We were just talking about this last night at supper. We need rain. Maybe your banana man can be a raindance guy?

the wind blew like it was straight out of hades

I just thought you’d like it dry for a change. You want muggy, I’ll stop talking.

Unfortunately, the humidity (unlike heat) does not have the ability to “sneak” up on you. It just smacks you in the face with a damp washcloth over your face and says, “Here! Now try to breathe!” and laughs maniacally. bwahahahaha

The only benefit to living near the coast, in a coastal state is the ability to get to the water pretty quickly. Unlike when I lived in Indy. Unless you knew someone with a pool, or had the balls to sneak your way into the hotel pools…you were screwed.

Let the rain dance begin!

I’m so glad I moved away from fl. My family lives about 10 miles from lpga at daytona. ( i hope it does get as bad as it did in 99)

4:05 here and not a cloud in sight… no rain… again. Gah!

Hey now…I AM in Texas, also near Houston, and it is a nice 78 today and the humidity dude decided to let us breathe…today LOL

78? I could cheerfully slap you right now. Didn’t you step on my foot in 2nd grade? Yeah, I thought the abuse went back to Anderson Elementary…

You know I love you.

Must conjure more banana dancing!!!

Bring on the rain!!

Oops. Sorry. I think that we got your rain. I think that the devil blew it just a little bit too far north (and a little too hard) so it just missed Florida. (We had too much rain all weekend. So much so that parts of GA had some storm damage.)

I’ll help too:

Hopefully, that will work for Florida, and not for GA, ’cause we got more than we can take right now.

As much as I hate to admit it. This is all part of Global Climate Change. Warmer, drier, hotter, colder? Who knows. The only sure thing is that it will be different.

I always knew you liked it hot and wet, babe!

I was at work, but now I;’m home, and thus the ribaldry begins anew.

Wes:

HONK. Sorry, wrong answer! Next time, don’t drink the Kool-Aid!

A:

I told Gwen you were at work. Ha! Got something right today…

Bou:

As it is, the friction of my shoes on my lawn could start a small fire.

Yep, and my watering day isn’t until Wednesday. My lawn is long past dead…

HONK. Sorry, wrong answer! Next time, don’t drink the Kool-Aid!

Being only fifty you will live to eat those words.

Well, Wes got one thing right:

It’s now “global climate change”, not “global warming”.

Moving the goalposts in the middle of the game always ensures an easy victory for the Left.

My thing is… who am I supposed to believe? WHICH scientists? There are plenty on each side, but because it’s become politically correct to believe in global warming, more people are buying into it…

When they found that one of the ice caps was actually adding ice underneath a few month ago -which I can’t find, of course, probably because I’m not stating it correctly- not one large media outlet carried the story.
‘Eco’ has become a religion, and nobody wants to dis their god.

Tell you what, you send some of that warm weather up this way (was a whoping 50 degrees here yesterday, and the day before and the day before that, etc) and I will send some of this horrible rain we are having near daily here.

Oh, and what is a good site to look up what areas are being effected by the fires. Probably should be a good daughter and make sure mom isn’t being roasted.

There are no reputable scientists on the side of the contrarians. Period!
The Oregeon Institute of Science and Malarky is just that.
The Anatartic is definitely getting warmer. The increase in sea ice is due to the reduction in local ocean salinity caused by the rapid melting of land ice.
You might want to consider selling out and moving to an area that is at least 100 feet above todays sea level. In reality we probably won’t see that big of an increase in our lifetimes. However, we will live to see some very big changes.
The ugly truth is that things are changing so fast the models that scientists have used for decades are no longer valid.
The other ugly truth is that properly reviewed and published studies have about a two to three year lag before publication due to the time needed to evaluate tremendous amounts of data and the rigid peer review requirements of the scientific community.

Wes…just curious, is your Kool-Aid Lime flavored? My favorite was grape, followed by orange personally.

And the fact that the earth changes and continues to evolve has nothing whatsoever to do with the “global warming” suddenly taking place. Nah…that would be anti-Gore talk right there.

By the way, I remember distinctly it snowing on a lovely late May evening of my Senior Prom. Yeah, a woold coat just didn’t go with my black strapless dress for my formal prom. And this was Indiana.

It happens.

I prefer Black Cherry. Thank you very much.

Looks like we got us a prisoner of war, folks!

High five to A - love it!

Wes - have to give you a hard time. No hard feelings. Here’s a green squishy pillow to hold. It’ll help.

WeB - let me know when you find him…we’ll string him up by his toenails and celebrate Cinco De Mayo all over again!

I personally want to invest in that dense groundcover ivy that people put on their yards. That seems rather “florida friendly” (doesn’t that take on a whole new meaning in a drought!). Looks green, no mowing…where’s the downside? Prettier than rocks. Any thoughts?

Ground cover ivy? I don’t think I’m familiar… what would the dog poop on in that case?

Yep, “H” season starts in less than a month.

Right now it’s lovely here, if you don’t count the smoke… nice and cool this morning. I took Bree for a walk before breakfast. That’s not going to happen very often this summer… too hot.

I need a treadmill!!!

Ms. Pam…

Here’s a lady who just wrote a series on the global warming hoax crises… She’s got about a zillion links in a couple of her posts…

Very interesting lady… Spend a little time at her site if you have time…
