I took a video on my phone (first time I've tried it), and fucked it all up, instead of taking one video, I took about 12 30 second videos, and I'm not sure how to download them onto my laptop (yet) and possible put them together to make one.

But, the guy I was talking to has 320 acres for sale, which would probably be a real good investment if the market doesn't go down the tube, like I predict it will.

I'm hitting the hay too....drove most of the day, for some reason the traffic was nuts, and freeways closed north of Phoenix for bridge demolition, road widening, et al......:sad:

Sorry I didn't show up again last night. After Lannie went to bed, I did the dinner dishes, fed/watered the cats, then laid myself down to watch Spaceballs for the 47th time (Mel Brooks comedy in case you haven't seen it). I didn't see much of it and woke up about 12:30 AM, so I just put myself to bed. I seem to be getting too tired too often lately; must be old age. o_O Anyhooooo, I will try to be here tonight.

Was it winter spring or summer today?

Gotta ask, cuz one never knows......:sad:
Well, our forecast for the day said partly cloudy and breezy. I looked up and said, "Those are cumulus and they are building fairly rapidly. I think it's gonna rain." Lannie said there was no rain in the forecast. An hour later, the sky was dark and you could see rain coming down to the west and south. Lannie pulled up the weather forecast and, lo and behold, the radar showed showers all around us (looked like a line of instability - thunderstorms). Suddenly, woosh... high wind and heavy rain. I saw it coming hours before it happened just by looking at the clouds and the official forecast didn't change to rain until it was actually happening. Why can't these assholes do their jobs? They are talking freezing temps and possible snow by Thursday night. Should we believe them? Will it be sunny and warm or a fucking blizzard?

I have a ton of outside work to do and can't even plan for it because I don't have even a vague clue what will be going on from one day to the next. I wish I had reliable satellite and doppler data and maybe I could do it myself -- better that they do because clearly these idiots don't give a flying fuck what they put out... They could tell me what is going to happen in Ireland and it likely would be more accurate than what is likely to happen here. Do I sound bitter? Why don't they even care to try to be accurate?

I think I made $10,000 a year to be accurate within 5 miles of the base perimeter and within 5 minutes of actual occurrence (or I got my ass chewed). They make in excess of $100,000/year to play on facebook and fart in our general direction. We both had a BS in meteorology, but they had courses in basket weaving and political ass kissing while mine were atmospheric physics and thermodynamics.

Mid 90s today, pushing 100 tomorrow here in the Central Valley. Allegedly back down to the mid 80s Sunday according to the weather guessers. I'm quite happy with the mid 80s myself.

Got an email from the county I live in. They are going to march lock-step with whatever our commie governor says as far as the lock down.:cuss2: Other counties here in the PRC are saying FU to Newsome, we are going to open up.

I assume that is a good thing... Are you going to start house shopping in Surprise, AZ now, or wait for the official date?
I've been looking online. I can't do anything until after I get my back surgery. Once I recover from back surgery repairs will be done and my house will be put up for sale. It will probably early next year before I can escape from the USSK.

I am not a religious person, Don, so please don't take this to be too wacko... :)

May your surgery be successful and
May your desires become your reality.
I shall send energy in your direction that you get exactly what you dream of.
Reality is what you make it to be, so make yours a good one.
