The Polar Vortex Thing Sounds too "Wag the Doggish" for me
The Jazz Patriot ^ | Jan 7, 2014 | Tom Wholley

Posted on 01/07/2014 10:22:05 AM PST by jazzpatriot

The country is under attack by a record breaking cold wave with subzero temperatures we haven't heard about since, well...the first half of the twentieth century, which must seem strange to all you well coddled millennials out there, but yes....it use to get really...really cold when I was growing up in the 1950s.

And wait until you hear what it was like when my father was growing up in the 1920s and the local salt water river that flows into the city from the Atlantic froze solid. But I know its hard to conceive of something like that when all you ever learned from science class was the importance of "recycling our trash" because of the evil oil companies and those stupid conservatives.

Calcutta Clipper is a figment of coach Denny Green’s imagination.

I try not to be a grammar cop, but when someone with a p*ss-poor attitude like that jerk pops up, it's hard not to pull the trigger.

I'm going to write a scathing blog post about this, expose this outrage.

I saw Warner Todd Huston by the freeway with his "will blog for food" sign today, perhaps you could get some pointers from him.

Please post it in the bloggers forum.

An expose' of this magnitude surely will qualify as breaking news.

I cite historical precedent:

Redirecting traffic away from FR to your own blog for more of your own blog hits is often the goal of some of these amateur writers. It’s rude at minimum and a raid on established sites to attract their hard earned site members away.

It’s a learning curve, but FReepers like old poop humblegunner are the best at sorting the sheep from the goats. I had my “shut up and learn” moments too. It gets kind of fun to watch them work, but at being true blue, old-poop-iron-pants, humblegunner is the cap on the oak tree.

As shibumi says, “*Humblegunner is LEGION.”

Oh my God! I had no idea this was just another name for Alberta Clippers.

Basically, just a big dip in the jet stream over the US. The more narrow the dip, the more wild the weather. There were times this past summer where the jet stream went above the Great Lakes. In this event, it dipped well down into the south.

As shibumi says, “*Humblegunner is LEGION.”

I've been called many things around here.

There was one blogger that thought I was a community log-on for a group
(Soros-funded) plot to force him to post his material in full, thereby silencing him.

I know, don't expect it to make sense.

Oh, baby, I get it! If anyone had it coming,......

Attitude is a calling card, for sure. But, nice catch on your part and impeccable comedic timing to boot.

LOL that’s for sure!

More than once when I wanted something fixed in a thread I posted, they fixed it but at the same time moved it out of the sidebar I had put them in.

So I just left my mistakes after that.

Mean mods....JUST KIDDING! (notice I didn’t ping them...)
