- Learn to build igloo’s
– Buy a sled and start training Siberian Huskies to pull it
– Invest in a snowmobile
– Stay in Phoenix, Arizona where I am now and do nothing. We’re impervious to really cold temperatures. Even an ice age.

I’d start digging a tunnel under a few grocery stores. Deep enough to stay warm.

I’d do my best to keep that acorn away from Scrat because I love his adorable antics.

@NaturalMineralWater – Well, plus, you might need that acorn for supper.

It’s gonna be him or you, amirite?

Fire and Ice, by Robert Frost

Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I’ve tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.

@aprilsimnel I think I’d probably eat the acorn AND Scrat. But I’d get a giggle in first.

gail’s reference reminds me of that one spyro game

“Fire and ice
neither aint so nice
not to mention troubles
with sparks and bubbles”

lol

so yeah, human popcicles…..

can i be cherry flavored?

@Phoenixero; Frost said it in 1920 and said it better. One could write a very long paper analyzing the poem. Spyro’s would take two sentences (short ones).

I am interested that the people answering here are unfamiliar with that verse. It’s a very famous one, in literary circles. Obama suggested we all read more and turn off the gadgets. I concur.

i know who robert frost is hun, so please dont begin to judge me, i was simply stating that it reminded me of something else.

im actually quite literate and have an extensive knowledge even tho im only 19. so please dont think that youre horse is high than all the others.

and ftr, i think obama is a moron. some goes for mccain, nader, and all the other candidates we had this term.

@gailcalled, why are you so hypercritical? It seems like half of what you say is brilliant, seemingly gleaned from decades of experience, and the other half is to show us that experience. I value your input but it can be a bit of a downer. Sorry.

phoenixero's avatar

@gailcalled thanks for the compliment, as half faced as it was, ill take it. And just because i have the knowledge, doesnt mean i like to flaunt it around. My look on life is, its not whos the richest, smartest, best looking, or best dressed. Its who has the most fun. and i like having fun….

I wasn’t judging but commenting.
