Got confused with hurricane names.

Does the shit storm have a name?

Got hit by 2 hurricanes this year ! Currently looking at almost a foot of snow.

Just a Chinese hoax!

Been studies done. The weather is not more extreme right now. Drought, tornado, hurricane, wildfires, snow, floods ... In any sense. Everything is pretty average right now. According to actual government sites with graphs that are not doctored.

All academic until YOU are personally effected.

As a home owner for 50 years, I filed my first claim against my homeowners insurance this year...minor roof and siding damage from a hailstorm. After my $1000 deductible, the insurance company nickeled and dimed me claiming depreciation on items I must get repaired. Not a pleasant experience.

I feel sorry for those that suffered substantial damage from natural disasters like hurricanes, floods, tornados, and wildfires. Financially they will take a beating. Emotionally, they may never recover.

So, all the climate-change deniers and fossil fuel sycophants can keep a few extra bucks in their pockets instead of looking for ways to mitigate natural disasters.....until it happens to them.

Everything depends on economics. Generating electricity with wind and solar is becoming less expensive than coal. Utilities begin using and installing wind and solar collectors along with battery storage, thank you Elon.

Then economics comes back again and the fossil fuel industry starts lining the pockets of our elected officials telling them of job losses and such. Our esteemed politicians began to pass laws to subsidize fossil fuels and penalize wind and solar. We all choke a bit because we cannot breathe, we buy more bottled water because of the coal ash that the government allows to enter our streams, our utility bills go up to cover the costs the fossil fuel industry pays to politicians and everyone is happy.

Stop having kids cause there will be little left for them, but the economics work.

Daryl Dragon, the Captain of Captain and Tennile, died at age 76 today.

Famous wrestling announcer, Mean Gene Okerlund, died at the age of 76 today.

And actor/daredevil, Bob Einstein/Super Dave Osborne, died at age 76 today.

Not only is it a proven scientific fact that famous people die in 3’s but they are now passing at the same age!

Yikes!!! I'm 76.

Last week at this time we were in a deep freeze -25 degrees wind chills in the -40 to -60 range. Well over a foot of snow total. Snow banks 4-5 feet tall. Temps over the weekend in the 40's. Snow for all practical purposes has evaporated. Down pour at the moment with some lightning. Supposed to freeze overnight. Winter advisory for the commute to work tomorrow morning. Icy conditions. 36 degrees later in the afternoon. More rain and icy conditions for Wednesday. Climate change is a figment of our imaginations I guess.

A Cleveland legend, The Ghoul, passed away.

Saw Aerosmith live tonight in Vegas. It was fantastic. I was shocked. These guys are 70+ and they still put on a great show, and sound better than ever. I am more of a metal head kind of guy, but this has got to be one of the 3 best concerts I ever saw.

Saw Aerosmith in 1981 with REO Speedwagon .

Just went back and looked it up. It was actually 1975 and I saw Aerosmith, REO Speedwagon and Slade.

Rusty, when I arrived here Tiger was 15-1, so I slapped 20 bucks down on him for shits and giggles. Just won 300 bucks.

I saw REO with Foreigner way back in the day. But first time seeing Aerosmith.

Way to go on Tiger ! One of the greatest days in golf and sports history !
