Sailor's delight.
Red Sky at morning,

Rusty said...: I like pink in the morning. Not necessarily the sky.; 1/24/13, 7:34 AM
MadisonMan said...: It was really beautiful to see on the bus in. Quite a deep red around 6:30, and more of a pink at 7. Awesome!; 1/24/13, 7:35 AM
Clyde said...: It was chilly at my house when I got home this morning. I forgot to switch from the A/C to heat before I left last night, and the temperature was 64 degrees inside (about 49 outside). Oops! Heat's on... At least until midday.; 1/24/13, 7:41 AM
MadisonMan said...: Why would you turn the heat on if it's 64 degrees already in your house?; 1/24/13, 7:58 AM
Ann Althouse said...: 64° in the house. That's what I turn the thermostat up to when I'm chilly. The daytime setting is 62 and the nighttime programmed temperature is 56°. Meade tries to get me to turn it down to 45° at night! Or open the window.

Your body produces its own heat, you know.; 1/24/13, 8:06 AM
pm317 said...: Hey! we have the white stuff here.. this morning. Our thermostat reads 70. We are warm blooded people from the tropics.; 1/24/13, 8:10 AM
Unknown said...: I prefer to be in a cool environment especially at night. 64 degrees is about right at night for me. It does make getting out of bed a thrilling experience.; 1/24/13, 8:12 AM

Not enough when you are in Chicago in January.

Now, if I was home.; 1/24/13, 8:14 AM
MadisonMan said...: 70! Heat-induced torpor is a result!; 1/24/13, 8:27 AM

Freeman Hunt said...: Our house is insulated like a hobbit hole. It's pretty much always the same temperature, no matter the season.; 1/24/13, 8:53 AM
Freeman Hunt said...: Well, okay, we vary it a little. Sixty-nine in winter, seventy-one in summer. I like wearing sweaters, but I am the only one in the house who does.; 1/24/13, 8:58 AM

If you keep teeing up the lawyer jokes, we're gonna start spiking them over the net...; 1/24/13, 8:58 AM

Mid-Life Lawyer said...: Lovely. Reminds me of a Beth Orton song.; 1/24/13, 9:20 AM
Eric the Fruit Bat said...: I'm having a very difficult time deciding whether Penélope Cruz is better looking than Priyanka Chopra or whether it's the other way round.; 1/24/13, 9:45 AM

Yes, but you lose it quickly in cold weather.

Unless you have a comforter, several blankets, a few dogs (breed dependent), and possibly a spouse shielding against loss of said heat.; 1/24/13, 9:57 AM
Ann Althouse said...: A down comforter is all you need. I even replaced the heavy one with a light one or Meade would have opened the windows.; 1/24/13, 10:21 AM
edutcher said...: Glad you think so.

I believe the survival guys who say, "layers".

I've also got a wife with lousy circulation.

(I OTOH have veins she lusts for - if only to draw the blood from them)
