Arctic Wit

Near the Arctic, only two passengers were bold/foolish enough to climb up to this lookout point: me and a 12 year old kid. On the trek, I asked him, 'Since you've lived in Alaska your whole life, how cold does it need to get before you'd say 'wow, it's really cold'?'
He thought about it, then replied, 'That really depends on what I'm wearing'.
Touché my quick witted, young friend.
(This same child would later pull me up a snow slope after I sank & trapped myself. I'm told it was hilarious to watch from the bus. You're welcome, America.)
