Drudge is linking to a story about the mysterious FOG now. It was foggy at my house last night, and smelled like smoke! But that could have been because I had my wood stove going, and one of my burn piles going. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-14239417/thick-fog-mystery-chemical-smell-reports.html

Not actually OLD TIM. The really OLD Tim would be showing us torch maps and talking about his hopes for a warm March to be quickly approaching. He's pissy though. That's for sure. Somebody send him a sunlamp and a mai tai.

I haven't done any winterization on my property. Even the hoses are still out and connected to the faucets, that's how mild its been. In other news I saw an article today where Armie Hammer said "the worm is turning." Not sure what he meant by that, I did not click the bait, but it sounds promising!

Recalling Fort Worth’s May Storm of 1993- Hoping we’ll not see another soon. I lost several windows, a skylight, and a roof. Friends had their car destroyed as well. I was lucky. Hailstones the size of your fist pounded us for up to 10 minutes. truly frightening. Animals were terrorized and injured in the fields and back yards. What will this coming Spring bring?

Ironically... @Timmyalso travels all the time so rule #1 is quite accurate! I know we joke all the time about me traveling being a good sign because we missed part of the December 2021 fun... but the vast majority of the time we just miss out on gloom and rain and it's so worth it to escape.
