[Rhodes22-list] Cold weather hits the tropics!

[Herb Parsons]

What's the weather supposed to be like Saturday and Sunday, through next
week, down that way?

It's cooling down really fast in Baton Rouge, so you must be getting 
good and chilly by now. It was in the 70s at lunch time today. Down to

50 and thunderstorming when I left work, and getting ready to drop in 
the upper 30s now. I'll be outside Friday night during some of the 
coldest weather in our recorded history, smoking turkeys. At least it's

a pastime that involves fire, and I have a 90% full bottle of Mt. Gay
to 
help the warming process.

Hope all of you guys have great holliday seasons, and hope all of your

teams win their bowl games (unless you're an Iowa fan, since they're 
playing LSU)!
