Yeah, got to have time for fun too.    ::thumbsup::

I've been working on my moonlighting gig (BIL's books), running statements, updating depreciation schedules and all that stuff, have to organize a lot more stuff (payroll detail, loans etc) before I can input all that crap into the system.  I think I'll knock it off here soon and have a stogie and a beer in the garage, crank up some tunes...then whip up some spaghetti with hot Italian sausage meatballs and finish off a bottle of Chianti, go back for an after dinner primo...

 ::whoohoo::

Man, I wish I could relax and just have fun!

I do the sound production so I have to hump the gear it, set it up and tweak it. I record each act so there's overhead there. At the end of the show I break it down, pack it up in the van and take it home.

Last season my brother insisted that I delegate some of the labor. I did so and someone walked off with a $400 audio snake so I do it all myself now.

It's not all bad - I do enjoy making things happen and we entertain a bunch of seniors with live music.

Inconvenient weather happens.



Check it out...

The Jet Stream is below Alan's house!   ::speechless::

Not surprisingly, Lake Superior has ice forming up weeks before schedule.  AlGore must be in private plans flying in circles and spewing untold thousands of tons of globullwarmink into the atmosphere to cause this much mayhem, eh?

A week and a half before Thanksgiving and 50% of the nation is covered by snow.

If and when I listen/watch the weather-weenies here, they're all "when's it going to warm up, when's it going to warm up?".

It's been getting down to 20 degrees some nights.  Whoa, right?!  Big freakin' deal -- it's winter!

But, nope, this is North Carolina and if they cain't wear they flip-flops and shorts, that ain't right.  (P.S. They wear 'em out anyway and there's me in shoes w/socks, jacket, scarf and gloves.)

I'm glad I am not the only one irritated by this.  It annoys me on multiple levels.  For one, I hate this assumption that the default condition simply must be sunny and mild.  "So when's it going to warm up?"  If I have my druthers, April.  How's that for an answer?

I also hate the assumption, implicit in the first assumption, that not only should sunny and mild be the default condition, but it simply must be the universally preferred condition too.  In May, sure.  November, December?  Not so much.

I have this working theory that warm, sunny weather coincides with banal, insipid mentalities.  Cold weather, on the other hand, has a purifying and rectifying quality.  Much like myself, cold weather refuses to suffer fools.  I consider Jack Frost to be a personal friend.

Don't even get me started on the "I don't care if it's 20 degrees, I'm wearing my cargo shorts" people.  We're not impressed.  It doesn't make you look tough.  I guess they figure it's some sort of statement, a defiant planting of the flag on behalf of banality?  That's how I interpret it, anyway.

Rant mode off.   ::oldman::

I thought the cold would keep the undesireables out, or at least suppressed...that gets offset by the overly generous (stupid and insane) welfare bennies Minnestupid hands out...

But when it gets really cold it does tend to clamp down on the overall spread of scum...the routine criminality tends to occur in homes, malls and bars...not so much spilling into the streets and into other neighborhoods...

So, I could stand to see more of that purifying effect.   ::praying::
