On weathermen and "how I became a Navy seal"

I think it's funny that we've had severe storms on 3 of the past 4 days. These storms are not simple, short-lived storms, either, but storms that sweep in, dump ungodly amounts of rain, pack enough wind to blow trees down, have enough lightning to resemble camera flashes at the Super Bowl, and - each time - drops the temperature outside at least 10-15 degrees (if not more). It's only funny to me because the weathermen have been forecasting drier air and fewer storms for days. Heh... Yes, it's the same old joke - that weathermen can't predict the weather, but to be so far off - and all of them in consensus about the forecast - only proves one big point to me: God's world is infinitely complex, and figuring it all out is impossible, even though we can and do make strides in understanding many things.

What? Where did that weather bloggage come from?

Sorry about that.

I've been getting a grip on "Joint Operations" for the PC. Been taking my Navy Seal character (Ghost) on several training missions getting used to the game. Yes, folks, it's another time-robbing multiplayer game, but -so far- it looks good, plays good, and I still like it even though I suck at it. -sigh- Well, maybe I'll follow Kyle's logic and practice, practice, practice 3 hours a day so I can learn my instrument...er...gaming skilz. Um...maybe not.

Band practice is tonight instead of last night. Hopefully, all will go well with that and we'll have no post-work 'grumpiness' or impatience. At least the songs are easy, so things should go by quick.

KEY PHRASES: "Hmmm....you don't have a key, do you? Rats...I didn't think so." "Has ANYONE seen my pressure washer? (cough) Brian?" "When I'm not saving Indonesia from the rebels, I'm earning trophies racing a kart around a track with these kart-eating giant plants."
