Is the picture above an example of your photoshop mastery?

Lots of foreboding going on over here about the coming winter.

It’s not helped by news that the Euro-hippies have forced the shutdown of the few remaining coal-fired power power stations to such an extent that we’re hovering around a blackout safety margin in very small single percentage figures.

Thanks, Greenies.

Today, Her Stoatliness and I drove past a (large) local windfarm. There was a high breeze. It was switched off. They have to do that when the wind is strong enough to disperse a gnat’s fart, otherwise they ‘splode.

And people wonder why the Mustelids like the past so much…

We busted out the winter clothes last weekend, we are new Minnesotans.

Had a bit in indian summer here in eastern Canada over the weekend…getting colder and rainier now.

Been seeing quite a few of those fuzzy black and orange/brown caterpillars…does it mean something?

Geenies = Watermellons…green on the outside, red on the inside.

I live in the mountains of Colorado. While tonight the San Luis Valley has its first freeze warning, we were in the 80’s today and the lowest nighttime forecast in the future for us is in the high 40’s. We are still getting tomatoes and the morning glories are still blooming.

I have a feeling that when winter does hit, it is going to be a bugger.

Mind you, our Green Fascists are shutting down every power plant they can, too.

Here in Sarasota, Florida, it cooled off a bit. The high was 86°F or 30°C. Socks weather.

My hypothesis on winter weather forecasting is that as the watermelon warmistas’ red:green ratio tends towards the red end of their spectrum, temperate and more northerly climes are likely to see more white, flaky global warming in the coming winter.

It was 96 here today. On my birthday. IT’S NOT SUPPOSED TO BE 96 ON MY BIRTHDAY.

It’s so very wrong, I’d welcome some Buicks landing nearby.

Nina, you share your birthday with THE UNITED STATES NAVY! HAPPY BIRTHDAY to both of you! Big Badger Boat salute to Nina and the Navy! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_5IH-9lZ7b0

Blargh. We matched the record high of 95 here in Vegas. It’s mid-October for crying out loud. I want summer to die so, so badly.

Happy Birthday, Nina! 🙂

I sure do, Scott! You can tell my caliber of friends by the number of times I saw something about that posted on fb yesterday!

Thanks, Unk. This is the last year of my 50s, and I’m rooting for the next four to go by fast so I can start a loooong retirement.

Subotai, I treasure my memories of the San Luis Valley in CO, which I visited on a road trip down from Denver in ’98. How are The Oldest Town in Colorado ™ and the Great Sand Dunes?

It’s still too damn warm here in Da Swamp as well: 84 F. today (though drier than usual). The weather people on TV keep chortling about a “cold” front for the weekend. Bah. 73 F. as a high, in mid-October, does not qualify as a cold front.

Oh, and happy birthday, Nina.

OT: You would all be proud of me. Someone has been posting Bernie Sanders flyers on windshields outside my office with various talking points about his positions. I took a red marker and under “BERNIE 2016,” I added in big letters “A COMMUNIST IS A COMMUNIST,” and marked “CR*P” next to his “Climate Change” section.

I put it back on my windshield on the sidewalk side, so people strolling by can see it. When I leave work, I’ll put it on someone else’s windshield.

trade ya my winter for yours…. already had 12 inches of snow and was without power for 4 days…. doesnt bode well for january…..

I’m ready for 15F and sunny, but I’ll settle for the first hard frost.

I. Am. Fucking. DONE. With. Mosquitos.

@technochitlin – LOVE the Buick! Complete with Cruiserline Ventiports!

Nina, 16″/50 caliber?
