I REALLY Wish...

...that it would STOP EFFING RAINING in my area. I'm sick, sick, sick to death of it.

Rain may be the pitts, but believe me when I say, you DON'T want a drought. We just got out of one that lasted 2 years (you may recall phone conversations of mine in '08 were I talked about the ash-tinged sky; that all all the wildfires we had) & I still remember the biggest California had back in the early 1990's: we had water rationing. That's not fun at all.

All I can say is, embrace rain. The alternative IS far worse!:)

send some rain here. We're not in a drought, but the more rain we get, the less I have to drag a garden hose up hill to water the maters....

:-D

Damn, you have a point, DA. I hate it when people make sense. ;)

In all seriousness, the farmers are starting to suffer. They're wanting it to calm down a bit. It isn't just the quantity; some of this has been hard and heavy, which has done some damage. (One poor guy in Appleton had his basement collapse, which ruptured his water heater. $15,000 to repair and it wasn't covered by insurance!) About six weeks without the stuff would probably do us some good.

You know, Scratch, I keep yelling at the clouds to go where they're needed, but they ain't listening. I'm not kidding; the customers think I'm slightly cracked but I don't care. Lousy way to run a universe, I tells ya.

Ha! At least your rain doesn't have oil cleanup chemicals mixed in with it. You left Florida just in time.

Yeah, I'm seriously glad that I no longer live on the freaking coast. Though there has been talk of drilling in the Great Lakes. Primus forbid...
