Make sure it's Canada Goose brand down-filled Mens jacket C2083044! You can choose Canada Goose Pink Ski Womens Tritanium Jacket C016595 because you are in the Canada sub-forum, 403RS! I know a perfect gift for your Yaris, which would be some leather seat covers, which is like placing your seats in a Canada Goose jacket for Children C098347093...Ha, do people think that anyone falls for that crap?

I know, the low temps down here are into the 50s!?!
Cheers! M2 p.s. And for our Canadian friends, that's Fahrenheit!

Those of us over 50, at least myself, still think in fahrenheit. But comprehend both. We remember MPH too.

I kinda miss the metric system from our days of living in Europe. Kilometers go by a lot faster than miles (they sound faster as well!). I don't care much for Celsius, though!
The US is one of only three countries, along with Burma (Myanmar) and Liberia, that still use customary units! There was one effort in 1975 to move us to it within ten years, but it never materialized. A second legislation required most Federal agencies to use the metric system in their procurement, grants, and other business-related activities by the end of 1992, and again the private sector didn't follow suit. So it looks like we're stuck with our miles, gallons, pounds and Fahrenheit! Cheers! M2

0 is cold 10 is cool 20 is warm 30 is hot anything below 0 or above 30 I don't want to think about. Roy |
