Some of you talk about how cold it gets and we are pussys for thinking 45 degrees is cold. (most of you from canada)

Well the people of Oymyakon think your winters are bullshit.

Oymyakon/Ojmjakon/Oimyakon (map) is the coldest permanently inhabited place on earth. Located in Siberia, the lowest recorded temperature here is -71.2 degrees Celsius. According to Wikipedia this is the lowest officially recorded temperature in the northern hemisphere.

The village has a population of around 800 and is located 690 meters above sea level and lies in a valley between two mountain ranges (the reason for the low temperatures). The name Oymyakon means "non-freezing water" because of the natural hot spring close to the village.

The temperature this week is pretty low and the temperature tomorrow is a chilly -63C which based on the stats at Wikipedia equals the record low for December.

Years ago I read a funny article while sitting at a bar in Wasilla, AK. It was back when Sarah Palin was still a beer maid. :9

Anthropologists were worried about the Inuits getting wiped out by AIDS. Apparently getting drunk and screwing is a common passtime. All it would take is one of them horndogs to get AIDS in the lower 48 and bring it back to Alaska. Game over. What puzzled the anthopologists is why it hadn't happened yet. They were thinking that Inuits may be AIDS resistant or non-progressors.
