Radio address for 01.17.08. How the weather affects movie rental patterns. Van break-down. Grace plays a jingle. What does it mean to be a man?

Mention is made of a blog post by Rachelskirts. Music is My Johnny Was a Shoemaker by Steeleye Span.

In Wednesday’s address I opined that there’s nothing wrong with skating in -30° F; lo and behold, today the Times prints an article backing me up on that.
