Yeah, that actually does sound like a pretty good job. Although, then I'd be forced into conversations about the weather all the time. I have a friend who has a habit of going on and on about the weather, and he's incredibly boring. I wonder how much meteorologists make?

Meteorologists get all the babes.

I think it's their sly method of seduction via innuendo. For example, "The barometric pressure isn't the only thing that's rising right now, baby. By which I'm implying, blood is flowing into and elongating my genitals."

my ex (bless him) was a meteorolgist - he used to talk about colpuscian rays and heilechen shines (or something like that).

Your lines are a lot funnier Laughing

I've heard Meteoroligists pretty much guess at the weather and hope they get it right. I guess those'd be educated guesses. Some of the ones I've seen on TV are pretty dorky-- But, they are always chipper-chipper.

As for getting the babes...are you sure? What babe wants to date a cheery guy who uses words like "precipitation" or who gesticulates wildly to show the movement of air currents?

But isn't weather the safe topic, especially among strangers?

I talk about it when I want to avoid certain topics (not always, as in posting it here, because everyone is scattered to and fro)...Plus it's so convenient to blame things on the weather.

Izzie, when you say "bless him"...you know, in the the south of the U.S. they have an expression "bless her/his heart", which is a friendly way of saying they're pathetic. So is that what you mean too? Cause your ex sounds like he might have been a little buttoned up?

Hey there

Over here we use it as an endearing expression. (The ex is actually a good guy)

So if I say "bless you" - don't think I'm calling you pathetic ok Shocked Laughing












(bless you)

How do remember? Yesterday, when the stuff was coming down a few people made similar observations about snow falls so far this year.

Yes, a very american southern gal thing is to say something like; "she just wasn't ever given any good sense, bless her heart"-so the little catty zinger is followed by a loving little pat so to speak
