               to the January                   BREAKING NEWS:

            2020 Host of the                    “Unseasonable cold temperatures litter
                                              South Florida with stunned iguanas.”

                                                And finally, courtesy of a tweet from the
            Networking Group                  National Weather Services: “This isn’t some-
                                              thing we usually forecast, but don’t be sur-

                                                As if Carol doesn’t get cold enough when the temperatures hover at 70 degrees, we’ve just spent a week listening to all these

                                              exacerbate the problem, I live with a bloodless human being … Carol. This is a woman whose first reaction to a Weather
