Until about a week and a half ago, I thought MI was going to be proof that “global warming” isn’t so bad. 50-degree days, no sn*w, nice sun…in other words, decent weather, at least for December and early Jan. Here I even had my hopes up for NO winter! That FL’s warmth would come and stay with me, since those evil socialists in Mountain View were interfering with me getting down to FL… (webmasters will “get it” )

But then, like a psychotic who suddenly breaks free of a delusion, MI remembered that it’s NOT a Southern state! *Cries*

Last week or so, the temps plunged, then this week an ice storm showed up, and now there’s even some sn*w outside. The water I had cooling outside became a popsicle.

In other words, it’s back to the sucky, rotten-weathered state it usually is, and my desire to get to FL is on in spades!!! Ooooh, I’d love to be there, in that No-Winter state! It’ll be so laugh at the lousy weather in MI, while watching the misery on the Weather Channel–from the comfort of my lanai in the 80-degrees!

But first I just need to sell a few thousand orders’ worth of stuff…

I picked up on this meme today from Sunflower, and it looks like fun so I figured I’d play, too!

Appetizer
What comes to mind when you see the color orange?
A big orange square in monitor light. Don’t ask me where I’ve seen that…maybe one of those color-based personality tests?

Soup
Did you ever get in trouble while you were in school? If so, what was it for?
Smoking (tobacco)! As if they thought that a suspension would be a deterrant. Here–break our silly rule and alleviate your nicotine fit…and we’ll…GIVE YOU TIME OFF!! Oh, the horror of not having to make up an excuse for the next 3 days’ absence *croco tears*!!

Needless to say, I still smoke…

Salad
Which topping(s) make up your perfect pizza?
My perfect “pizza” is made of various forms of chocolate. Maybe candy crunches for a topping? The regular kind of pizza, on the other hand, sucks.

Main Course
Do you believe in UFOs/aliens/etc.? Why or why not?
Of course. Why would I not believe in myself?

Dessert
What color is your bedspread/comforter/quilt?
I don’t have any of those.

I found that the main site for these is:
Friday’s Feast

Lately several local school districts have been hit by freedom fighters.

“Freedom fighters?”

Yes, in my book, they are Freedom Fighters(TM)!

Of course, the school districts are acting like the kids who let all the air out of their bus tires–forcing the districts to close while they pumped air back in–are some kind of Terrorists(TM). Even though the tires weren’t even damaged!

Get this, some district was telling the TV stations that it “cost” something like $1 million!! Come on, GET REAL!!! It cost $0! That’s right, zip, zilch, nada…well maybe the cost of an egg on their face! What’s a little face-soap worth. $0.0001? Ha ha I scoff derisively at their phony math. What they’re really whining about, is that they paid the teachers even though the district had to close. But at the bottom of it all, they are just mad that they HAD TO close! At the demand of some brave kids who jumped their precious little fence at the bus garage!

Yeah I am lovin’ this.

Even better, at least 4 districts have been hit.

The only bad thing at all is, they haven’t gotten around to shutting down the worst district of them all (worst for control-freakness and dictatorialism, that is…): The one I went to when I was still in school!! And that one not only deserves flat tires, they deserve multiple strikes! It would be Sooooo great to see the big W*** L**** District impotently having to shut and have it get on TV that they were owned…
