Your reality as you see things.

There is only one reality; either you can grow grapes in England or you can't.
Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

I just saw this comment to a story about Snowden and think it pretty much covers any political discussion about any subject currently.  The comments on the HCRA in another thread are a perfect example of one of many issues...every single one of which comes right back to this salient point.  Don't blow smoke up my ass about his policies because while I'm sure you hate them, it's because you hated him first so they must be bad.

I am an unaffiliated voter. I am NOT stuck. I move. When necessary. That's why I can also call myself a 'former' conservative voter. I moved.The argument that you are currently using - IS actually, divisive. It's doesn't 'sound' like it is, but, it is. What we are talking about here - are broken down along the 'issues'. You divide, by attacking people/parties. We aren't talking about the merits of these far reaching 'security' tools here.....we are 'stuck', once again, talking about the people. See, we've actually HAD this debate about spying, rendition, EIT's ect. And the guys who authored it - used the excuse that it was a wartime necessity - which we are still technically ~ AT WAR. So what's the real difference here? Obama. Every single 'issue', revolves around the one position in government. And this tearing down of both parties, is actually nothing more than a 'If I can't rule America, then you can't either'! And there is ONLY ONE party attempting such a thing. For the last 5 years! NOT two.
This is an opinion

At one time the fact that it was too cold in England was a reality.  Yes, I missed it by a few hundred years but it was still fact no matter how you want to twist it.

You don't see that counter clock-wise rotation that will result in even more of what we had today once the sun comes up in the morning?

(Why am I not surprised?)

I see that but I also see temps in the 70's here and no rotation.  If it starts moving this way and is still rotating and turning reds and purples today and tomorrow and temps are starting to get into the mid 80's and 90's then I might get alarmed.
Now, except for the temps, I'm seeing some yellows and reds on the radar moving in to southern In.  Well, plus I just heard thunder in spite of the fact I see nothing on radar locally.  Sure is dark out though.  Might just get rained on since we've got to go out.  Oh well, won't be the first or last time.

Well, we have perfect timing.  Started raining as we were leaving and quit a few minutes after we got home.....Expect the next shower to be around 5:30pm when I have to be out again.

Yep!  Here is a time lapse of "Popo" putting on a show just a couple of weeks ago on June 17th.

And on the topic of weather, here is a picture of a waterspout from just today taken on the west coast of Florida near Oldsmar.

No doubt!  Glad that crap was on the other side of the state.  It was sunny all day here for the most part.  :yes:
