Here is the chair I was sitting in last weekend. I was wearing shorts, drinking a beer, and surfing the intareweb from my notebook:

I have crafted a haiku to summarize my feelings:

Dear mother nature:
Stop with the goddamn winter.
Enough is enough

That's the cold air swooping through the area, down from the mountains (Rockies).

You'll be golfing this afternoon ;)

ahhh
a procooling barbeque, for chilly burgers ?

were I up North
would not be long
'till I was gone

Thats what happened here in Florida...

Minus the snow.

The news was saying "Its gonna rain like a mofo" all week.

Whats it do?

It gets freak'n cold instead.

It was 84F here and sunny and dry... then 1 hour later it was 45 and raining...

WI sucks some times.. it gives ya a taste of the good life and them smacks you down. by the time its nice out again, the bugs will be out and it will be about 400% humidity and like 90Deg...

So you're saying it turns into FLorida?

Yep Florida, but without all the old people and retards who cant vote.

Spring weathers the same here in Idaho. It's nice, warm, and sunny one minute then WHAM!! it's cold and snowing. This morning it was nice and sunny and now it's cold and raining:cry:

You mean you've got stupid tourist too that cause accidents?

Yeah the weather's been sucking the past couple of days... no snow though (lucky) rained a lot today.

We had snow a few days ago too, and since it's only mid-april I still expect more again. After mid-may the chance for snow starts to go down pretty good, till around late-september or early-october when it will start again.

But then you get the unusual years. I've personally seen snow fall at least once in every month of the year (though not all in the same year, but if it happens before I die I won't be too suprized) If you think that sucked, just wait till you get August snow.

Well being in the capitol we get tons of "townies" people from the burbs who drive VERY reckless and agressive, but do it at 5 Mph under the speed limit.

I so ****ing hate those people.

5? They drive 10-15 MPH under the limit...and thats the natives!

Is that a view of a big conrete wall?

At least the beer won't get warm. :p Raining and cold here....:(

Well on a more cheerful note...

Here in Houston, Texas, we're enjoying 80 degree weather, with comfortable 60'ish nights.

:D

(but in a month or two, it'll be hotter than hell:mad: )

Didnt even notice the big wall in the back yard... whats the deal with that? that suckers like 18ft tall, you building your own "prediential palace"?

It's a highway sound barrier: pHaestus must be near the T-Can (trans-canadian highway).

Do you leave near a highway :)

It's not a highway sound barrier; there arent even any highways in this part of the world. It is a mall; the alley for trucks is between my fence and that wall. I think that's a Zellers to be more specific. It is really convenient to be able to go out back gate into mall with wal-mart, radio shack, eb games, safeway, etc etc. It isn't that noisy either so no worries.

Yeah, I'd have guessed it was the Trans Canada, but then Zellers has never really been my style of choice. I can say if I design a mall I'd make even the trucking side look sexier than a sound barrier ;)

Yeah the convenience must be nice sometimes, I have to get on the Trans Can just to get anywhere decent - only for liek 5 min. mind you, but still - I can't walk the minimum required speed of 60Km/hour :P

I was wondering how that big swamp cooler was hovering over the highway. :D

What you dont have swamp coolers zooming past all the time on your freeways?
:p

Nah, our freeways are boring here. It is the talk of the town when a Furnace goes by. :D
