jeepdude10000 said:The saying "it's so cold out there it could freeze the balls off a
brass monkey" came from when they had old cannons like ones used in the
Civil War. The cannonballs were stacked in a pyramid formation, called
a brass monkey. When it got extremely cold outside they would crack
and
break off... Thus the saying.
source? I'm calling BS
that and I have never heard of freezing the balls off a brass monkey
it can, however, be colder than a witches tit!
