Smiley suns and fluffy white clouds ...

Am I the only person who thinks the weather guy should just report the weather and get on with it?

Our local meteorologist held forth this morning on how upset he was that Kelly Clarkson (And I really don't care if that's spelled right) didn't thank American Idol for starting her useless career when she won her gold-plated paperweight last night.

Just tell me the high and low for today. That's all you're good for, anyway. The forecasting is pointless beyond that.

And, why is this -- this -- the one thing that upsets you enough to proclaim your dissatisfaction to the greater Baltimore metro area?

Your president lied to start a war, global warming is destroying the planet, a major American city has been destroyed by incompetence as much as by nature, and your government is spying on you. And you give a shit about who Kelly Clarkson thanks in her acceptance speech?

Man, that's it. I'm moving to Mexico. The weather don't change much there, right?
