Roger that. But for those fortunate few Minnesotans that may own one, well, there just ain’t nothin’ better to wake you up in the morning than an ice water bidet.

That is outstanding advice!

First things first. Get a dingleberry warmer. THEN think about the engine block.


Are you talking about owning a dingleberry here, or owning a bidet?

Look, if one owns dingleberries, one probably should own a bidet. The two subjects are hopelessly entwined.

If, on the other hand (so to speak), one gets one’s dingleberries entwined in an ice water bidet, the prognosis truly is hopeless.

Q: How did “the prognosis” get involved in this? What’s “the prognosis”??

A: It’s not good if your dingleberries are frozen.

Would you agree with my decision not to go with an engine block heater given my plan?

Not needed for me,but I have 2 block heaters: One replaces a freeze plug and the other is in line with the bottom radiator hose.It would be good to have a back up block heater.
The power feeds off to a trickle charger , for the battery:3 A. on board one.
It's just nice when I can get heat 2 blocks from my house.(I hate leather seats!)

The temp gauge is up to as much as 1/4 when I start it in the mornings.
I'm 170 and very sensitive to cold weather.Better, if I could gain 30 pounds.

Depends on where you park your Edge.

So if one walked around with frozen dingleberry's, would/could they still chafe? Inquiring minds...


I remember a trip to Disney, I would've killed for frozen dingleberry's, I was a hurtin' mohican.
Awesome. I start on the last page of a thread that I think is about Minnesota/SP (where I have several relatives) to find that it's really about dingleberries and bidets

There sumpthin' wrong with you, or what, Campion? Get with the program, man.

I'll admit, it got me curious to start at the beginning of the thread to see how it ended up here.
The reality of Minnesota/Wisconsin weather is becoming quite apparent. After very nice weather my first 5 weeks in the area, including fantastic weather for last week's Ryder cup, it's now cold. High of 46 yesterday, low of 38 last night and tonight. 40 degrees outside now.

I love the job, the people, the town..............but can't we move this place 400 miles south?

Oh, I also love the cocktail prices, as it's the cheapest place on Earth to drink. I drink "house" vodka tonics, which are called "rail vodka tonics" in this neck of the woods. Every day of the week (less Saturday) before 6 pm, most bars pour a double for $3- $3.50. But here's the kicker. Depending on the day, they either give you a free drink chip for use at ANY other time, and some days the second drink costs $1. It's essentially free, for God's sake. A double ends up running about $2.
