If I Was 40 Years Younger....

If I was 40 years younger, maybe I'd pursue a career in meteorology.  All the technology at your fingertips would be cool.  Dragging your finger across a screen to create a "storm front"...  Predicting something that everyone wants to hear... Accuracy isn't a problem.  Where else can you screw up half the time and still keep your job?

One thing I WOULDN'T do is get all excited when some kind of severe weather is approaching...  The current crop of weather folks get downright orgasmic if snow or rain is in the forecast!  I certainly wouldn't interrupt your favorite program to give you every minute detail of a thunderstorm.  And I wouldn't be so arrogant as to take credit for a nice day, like I had anything  to do with it.

Truth be told, we've always had weather and we always will.  If it's cold out, I'll wear a coat.  If it's going to snow, I'll have the shovel ready.  If it's raining, I'll take an umbrella.  If it's hot, I'll turn on a fan. If it's gonna get severe, I'll take precautions.

So calm down, Mr (or Miss) Weatherperson.  Trust me...we can handle it.
