I've lived in Los angeles my entire life. I have never seen it as cold as it has been lately.

Yep, it was nice in this area. I've been riding horses!

It was just too nice to pass up even though I needed to be doing other things.

It's 3:30 in the afternoon right now and the temperature is 52 degrees. That's unheard of for Los Angeles. I can't believe how cold it is.

this might sound retarded but does your house have heat?

Yes, I have heat but I don't need it. It never gets cold in my unit. I live in a condominium building. What's so strange is that it never gets cold in my place no matter what. I never have to use the heat. It never drops below 72 degrees in my unit. The thing that's so strange about it is that some other people in my buliding say that it gets really cold in their units.

Sometims it will be 50 degrees out at night and I look at my thermometer in my unit and it's 77 degrees. I actually have to open my windows for a few minutes to try to get it to cool down a couple of degrees.

I think floating means they put a couple inches of standing water on the track,and float chunks of amphetamine- like substances on top of it.Then they let Monteleone (or whoever ) take his horses out there to feast on it.That makes sense.That would explain how a 1 for 17 horse can go 10 wide on the turn and not get 1 bit tired.
