Winter Weather and the End of the H.S. Basketball Season.

Here in Portland it's going to be in the mid to high 60's for the next 10 days at least, with light rain only on one of those days. All the other days it will be cloudy, partly cloudy or partly sunny.

Here at my assisted living center there have actually been people sitting outside for hours at a time the past few days.

You're starting to sound like George Carlin!

OK Billy, you're up!

Shut up Mark Padgett. This winter, I have been putting more gasoline in my snowblower than in my car. I'm really getting tired of walking the snowblower down to the gas station every few days.

Even though I know what a snowblower is since I grew up in Chicago, my kids have never seen one since they grew up here in Portland.

Oh well, time for breakfast. Maybe I'll eat out on the patio this morning.

BTW - I'm wearing a short sleeved White Sox T-shirt today.

Once again, and you really deserve it this time: Shut up.

Along those same lines, my Catholic middle school assigner retired to Florida a few years ago. While we're up here in Connecticut, freezing our you-know-whats off, he's sitting on a beach, wiggling his toes in the sand, with an umbrella adult beverage in his hand, assigning games, on his laptop, using Arbiter.

He can shut up too.

Uh, no. BTW - we're expecting highs in the low 70's this weekend.

Sunday will be a heat wave in Connecticut. It might, if we're lucky, hit 40 degrees F. Global warming can kiss my a**.

Mark, Jr., and I umpired a women's college softball DH today between Rowan College (of New Jersey) and Hibbing C.C. (of Minnesota) in Titusville, Florida. It was a balmy 75F and not a cloud in the sky.
