It was 74° here yesterday.
There's a chance of 3+ inches of snow this weekend.

Meanwhile here in Fla. it's 'wildfire' season about a month early. A huge one near Naples closed down almost the entire southern section of I-75 across the Everglades because of smoke. The authorities, in all their imminent wisdom, are advising people to use US 41 to cross instead. If you've never been on this road, the original 'Alligator Alley', it's a great road to drive if you want beautiful scenery and a slow, relaxing ride-- but you can't really..... go fast, maybe? Now with thousands of people trying to use it all at once....? What the hell are they thinking?  :hide:

Truckers gotta truck, communters gotta commute, and snowbirds have to dawdle along and looky-loo
My doctor wrote me a prescription for daily sex.

My wife insists that it says dyslexia but what does she know.

Beautiful day today but tomorrow night temperature drops back below freezing with snow and then temps stay below freezing for a week with ice and snow a few days. Just in time for spring.

How does that March saying go? "In like a lion, out like a lamb, or in like a lamb, out like a lion" whatever it is , its a seasonal weather transition month. Up here it means winter gets replaced by less winter.

It's 67F right now on Wednesday afternoon in Washington DC, so I started thinking that it's about time to resume tennis with my buddy.  We normally play on Tuesday after work, so I checked the forecast for next week, and we're expecting an inch of snow!

Gusington

I just looked at the forecast for next Tuesday and we're supposed to get 8 inches of snow. I guess this makes up for the 75 degree days we had in February.

your people can go home now.
Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

It's your burden, not mine. I for one am grateful they go there and not California. That would mean more line ups at wine tastings in Napa Valley.
