Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween

Jack

 

This was the lamest Halloween ever. I had a cold the whole time. Bah humbug.

 

I didn't really want to do anything but ended going out because it was Halloween. I should have just stayed home and watched TV or played X Box. Halloween is lame and it always gets really cold or rains or snows on Halloween. The weather was so nice up to and including October 30th, then on the 31st BAM!.. it gets super cold. Man, I had the rapid fire weather changes in Kansas sometimes. Although, it could be worse. I could live in the land of apocalyptic weather, California. Honestly guys, God is punishing you for electing Arnold govenor.

 

It was the same way here in Cali. It was warm all month. In the 90's on some days. Then WHAM! Halloween comes and suddenly it's hailing and freezing outside.

 

Me too

 

Ceno

I thought Cali was all wildfires and earthquakes? Or are you NorCal?

 

Yeah I'm in NorCal, completely different world from SoCal.

 

Weather-wise as well as culturally... which explains why I like NorCal.

 

Diddo. I don't like SoCal.

 

No doubt. San Diego, L.A., Hollywood... what's that? Land of the pretty and rich people, that's what. Well, them and surfers. I'm neither pretty or rich and Hoolie don't surf. I always say I think SoCal needs to slide off into the ocean with the next earthquake so we can make it an independent island nation. But they say it's really NorCal that might fall off or be destroyed (I can't remember which.)

People of Southern California: God is punishing you for your wickedness and horrible Rob Schnieder movies. Fires, earthquakes, floods... can you not see the pattern? Soon tsunamis will scour you from the world leaving a pristine wilderness free of sin and Rob Schnieder, amen!

 

lol.......no Rancid, not everyone in So Cal is rich and snobby, there's still some decent people around here, well except for Arnold.

 

I know, I know. Not everyone in SoCal is horrible but overgeneralizing is more humorus... it's just not as funny if I qualify my statements with something actually resembling the truth.

 

i get ya Rancid, and i like that humor in all your post, sometimes i read them just 'cause i know there's something in there that's going to make me laugh.

 

Good, that's what I'm here for: comic relief and sarcasm... not intelligent, relavant comments... well, okay, sometimes I make intelligent, relavant comments.

 

LOL.......see what i mean,ha!ha!ha!

 

I don't know where all of you live, but here in SW Florida it was 79 or 80 Halloween night.

BTW, we got less trick or treaters this year, probably due to the fact that Halloween was on a Friday night.

Just my two cents.

"I don't know where all of you live, but here in SW Florida it was 79 or 80 Halloween night." Isn't it always around 79 or 80 in Florida?

 

Not really.

In January of this year, it was 33 degrees, with a windchill of 28 degrees when I went to school in the morning.

The coldest it has been down here, since we have been here, was back in 1995, after we had been down here for a year. It was 45 for the high, but it didn't reach that until about 11:30-1 p.m. in the afternoon, and after that, the temperature was dropping the rest of the day. I believe it got down to 28 that night.

It is usually hotter in Illinois, were we used to live, because when I was little, I remember some summers being 100-110 for the high, and 105-115 for the heat index.

That is warmer than down here, but we have a different kind of heat than the Midwest.

My experience with Florida is that it was not as hot as the midwest in temperature alone (maybe between 80-90) and it ws more humid but it was a weird kind of humid where there was a breeze and it always felt like rain and so it was not as bad. To be fair I was in Tampa so it almost always rained at about 2-3 PM. In Kansas it gets to be 98-105 and the humidity is between 80-90 with no breeze. I feel like I want to die in weather like that I much prefer the winter where I can just throw on another coat/blanket and be fine. Below 50 degrees in Florida? Weird, I never would have figured.

 

Isn't Arby's anywhere dirty?

 

I'm kind of impressed by Hardee's thickburger to tell you the truth. I know it can't possibly be as good as it looks in the commercials but it should still be better than McDonald's, Burger King and maybe Wendy's. Hardee's used to be worse than Arby's and of course now that they're worth eating at both of the Hardee's in the MHK have closed and the two on the I-70 between the MHK and Lawrence/Kansas City have closed. (Actually, one closed and the other one became a McDonald's, I think.) Too bad.

 

That's true. The humidity is different here in the south.

During the summer, it is like Tampa, you can almost set your watch, and watch the clouds build up during the morning and early afternoon, and then rain around 2-4 or so, in the afternoon.

The good thing, is when it gets warm in the afternoon, the sea breeze kicks in from the Gulf of Mexico. We live 2-2.5 miles from the beach, so you can actually feel the breeze in the afternoon. The only bad thing, is that cars rust faster down here, due to the salt air, and boats are more of a fuss to put up with, since the salt water eats at the propeller's blades.

BTW, rancidholligan, what does "En Vino Veritas" I know en is "in" or "on", I believe, and "veritas" is truth?

Did you ever see that show that was on ABC early this year?

It was called Veritas, and it was a pretty good show. Too bad they canceled it, though.

Not really. Our local Arby's is clean, and they wear gloves when they make sandwiches. Our McDonald's doesn't wear gloves, though.

En Vino Veritas... In Wine There is Truth. Basically, what it means is that drunk people will tell you what they actually think instead of trying to spare your feeling because they have less inhibition. It's true what you say about the humidity in Florida, I much prefer that to the midwest death humidity.

 

Wow, Halloween... I remember that. That was what, three holidays ago?

 

Yeah, that was forever ago.

But to continue the discussion... Arby's can be really, really dirty... and I don't think I would eat something called a "thickburger"... it just sounds disgusting. Hardee's is owned by Carl Karcher Enterprises, which is Carl's Jr. here in California... so I'm assuming a "thickburger" is what Carl's Jr. calls "The Six Dollar Burger".

There's a great place on Pico and Fairfax in L.A. called Mo' Betta Meaty Meat Burger.

Mmmm.... meaty meat burger.

 

I just wanted to be part of WA history... =)
