    This is a screencap from a local news station last Saturday. I don't think the windchills were officially that low on Sunday, but it felt pretty cold outside the Metrodome- waiting and waiting and waiting for the NFL security. It just looks pretty ridiculous to see numbers like that. image

    I did, however, spend some time today pouring over some token books which I have not done in some time. image

    "I was once told that there are two seasons in Minnesota. Winter and August."

    I've always been amused by such comments regarding relative weather conditions from across the country. Here in Maine we have come up with a few, ourselves:

    "Summers in Maine are quite short. Last year I think it was on a Tuesday".

    And comedian Jud Strunk once said:

    "In Maine we make love and fish. And generally the lakes are frozen".

    Mission accomplished

    Zach's first fish is a Lizard Fish from San Diego Bay.

    So I take his catch, and I use it for live bait for a halibut.

    I get hit hard and farmed it, dang. So I missed a huge halibut and lost my son's first fish in the process image oooops

    A very fun day .....

    High of about 68-70° here today in my part of So. Ca. Supposed to be 50 MPH wind gusts tonight-Monday though + fire warnings because it's so dry. Plus, we're sitting right over the San Andreas Fault here, so there's always a potential earthquake threat looming underneath our feet. image

    It was a sultry +2 in Northern NJ yesterday morning.

    I was once told that there are two seasons in Minnesota. Winter and August.

    In CT, the seasonal road conditions are delineated as being Winter and "under construction" >>

    In the Tampa Bay area it made it to a cool 72 this afternoon. I'm pretty sure in the next few days we'll be in the freezing temps though according to the weatherman.

    Southern California has been even warmer than usual for early winter for the past several weeks,
    inland a few miles from the Pacific, clear and sunny daytime temperatures are in the low 70's with light breezes,
    at night down into the high 40's. We played outside all day in shorts and bare feet yesterday.

    Was 16° here in Southeast Ga this morning with a windchill supposedly in the mid-single digits. The highs today are in the low-30's. It's not as cold as I thought it was going to be, but I can't remember the actual air temp being this cold in my 36 years of life. Another round of teen temps tonite and supposed to be in the lower 70's this weekend. I thought about bringing the goats in last night to sleep in the guestroom but the wifey wouldn't have that. They were fine this morning.

    Y'all up north, stay bundled up.

    California may have its fruits and nuts, but you can not beat the weather.

    SF Bay Area is where I reside and last month and this month the day time highs have been in the 60's for the most part.

    Jealous?

    We could use some rain/snow however.

    << <i>i find it odd that certain people can begin a thread that has zero to do with coins and it gets bashed, and this one is well received, is there any explanation for this ? >>



    Numismatists are generally lonely people. Not all, but generally. They starve for human contact and sense of community. Coin discussions alone don't always fill that need. So even though they know the rules, desperation will drive some to openly defy the rule and reach out to others. Other lonely people will merely circumvent the rule, thus:

    Lonely member 1: "My cat, Bonky, is ill. I've had him for 15 years. I live alone and he's been my closest companion forever. He's the best cat that ever lived and I don't know what I'll do if he doesn't make it. Post a coin to cheer me up."

    Lonely member 2: "God bless you, I know how you feel. I lost my cat, Trinkets, to kidney failure last year. He was 20 and I'd had him since he was a kitten. Here's my 1970 Roosevelt dime in VF30. I hope Bonky feels better. Feel free to message me privately."

    Lonely member 3: "Can we keep this coin-related, please?"

    Lonely member 4: "You cold, heartless person. How dare you criticize Lonely member 1 just for reaching out for solace. We're a community, you know. There's more to life than just coins. Lonely member 1, here's a pic of my Alaska state quarter. Alaska was the setting for 'Call of the Wild,' which, as you know, had a dog in it. Dogs and cats don't always get along."

    And so on, until the thread is killed or mercifully runs its course. I like the coin-related rule; if it weren't in place the forum would be clogged with "I'm having a cheeserburger for dinner" threads. I think the site owners know that it's impossible to restrain human nature, and accept the odd off-topic thread as a cost of doing business.

    West of Atlanta when we headed south for the FUN show it was 5 this morning. To beat all the power flicked off momentarily 4 times before we left. So now I'm sitting here in Orlando hoping I won't come home to a flooded house. Left the water dripping but am on a well. If the power goes out I'm screwed. I have an oversized heat/air system in my house as for what's called for and woke up to a house at 65 rather than the usual 70. image It was a balmy 50 when we arrved in Orlando this afternoon!
