  • Halsfield, on 01/06/2009, -1/+4to be that old and still go out naked, stand in a frozen pond, and hack the ice up enough to go for a morning swim is doing pretty good. I know people that do the polar bear swims, but they wear jackets all the way up to and immediately after the quick swim and usually drunk off their asses to keep from feeling cold. that guy seemed like he was just out there for the fun of it.
