What I am seeing today is my waistline expanding even more !!! Picked up one of these, and while I love the thing its just TOO easy to pop on a burger or sausage snack.. I pay $10 for a bag of 15 burger patties or 20 hot sausages. THIS thing is going to get expensive !!

When I see this, the first thing I want to do is dress up like a zombie, start moaning, and eerily shamble up to your campfire from out of the fog... hahaha!

You've heard of the 'calm before the storm'?
Here's where that phrase comes from.

We are but a fw hours from landfall of hurricane Laura, and as almost always, right before a storm, the sunset and sunrise are especially impressive. Sunset today:

"Orange Skies... Nothing but Orange Skies do I see..."




I think of Wednesday, September 9, 2020, as The Day Without Sun.

That's a photograph looking towards the Golden Gate Bridge (I think) that connects San Francisco with the land to the north, on the other side of the San Francisco Bay.

I don't know the time of day for the photograph. If it was anything like it was here, close to San Jose, it could have been anytime during the day. From sunrise to sunset the sky was overcast with an orange-tinted haze from horizon to horizon. It seemed more like night than day. It never seemed to get any brighter outside, even as the morning gave way to afternoon. There were reports of people being momentarily confused, upon awakening, whether the time on their 12-hour clock was AM or PM. One father with a planetary sense of humor told his children that their neighborhood had been transported to the planet Mars during the night.

It's the wildfires (of course) combined with winds that pushed the smoke to lower altitude as it moved it into the Bay Area.

Thursday was kind of like Wednesday.

I guess this is "cheating" because I did not take that photograph (it's from the LA Times) but I think the exceptionality of this report makes it excusable for me.

That was a joke. A gag. A gotcha.

I hope it's not something I already did in the first seven pages of this thread, but it wouldn't surprise me if that were the case.
