It's like a hurricane here in Arizona right now! Nuts!
The bike path a block over is under about 5 feet of water and it's supposed to rain for the next 3 days.

I flew from Vegas to Phoenix on Tuesday night, and it was one of the worst flights I've had in years (and I fly a lot!). Plane was dropping every 10 seconds, people, drinks, everything was flying around the cabin...
The fat bastard who just downed a Big Mac before boarding lost it and proceeded to fill up two barf bags. Not good! :lol:

    Fun stuff. I just flew from Boston to Seattle via Houston and it was horrible. Then again, it's now sunny and gorgeous in Seattle for my vacation.

    Yeah, I usually think a big drop is kinda fun. Like a rollercoaster without knowing when the drop is coming...:D
    That said, there are times when it sucks.
    1) While in the bathroom - Really gotta focus on the "aim" and make sure you don't pee on your foot. :lol:
    2) While holding a drink - Being spilled on is no fun. I've had drops where the ice in my cup literally came out of the cup, was suspended in air for a second then came crashing down. Pretty cool actually.
    3) If a fat guy is walking in the aisle next to you and you have an aisle seat
    4) People with motion sickness - I never really get motion sickness, but watching a fat bastard barf up his Big Mac and having to smell it until you get off the plane is enough to make you nauseous.

    believe it or not, we don't "need" anything. that is only the spoiled brat in us trying to fill some temporary solution to an emptyness that does not exist.

    You talking to me? Well if you are, it doesn't hail in northern australia where I am. Down south it does. That's why I've never seen hail before.

    This probably isn't wacky to a lot of people, but it is to me because I've never seen it! It's snowing right now (always a bit of an event here anyhow), and the flakes are MASSIVE. Like, giant fluffs of snow, some a few inches wide! It's like it's raining soap suds!
