"Alright, Mr. Snow Lover...."

"Darren! I am not going out there!"

"Ahh Danny, it's just a little bit of snow, nothing to get worked up over..."

"It's not the snow that I'm worried about."

"Then what is?"

"You know how cold it is out there?"

"Well, if it is snowing, it gives the generalization that it is a bit chilly, but we've seen worse."

"Wrong, you have...You live in San Francisco."

"Danny, it doesn't snow in San Fran."

"Well still, it gets colder there than in Brissy or Sydney."

"You are a wuss!"

"Alright Mr. Snow Lover, you go see how cold it is out there while I stay here all nice and warm."

"If I go out in my coat, I'm not going to be cold then, am I?"

"DARREN!"

"Fine, alright, I'm going. I swear Daniel, you get worse every trip we take."

"Well, it wasn't my idea to go to Salt Lake in the middle of winter, now was it?"

"You were here this time last year! You remember the Olympics, don't you?"

"I got to sit in a very nicely warmed building for that, thank you. I wasn't wandering aimlessly through an outdoor mall."

"You need to get out and live it up."

"And you need to go out and see how cold it is. I mean it, I'm not going out there!"

"Why don't you just turn on the Weather Channel and see what it says?"

"Oh what, you scared? Who's the wuss now, Darren?"

"Neeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrr"

"What the hell was that?"

"That was me sticking out my tongue out at you, but whoever is writing this is only letting us talk."

"Ahhh, ok, well look out there at those people out on the street."

"What about them?"

"You can see their breath. The means it's cold out there!"

"Jonesy, that means that it could be bordering on freezing. Doesn't mean that it is actually that cold out there."

"Alright, that one is pulling his coat tighter. Scarves and gloves and big puffy coats. That spells 'freezing' to me..."

"You are being ridiculous. Winter is supposed to be cold, that's what winter is. We came here to enjoy come time away from the business, and all you want to do is sit in here and argue about whether or not it's cold outside?"

"If you would just go out there, we wouldn't have to argue about it, now would we? I don't see why you are making such a huge deal about this..."

"Because you want me to go out there are freeze my arse off, just to come back in here and tell you that it is freezing out there! I don't see why you can't stick your head out the door and see how cold it is for yourself!"

"Ah ha! So you admit that it is cold out there! I knew it....IknewitIknewitIknewitIknewit!"

"Stop dancing around the room before they lock you up for insanity."

"I think they'd get you before they'd even think of taking me in."

"Why is that?"

"Because I'm the strong silent guitarist. I don't go prancing around like I'm crazy all the time."

"Right, you're off topic again."

"Again?"

"Yes, you, Mr. Jones, are off topic for the uptenth time today. If we're going to argue about snow and cold and winter and so on and so forth, keep on topic!"

"You're the one that got us off of it in the first place."

"No I wasn't. You were the one dancing around like an idiot."

"Ah yes, but you were the one that admitted that it was freezing outside."

"Well, you started the conversation in the first place."

"Only because you wanted to go outside...."

"Only because you said you'd like to go do something...."

"Only because you brought me out to the middle of nowhere, and the power keeps going on and off."

"Only because you said you were tired of lazing around in my living room for the passed three weeks..."

"I am not lazy!"

"Are too..."

"Are not!"

"Are too!"

"Are NOT!"

"Are TOOOOO!"

"ARE NOT NOT NOT!!!"

"ARE TOO TOO TOOOOOOO!"

"*snerk*"

"What?!"

"You just look funny all puffed up and flustered. Come to think of it, you just look funny when you're mad."

"You did not just insult me."

"Nope, just said that you look funny."

"That is an insult..."

"In whose book?"

"Mine, Daniel..."

"Ohhhhh, you used my first name....I'm just so scared, Darrreeeeennnnn...."

"Wanker."

"Tosser."

"Snogger."

"I know, I'm rather good at it if I do say so myself."

"That's good, no one else would say it."

"Hmph..."

"Stop being so childish."

"I'm not the one being childish here."

"Okay, now we're both off topic. What the hell is our problem?"

"We both want the last word in an argument?"

"True. Okay, how about we just go find all of our really warm clothes, and venture out together and brave however cold it is. We're men, right? We can take it!"

"I don't know, you seem more of a Diva to me..."

"DANIEL!!!"

"Alright, alright, I'm going, I'm going."

"Good. I can't wait to go play in the snow."

**

"Oh my GOD!"

"What?"

"It's ten below out there!"

"Darren, I told you it was freezing."

"Now I don't even want to go out there..."

"I just got into six layers of clothes, and now you don't want to go out there?"

"Can you blame me?"

"No, but they aren't going to be able to blame me either when I drown you in the toilet!"

"You don't need to get angry about it..."

"Come here, Darren....We're going to have a little talk about this...."

"Dan, put the scarf down....Dan...I mean it....I don't like that look....Dan!...DAN!"
