We Made It Through

Here in SoCal, every once in a while, you really question the sanity of those who are around you.

About a week ago, New Years Day or so, we started hearing about the monsoon season that was approaching over the weekend.  I have never seen newscast here in LA focused on anything other than crime or celebrities, but... oh yes... BUT... last week, Dallas, Johnny and all the other aptly named meteor-alities were finally getting their face time and were of course drooling at the chance to blow the storm of the century WAY out of proportion.

Last night, I watched the back-to-normal 11:00 news and sure enough, the top headlines followed:

1.) Presidential primary in NH.
2.) "Dance War: Bruno vs. Carrie Ann" premiers.
3.) Dr. Phil goes to see Brittany in the looney bin.
4.) BCS National Championship game.

... oh... yeah... and an afterthought... The largest rainfall in the area was in Claremont which got 6.5 inches...  6.5 inches...?  I have lived in three places that have gotten that in a hour...

You have to love SoCal.


Peace, NcB.

I'm glad you picked up on that also. I was yelling at the tv quite a bit during the news. That was an anti-climatic monsoon season....not a surprise though.
