Happy Noreaster Saturday!

I'm watching one of the morning shows and they showed a cam of New York City's Central Park. It looks cold and desolate, not anyplace that I would ever want to be.

The chill in my house seems to be gone. Guess I better get my fat ass up and turn off the heat before it gets too warm in here.

are you one of those people that turns the thermostat up to 90F so the house warms up faster than setting it at 74F?

My wife is much like that. I just can't seem to explain to her that a thermostat is nothing more than an on and off switch

Nope, but I do like to make it too warm in the house so that when I get out of the shower it will feel nice and warm. I'll heat the house to about 78°F, then turn off the heat for the day and take a shower.

I also usually turn the shower on with it all the way to hot for about five minutes before I go and start my shower.
