Blogger 365 Day 92 - It's here and almost here

     The clock continues to tick down on events that have been unfolding for weeks now, and it is just about time to pull back the curtain and let everything be revealed.  Just mere hours away now and I am trying hard to keep everything in until then.  Not that there haven't been enough clues left strewn about for anyone that has been paying attention, but it would require seeing the whole board and not just parts of it, and not that many people were even privy to the whole board let alone have been paying attention to it.  How things will ultimately play out is anyone's guess, I am sure some people will be pissed, some even at me which I can live with, others may not be bothered at all.  I just know when this wraps up my life will be significantly easier, and that is good enough for me.

      Rather than just talk in circles again though I will add a couple of updates, first there is a new book on the shelf to the right and all I can say about it is that is it funny as hell, one of the funniest books I may have ever read and second a milestone has been reached.  After finding a $20 bill the other day I can now say that the change meter has officially cracked the $500 plateau, it now sits at $504.58.  I guess the next milestone will be $1000.

     Anyway, I am getting some early bed rest this evening, I have to be in very early, like 6:30am early and I want to be alert and focused when I get there, so toodles for now.

Blogger 365 Day 91 - Two different worlds

     What can I say about today?  The sun was shining, it was warm outside, the promise of spring was definitely in the air.  There was no underlying chill that sometimes comes with days like today, like the death grip of winter unwilling to let go of its grasp on the season, it was just warm, sunny and pleasant.  Technically it did at one point get as high as 80 degrees here in Pittsburgh.  Of course if I worked at The Weather Channel, I am sure the forecast would have been more along the lines of

Severe Sun Event!!!!!!!   Sun Event Cicero engulfs Pittsburgh region

People in Pittsburgh should brace themselves for an unusual case of sun over the next 12 hours. Excessive sun can be dangerous, leading to increased chances of windshield glare for motorists, so drivers should use extreme caution when traveling.  Sun events also bring with them the increased possibility of skin cancer with the bombardment of ultraviolet radiation, so while it may seem safe outdoors, it is still best you make sure you are properly attired and your skin is not exposed to the warmth of the sun.  Whatever you do today, do not look directly into the sun, as this can cause severe eye damage and can ultimately result in blindness.  Do not mistake the pleasant conditions as a reason to feel safe, sun events are very dangerous and many people have died while outdoors during sun events.  Only go out if you must and keep exposure to very short time limits to minimize the potential dangers involved in sun events. 

Just saying.....
