It tends to come and go during the spring here. One minute it's sunny and 15C, then 6 hours later it's -8C and snowing. Calgary is a weird place, and definitely not a good place to start a career in weather forecasting.

The terms of this wager were not clearly defined at the time of the agreement. If the flames win, which they won't, you or your bar better accept paypal cause I'm not leaving my desk to pay up.
