i went to the burton store in NYC yesterday to check it out and they have this thing called the cold room. Its -2 in there and its full of ice benches and had a deer head on the wall. so the deal is you try on all their winter jackets and snow pants and then you go in there to see how they hold up to the cold. it was pretty awesome.

long time ago in toronto they had this cool outdoor store where you could try out a rain coat in this modified shower. mec put it out of business. since it was on the same street. (at a time every outdoor equipment clothing store was on front street)

^what does it matter to me if the rest of the country is fat? Im not and the girls I hang out with arent either so poor attempt at an insult lateralis. At least I didnt just admit I was a hairy monkey.

well since the store is in the states, im guessing its -2 farenheit. which is actually almost -19 celcius. which is cold, in my opinion.

We much prefer Hairy women in VT to fat women, just to throw that out there. VT really isn't part of the US anyways though.

ha! leave it to americans to think -2 is cold! If you wanna see how your jacket holds up in the cold make it minus 30. then you find out how the jacket holds up in the winter.
