70% rain chance yesterday. Not a drop.  100% chance for this morning.  Not a drop.  I can predict where my dog will lay his next yard rocket better than these guys can with the weather.
But they have the Doppler 450!  Amazing how this is the one area where technology really hasn't improved.  We have great satellite pics of what happened in the past but the prediction stuff is complete fiction.  I say we just stick to the almanac.

There was a pretty good SNL skit once with Ashton Kutcher as a news anchor giving the weather man the business about getting a forecast wrong. The weather guy fires back about how he's the only one there who has to predict the future, and asks him if there are going to be any murders in the next day. Funny stuff.

Short list for today's history since Chip is vacationing and it is a memorable day for me: (May 11)

1)  Would be  my father's 101st birthday, smoked 50+ cigars a week and drank plenty of Old Taylor bourbon living to be a few months shy of 90.

2) Nations Oldest WW II Veteran, Richard Overton,  is 109 today, smokes 12 cigars a day along with several shots of whiskey first one each day being in his coffee.  and has smoked cigars since he was 18.
       * On his 100th birthday the centtenarian was interviewed by a TV reporter. “Sir, Congratulations and Happy Centenary Birthday”. “Sir, are you able to go out and walk on your own? With a sarcastic smile the old man replied, “Well young man, I certainly can walk better today than what I could a hundred years ago”.

3)  On this day in 1981 the great Reggae Singer Bob Marley died from cancer.   Bob would be 70 today.  Bob also smoked a lot but did not live a lengthy life.  Guess marijuana is not as good for you as cigars and whiskey.
Moral to that story!

You can say that.  Kids wound up not getting to bed until almost 11.  Then my BiL stayed over for about another hour.  Then I had to watch Game of Thrones...
