. bourbon does not warm you up.
the drive to NJ this afternoon temps hit 14F in the general vicinity of Hazleton
here is the famous Perry Como in a cardigan:

Extensive experimentation with proof level, rate of consumption and total volume consumed would suggest otherwise...of course if you're going to go deep it needs to be a good quality offering.bourbon does not warm you up.
Back in the days I used to fish for Atlantic Salmon during February - often when there was a lot of ice on the quieter water.bourbon does not warm you up.
The gillie in charge was a. very heavy drinker and during warmer weather would soon polish off a bottle of Scotch almost all for himself.
However when the weather was really cold he would not touch a drop and advised strongly that we too refrained. He claimed that
strong drink in such conditions was the fastest route to hypothermia.
...as Perry is wearing the cardigan whilst holding a golf club makes it pretty certain that the cardigan is made from Cashmere wool...here is the famous Perry Como in a cardigan:
the most luxurious wool ever grown on any animal and also has the best insulation properties in a natural product.
I think jumping in the water through the hole in the ice would be faster, but point taken. It gets you moving and produces heat you should be conserving.He claimed that
strong drink in such conditions was the fastest route to hypothermia.
