I don't have 'Memphis blood' but I must carry a recessive gene, since it appears that Yisrael has it! We are in the middle of a chamsin (heat wave) and Yisrael keeps turning off the fan every time I turn around. When I ask him why he keeps turning it off, he tells me "because it is making me cold!" I've tried explaining to him that its a hot day and that the fan cools us off, but he just says "I like to be hot!"
NOTE: For those of you who don't know what 'Memphis blood' is: Bubbie, my father's mother, was born in Memphis, TN. Even though she's been living in Chicago for over 50 years, she still can't handle the cold weather- she claims its her 'Memphis blood' that makes her hate the cold so much. She takes it to such an extreme that even until June, you can often find Bubbie with a sweater and long underwear on! My father must have inherited her 'Memphis blood', even though he was born in Chicago.
