Some folks across the West and Midwest woke up to temperatures in the negative double digits.

That means that everybody you know is going to be commenting on the cold today. It would be a great idea to have some one lines to toss at them.

WARNING! - I never said these were good jokes.

I've made a list for you. You're welcome.

1. It’s so cold I chipped a tooth on my soup! - Okay that one sucks. off to a bad start. Sorry.

2. It’s so cold Jack Frost changed his name to Jack Froze. A little better. Just a little.

3. It’s so cold…I have to wave a blow-torch in front of my nose just to have a sneeze.

4. It’s so cold…even the ATM shows minus.

5. It’s so cold . . .the dogs at the greyhound track have to put jumper cables on the rabbits just to get them running! Hmmm.. On second thought forget that joke. Too complicated and lame.
