Boy is it cold outside

Ok so I plugged my truck in while at work today. -8 degrees out when I went to work. That is with windchill. This is the first time I plugged my truck in while at work. Well I get off work, go out start up the truck. It fires right up. Blows white smoke like crazy though. I am like it is cold as heck out here. I was shaking from the cold while wrapping up my cord. I get in the truck and I start to cruise home. I blow white smoke all the way home 12 miles. My engine temp gauge never moved all the way home either. I am like it is freakin cold out. I get home plug the truck back in. Go inside the house.

I jump on my computer and search for a grill cover for my truck. I find one Cabelas for 49.99 I am so gonna go buy one tomorrow.

global warming? I think that it might be hard to prove, in that part of the country.
Sunny California, were you can visit the snow then leave for home.

I was stationed in cali, Camp Pendelton to be exact. I used to go play up at Big Bear in the winter. I got pulled over by the highway patrol for not having chains. I asked him to remind me where I was from. Then I asked him if he had chains on. Then he gave me back my license and registration and told me to be safe and have fun.
