That's why I aspire to be a meteorologist in Florida. During my four year stint there they were never right unless they said "chance of thunderstorms" which usually always meant at 1pm you'd get about an hour or less of torrential rain and lightening. Then when a hurricane was coming it was like "well we're not sure where it's going to land but it'll be one of the states between Maine and Texas, we'll let you know" then with about 4 hours to go they can "pinpoint" where it's going to destroy. What a bunch of snake oil salesmen! Wish I had a job where I did nothing but guess, and if I was wrong it's not my fault because the weather is uncontrollable.

That's how it was when I lived in Denver. They'd be saying "chance of snow" as I looked out the window and watched the flakes pile up.

Hey! snakeoil salesmen were the real deal. That snakeoil was loaded with opiets and cocaine and all other sorts of narcotics that weren't illegal back then. Wish i was around back then...i'd a made one hell of a lousy cowboy...high all the time.

Believe it or not, we can thank california and the chinese for getting opium illegalized.

And get this...morphine used to be used to treat alcoholism. Now there's good thinkin for ya!

Im' guessin if meth were around back then they'd have used it to treat obesity.

I think i'm gettin off topic here...just spittin' out some of the useless info i got stored up.

I think the weather men in Las Vegas and Phoenix have it easy. Here is the five day forcast.

Monday Hot, Tuesday Hot, Wednesday Hotter than Monday and Tuesday, Thursday Hotter than Wednesday, Friday hottest day of the week so far.

I believe this continues till September?
