You heard it here first, folks

I was in the car listening to Paul Harvey's News the other day (this isn't his 'The Rest of the Story' program, it's a five-minute collection of short news pieces from around the world), and heard the following (prepare yourself):

"In International Falls, Minnesota, this week, the temperature dipped to almost -40 degrees, setting records. It is so cold in International Falls that residents who want to drive their cars to work must have special heaters installed on their vehicles just to heat the engine block!"

Yeah. A block heater made the news. Clearly Paul Harvey is not from the northern States.

And then there's that COUNTRY called Canada where EVERYONE has a block heater. And it doesn't even make the news.
