Weather nuts who want to see a Category 5 hurricane, as long as it makes landfall where they don't live. If it doesn't effect them, it's fine.

As well as the ones that want the 100 year blizzards to hit - of course don't let them lose electricity or have to dig a vehicle out of drifts to get to a job that actually pays bills. Severe weather is great - unless it targets you. -------------------- Never too old to have a happy childhood!  .......... ..........Don't put an age limit on your dreams! |

People who automatically assume that age gives them wisdom.....
This is no more true than saying that a young person cannot have knowledge.... Some people have the ability to assimilate information and others are 'thick as a brick' all their lives... -------------------- Perception is everything

TV Weather - not because they are frequently wrong.
But every storm that decides to rain or snow becomes the next 'Storm of the Century' We are in 2013 - the 13th year of the Century - and we have had AT LEAST 20 'Storms of the Century'. Storms are storms - some will damage property, cause closings and have people die in them. They happen every year - sometimes stronger and sometimes weaker. The hype seems to have increased since NBC bought 'The Weather Channel' - now it seems that NBC & TWC go all out to ramp up the superlatives whenever a storm system presents itself. -------------------- Never too old to have a happy childhood! ....................Don't put an age limit on your dreams! |

Posters who don't get that you don't have to post...or at least play the game properly....
 Like not bothering to look a word to see if it is a 'real' word DOH! And posting on what are you listening to...a TV show! Why not open a thread of what you are watching on TV... The listening thread(i think) is about music etc. You may be bored....but don't bore us with your lazy, extraneous posts...... -------------------- Perception is everything

Calling The Bank
My daughter called me at work to say I was to phone Josh at the bank. I called my bank and the operator asked me what Josh's last name was and I explained that he hadn't left his surname. When she asked for his department, I said I didn't know. "There are 1500 employees in this building, ma'am," she advised me rather curtly. After a few more brusque comments, I asked her for her name. "Danielle," she said. "And your last name?" I asked. "Sorry," she replied, "we don't give out last names." -------------------- Never too old to have a happy childhood! ....................Don't put an age limit on your dreams! |
