fahrenheit vs. celcius

got this from a buddy...........thought i'd share.

50° Fahrenheit (10° C)

Californians shiver uncontrollably,
Canadians plant gardens.



35° Fahrenheit (1.6° C)

Italian cars won't start,
Canadians drive with the windows down.



32° Fahrenheit (0° C)

American water freezes,
Canadian water gets thicker.



0° Fahrenheit (-17.9° C)

New York City landlords finally turn on the heat,
Canadians have the last barbecue of the season.


-60° Fahrenheit (-51° C)

Mt. St. Helens freezes,
Canadians Girl Guides sell cookies door to door.



-100° Fahrenheit (-73° C)

Santa Claus abandons the North Pole,
Ottawa canal opens for skating.



-173° Fahrenheit (-114° C)

Ethyl alcohol freezes,
Canadians get frustrated when they can't thaw the keg.



-460° Fahrenheit (-273° C)

Absolute zero; all atomic motion stops,
Canadians start saying "cold eh?"


-500° Fahrenheit (-295° C)

Hell freezes over,
Leafs win Stanley Cup.

*sigh* if only that were all it took for the Leafs to win the Cup.

Seriously, though, the first two (three) are actually true.

COLD AS ICE
Foreigner


You're as cold as ice
You're willing to sacrifice our love
You never take advice
Someday you'll pay the price, I know

I've seen it before
It happens all the time
Closing the door
You leave the world behind

You're digging for gold
Yet throwing away
A fortune in feelings
But someday you'll pay

You're as cold as ice
You're willing to sacrifice our love
You want paradise
But someday you'll pay the price, I know

I've seen it before
It happens all the time
Closing the door
You leave the world behind

You're digging for gold
Yet throwing away
A fortune in feelings
But someday you'll pay

brief instrumental

(Cold - as - ice)
You know that you are
(Cold-cold) - (as-as) - (ice)
As cold as ice to me
(Cold-cold-cold) - (as-as-as) - (ice)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh, you're as cold as ice)
(You're as cold as icccce)
You're as cold as ice
(Cold as icccce)
Cold as ice I know
(You're as cold as icccce)
You're as cold as ice
(Cold as icccce)
Cold as ice I know
(You're as cold as icccce)
Oh, yes I know
(Cold as icccce)
(You're as cold as icccce)
You're as cold as ice
(Cold as icccce)
Cold as ice I know
(You're as cold as icccce)
Oh, yes I know
(Cold as icccce)

Fahrenheit vs Celcius?

I'll take Celcius with a knockout in round 4.

However, if it goes the full 12 rounds, I predict a Fahrenheit victory by split decision.
