It was a "mite" nippy at the Pentagon today, I was indulging in one of my favorite activities, well, the door blew open, and some son of a gun with a camera....... Well, you get the picture. :-) (email from George C.)

ROFLMAO!!! That is some GREAT ice sculpting!
Seriously though, how cold does it have to get before you guys will refuse to go out on a job, especially an outdoor construction job? I ask because here in the Philly area today's highs are going to be in the low to mid teens with wind chills of 5 to 10 below 0.
Any Philly-area sparkies going out to that construction site today? BRRRRRRRRRRRR!!
