Jumbo, that was a paraphrasing of a line I used years ago at a Cincinnati Reds opening day gave.
Several of us from work went together and it was a cold day..but I was running to the beer stand to keep a beer at hand..
One of the group, Martha D., commented after my 3rd or 4th trip: "Doesn't it ever get too cold for you to drink beer?"
I answered "Yes, it does, Martha. Sometimes it freezes and I have to eat it with a spoon."
