We were woken up by a thunderstorm. In the Bay Area. They're amazingly rare; less than half a dozen in the last decade, and perhaps one or two in my lifetime before that (another 38 years).
Quite a spectacular way to wake up! Unfortunately, it must have been around 2:00 am, so NobodysWife disapproved. -5.
EDIT: And dancing nekkid in thunderstorms is a time-honored family tradition!

I concur. It's a lovely 62* and overcast right now with no rain in sight for three more days.

Ah, the things you end up saying as a parent that you never, ever in your life imagined saying:
NH: Impus Major, come here please.
IM: Yeah?
NH: See this? It's a new apple season, and these are "Pink Lady" apples. They are called that because they are pink inside. When you bite into this apple, it will be pink. It is NOT poison! Please keep this in mind.
IM: OK. Thanks, Dad!
Nothing like having to reassure your hopelessly-underweight son about every possible unusual food situation.
And the sad thing? Once he knows it's not poison, he'll eat anything. Beef tongue, snails, raw oysters, pate, crickets, whatever. As long as he knows it's not poisonous, he'll eat it.
Why is that sad? A not picky eater is a great thing!

I think the same thing about the guy who looked at a potato and said;
"Man, I REALLY need a (alcoholic) drink. I think I'll ferment this potato and see what I get!"
FYI- I am aware that a potato is one of the easiest things on earth to ferment. I only say this because I do NOT think that vodka is an especially tempting alcoholic beverage. :P
Sort of like the thought of eating uncooked oysters does not make me salivate. ;P

"Well, that smells and tastes awful, and is clearly rotten. F*** it, let's see what happens!"

By the time people started making vodka out of potatoes, the recipe for making vodka from grains was centuries old. It was just application of the knowledge: sugar = can be fermented and distilled into vodka.

I do wonder about the person who invented brandy.
"Wine's good, but I'm not getting drunk fast enough. Let's put it through a distillery."
That makes perfect sense to me.

My favorite story ever about such things was once again from my extremely blunt and intentionally-offensive friend.
So he was at a bar on the road, thus in his suit and tie, and a woman walked up to him
Woman: So, how much do you make a year?
Friend: I make $170,000. Do you spit or swallow?
Woman: WHAT?!?!?!?!
Friend: I asked, "Do you spit or swallow?" Like when you're giving a guy a blow job, do you spit or swallow?
Woman: I... I... can't believe you just asked me that!
Friend: Oh, I'm sorry. I thought we were having a refreshingly honest conversation about two things we cared about.
She stormed off and told all of her friends about him, leaving him to finish his drink in peace.

Seems a fair exchange. Asking someone how much money they make is about equally personal and rude, in my opinion.

And it's up to 70* and partly cloudy and very breezy. Got to spend half my lunch break outside due to needing to make a quick shopping run and not feeling like coming back inside the office immediately. It was awesome.
It also means my drive tonight should be surprisingly pleasant. No worries of cold or rain.

How do you hurry people along, without being an a%+~+%&, carry something really heavy seeming in one hand the whole time, saying "oh no, no problem at all" either guilt or machismo will take hold.
And I get a workout in the process, not to mention making them feel bad, which is always a plus, when you're making way below a living wage (which would make me angrier if I worked full time).
