Remember all the hoopla about Global Warming? Remember earlier this month I was saying I had been golfing? Fuggedabouit!!
I arose to the windows shaking from a vicious gale. A peek at the outdoor thermometer revealed 0.8 F (that right! zero point 8 degrees -- good thing for the "point 8"). With wind! Maybe 25 miles per hour. They've even closed or delayed some schools so the kids don't have to stand out waiting on a bus (I sure don't remember "cold days" when I was a kid). Anyway, I looked up the windchill scale and I may have misread the grid but I think it said minus 272 Kelvin which would make it feel about 1 degree higher than absolute zero, or the point at which everything, even at the molecular level, is frozen! Again, good thing for that point 8.
Oh, and the sonic boom you heard this morning? It was was created by the speed at which my nuts receded into by body cavity upon stepping outside. Brrrrrr..........

Hurray Global Warming
January 3rd, Southern New England and I'm going to play golf this afternoon. We just had the second warmest December in history and this Saturday is looking to set a record. So far, barely a snow flurry. Until this year, the latest I ever played was December 15. At least as far as my golf game is concerned, "Hurray Global Warming", lol.
(Added at 3pm) -- Back! Damn I played shitty. Real shitty. Alas, though, its better to play shitty golf on Jan 3 than to be out scraping ice off the windshield wiper blades. Plus, now we're that much closer to spring.
