ME: Thank Coriolis for this rain!
Well...the coriolis effect, the angle of incidence (sunlight), the hydrological cycle, the moon's effect on Earth...and the symphony of naturalism plays on...
Now, I shall sit back with a tall rum and coke (damn you hot Baccardi girl at the liquor store), and enjoy the aftermath.
But shouldnt they have cursed 'god' for witholding the rain for months if he is the weather wizard!
I know it only ever gets good things attributed to it.
Do you think I could get my wife to take this view about me?
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
