Not far off it. Much more rain and we'll be trading in the chariot for an ark.

It's not so bad if the rainfall extends westward into the catchment areas, but if it only hits the coast and runs straight out to sea, it's a bit of a waste.

I take things very literally and don't understand most sarcasm. I don't really "get" "The Onion", either.

A blessed poster topic

Thanks, blessedmom. I am just venting, I guess. I just got terminated from another job because i am physically too slow. Age has wearied me even more. Having AS has nothing to do with this; it's the dyspraxia, and arthritis. Very frustrating. I hope at my age it is not too late to try to retrain, though EI is not in favour of this approach. I am checking into Disability Supports to see if they can help me in the employment side of things.

The Onion is the least of my worries. :roll:

Thanks for responding.

The Onion is a satirical online paper - past headlines have included a religion story about a man who invoked the name of Jesus Christ Almighty several times, after hitting his thumb with a hammer; an op-ed piece on the dangers of electing Barack Obama president (after all, under President Morgan Freeman, the Earth was hit by a comet, and this time, we won't have the late astronaut Robert Duvall to blow up the largest chunk before it can kill everyone on the planet); and of course their weekly horoscope column.

I don't know if the column is made more funny, or less, by our exposure to people who really do think that way...

I have found the Onion to be hysterically funny, from time to time, over the years. Sometimes moreso than others.
