Snowpacolypse 2011 is approaching

[RadiomanATL]

I have one of these doohicky's.

It's getting dark outside. 3:30 in the afternoon, but looks like 5:30, right at dusk.

The iceman cometh.

I think I'll go grill something.

That sounds like perfect weather from braising something in the oven - like a brisket or a pot roast.

I grill everything. I'd grill a bowl of cereal if I could.

It's also somewhat a weird tradition that when odd weather is approaching, I grill. I've been out there in thunderstorms, snow, ice, and wind storms.

Hence, I must go satiate a primaeval instinct now, and go cook raw meat over an open fire.

Damn. The Global Warming sure is fierce this year.

Thank God for Global Warming or we would have frozen to death by now.

January of 76 I was at Ft Gordon GA. There was one of the infamous Ice storms. Seemed like within minutes everything had a half inch of ice covering everything. Suddenly there was an explosion and a big puff of Brown smoke came out of one of the small transformers. That puff jumped from pole to pole for about a quarter mile until it hit the main transformers near Signal Towers. Most of Ft Gordon was without power for about 5 hours.

Lots of luck.....

I like bad weather.

Reminds me of Florida, when I worked at a station there. We would "go to the mattresses" whenever a hurricane came through.

According to the weather map, it's supposed to be snowing like a mo-fo here. But nothing yet....

I'm with ya on the grillin' Radio. I do too, when it's warm enough to be standing outside.

That BBQ-U show used to be on TV. I watched it all the time when I lived in Reno. I haven't seen it since I moved back here to Wisconsin.

Anyway, I have a good old friend that lives near you in Albany. I've been throwing around the idea of moving down there.
