Deep Freeze December 2017

No doubt an Eskimo as fabulous breeze feeling in their element with style, elan while snacking on crackers and cheese this spate of bitter cold doth not seem to ease as Arctic air blast (oh riff you prefer Polar Vortex) submerged much of the nation in what feels like absolute zero, and no matter the appellation, the outdoors analogous to being in a deep freeze brings state of emergency (designated as Code Blue from drain on bare necessities sans: energy, food, general habiliments unable to traverse frozen waterways obstructing tankers access to key shipyards, thus imposing engines of society (Mother Nature decreed harshly lashed pact with ole man winter) asper bitter cold temperatures gripping sizable chunk of United States, where one step outside induces chattering class to shiver from hypothermia, and scant number of minutes will witness rigor mortis evinced by knocked knees whereat authoritative figures strongly advise (nee require) every person to stay home lest (if heedless) within seconds their body electric will seize from unseen large area of low pressure and cold air surrounds both of Earth's poles chastising anyone foolish enough to risk life or limb, thus take a page from hibernating bears playbook, and stay under warm covers collecting countless z's!
