Dude, are you staying warm?... Stovetop temps are overrrated and overstated - we men tend to do that kinda thing. I hear about all these uber stovetop temps and I say very good - my Big 6 very rarely shows a stovetop temp reading much above 450, and most of the time around 375, but it sure as hell is warm and sure as hell keeps my house warm. I dunno, maybe my thermo is off, or maybe there are some grossly overexagerrated temps - either way, if you're warm, you're warm!
Hey Dude, Dude:
Stovetop temps are what most wood stove users use to monitor the stove Dude. Not "we men", we
stove users that use the stove for heat Dude. Dude.
What's this "dude" thing anyway ? We ain't at some ranch.....yet.....dude. This some secret Kumbaya bonding term of endearment .....dude ?
And remember, dude, you're way down south in Dixie ( careful, we're gonna burst into song....) where there ain't no need for warm when you're warm.......dude. We're way north of the M-D Line.
Hey, there's snow, ice, there's temps that average---you hear AVERAGE-- in the 20's for a couple of months. And, BTW, dude, we have used about a cord already from what it is out to what we need to keep warm inside.
Just returned from the wood fired hot tub. Outside temp = 29.7 F, and it ain't December. Slid on my a$$ 'cause the deck was icy. Does that make me a dude dude.
Now the truth dude: what's your oil/gas furnace thermostat set at ?
This dude is dismissed.....maybe even to be dissed by all the dudefiles here. Love it Dude.
Dude out.
