The weather lady is retarded

June 20th, 2009

Here’s what she says,

“Happy Saturday! It looks like this will be the one day that the threat of any storms or even a cloud will be not an issue. Expect temperatures to heat from the upper 60s this morning to the upper 80s by this afternoon with dewpoint remaining in the 50s and low 60s making it feel pretty comfortable. Winds will remain light. Enjoy your Saturday, a threat of thunderstorms returns Sunday afternoon and plenty of heat next week with our next widepread shot of storms on Wednesday.”

#1 - WHY is it that she never says shit like this in sub-zero February? I know, I know, it’s cold out. But this is MINNESOTA. And as I’ve said before, if you don’t like it, MOVE! I never see this idiot weather lady posting “Happy ____day” when it’s 40 degrees in October, either. Or April, for that matter. Nope. She only does it when it’s over 75F degrees out.

#2 - Since when is RAIN THAT WE NEED DESPERATELY a threat? We got um..like two rain showers in April, and perhaps a couple since then. All told, that’s…. Hey! My lawn is crispy and brown. Wonder why?

#3 - That’s all. I just hate weather bitches who suffer from a dependency on fair weather to get by. This is beyond your typical, “seasonal affective disorder”. It’s more like fair-weather bias.

I dunno. All I know is I should probably shut up because although I am okay with Winter, I adore Spring and Fall, I despise most of the hot summer days, especially if humidity is up there.

On days like that, you can usually find me inside with the fan and/or central a/c running.

I guess I just prefer cooler temps. Maybe it’s cause I’m one hot mama!

Blowing off the dust, part II

May 30th, 2009

…so anyway, as I was saying…yeah, there’s a lot of old stuff around here.

Which brings me to wonder.  Do people read old posts on blogs? I suppose only if they are good, right? Well, my writing has always been horrible, so no chance of that happening anytime soon, I guess.

The other thing I hate about having an old, old, old, blog is that many of the posts in it are not categorized.  I take some time once every blue moon and go through them to categorize the many old unsorted posts, but then I find also that there are hundreds without titles!

See, back in the day (before things like Blogger.com, etc.), there was no such thing as comments, categories, even “posts” and “titles”.  You just did it all yourself.  About the time Blogger.com came out, there was a way for me to import posts from my journal (no one had called it a ‘blog’ - short for ‘weblog’, yet, until Blogger.com came along).

And even early Blogging sites/’tools did not have categories, comments, and sometimes post titles.  Everyone got super-excited when Blogger.com came out with Draft saving and then it was like a huge milestone when they came out with the ability to change the date of a post.

Anyway, I guess my point of this whole post was, yes I have a great, old, dusty blog, full of wonder and fun.  But it’s hard to enjoy because its antique-nes is making it hard to integrate into today’s systems.

Blast from the past

Here are a couple posts you might enjoy…

Happy 3rd birthday to my blog!

Blowing off the dust…

May 20th, 2009

To show you how truly old and decrepit this blog really is…

It used to be called “day lee” (a play on words, duh!) back when I used to actually post daily.  Then I changed my tag line to “the day lee misadventures”.  Too cute *barf*!

Anyhoo… the following links show the evolution of this blog (in no certain order, but then I suppose that cancels out use of the word, ‘evolution’. Oh, well!):

from September 11, 2001

Plain Jane version, circa 2004

Circa 2002

Circa 2003 - II

2001 revisited

Circa 2002 II

Circa 2003

Circa 2001

The only real differences between these is the colors and some of the links not working.

The fact that practically no one ever read or commented on my blog hasn’t changed…much.

I believe most, if not all, of the posts contained in these links have long been imported into the current site, so if you want to read older schtuff, feel free to click on the drop-down menu here on this site, labeled, “Archive” and enjoy!

PS - Here’s my crappy old guestbook, too! From back in the day, way before comments were invented! That’s right. Everyone had a guestbook for people to leave their opinions, links, warm fuzzies, etc. on.


A deception - the new world order: Very important video to watch

May 17th, 2009

A hard-hitting film that completely destroys the myth that Barack Obama is working for the best interests of the American people. The Obama phenomenon is a hoax carefully crafted by the captains of the New World Order. 
He is being pushed as savior in an attempt to con the American people into accepting global slavery. We have reached a critical juncture in the New World Order’s plans. and only by exposing the con can we help to save freedom in America. 
The Obama Deception is not about Left or Right: it’s about a One World Government. The international banks plan to loot the people of the United States and turn them into slaves on a Global Plantation. Covered in this film: who Obama works for, what lies he has told, and his real agenda, and how his initial appointments and actions prove he serves the corporate oligarchs, not the American people.
If you want to know the facts and cut through all the hype, this is the film for you.
