Don't need to shovel rain, and we're getting a good bit of it. Flood watch thru tomorrow

A plan is just a list of things that doesn't happen.
Is defenestration possible through the overton window?

It's going to be in the single digits tomorrow.  And I'm going pheasant hunting.

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

So, a couple weeks ago it was 25 below.

Now we had freezing rain and a half inch of snow last night, and it is 32 degrees  =(   :facepalm:

Looks like we're going to have one of the warmest Christmases on record at the folks' place. Calling for high 60's. Clear skies, so the nights have still been dropping to the 30deg range. I've been going from a coat and gloves in the morning, to breaking out my Summer fishing shirts in the afternoon.

I know you guys with the ice are probably wishing some of that warm air would make it your way, but I hate this weather at Christmas time. One of my favorite things to do is sit by the fire and read, and have the fire going all day Christmas. This year it looks like I'll be sitting out on the deck in short sleeves for my Christmas cigar and whiskey. Back at my house it's gonna be high 70's on Christmas.

We had the rain last night.  The roads were an ice skating rink this morning.

We are just getting more and more glorious snow!  Probably a foot already, which is heavy for our area, at least as of the last decade.  Temps fell to below zero early this week, now it's up into the 20's and even the 30's for the weekend.  Perfect weather for making snowmen!

Fog, fog, and more fog.  Some pockets of freezing fog here and there.

If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Now the guesscast is calling for 40s tomorrow.  I hope we don't lose all my beautiful snow . . .

You get 40s and I get high 60s.  Got to get the Bermuda shorts out again.  (Them, plus the black nylon kneehigh socks & the Bierkinstocks. =D )

stay safe.

Preferably with garters for the socks, and suspenders for the shorts.

Please, they are Bermuda shorts, after all.  And they both have the correct regimental stripe.  http://tinyurl.com/osmd6f8
