Eee gads. Praying for hurricanes to end the drought. Now that's a fine howdie do.

[lonestarnot]

Prices of everything on the rise, gasoline and corn (so that's about everything). Big crisis is looming. And group hugging isn't going to cure it. I'm not going to like it one damn bit.

1. Please pass the bowl of Wtfareyoutalkingabout?

[lonestarnot]

2. The midwest is in drought so badly that it appears the only solution is a hurricane,

so people are being asked to pray for a hurricane to end the drought. Unreal.

[karlrschneider]

5. Not the midwest...the southeast.

That's where the drought is. It has rained every day this month here...

[lonestarnot]

7. Midwest is what I saw and where they're pray'n.

Showed the prayer meet'n.

[karlrschneider]

15. Well, NOAA hasn't gotten the word

27. LOL. Hope they're not part of the praying for hurricanes bunch.

:rofl:

[guitar man]

25. no shit

I needed a rowboat just to get to my car this morning in Tulsa :wow:

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

11. LOL

Actually praying for a hurricane...

I thought that was some sort of metaphor.

[lonestarnot]

For reals. I saw it.

21. Hurricanes on the east coast

Typhoons on the West Coast, oh Tsunamis are on the West Coast too.


I'm looking for a Nor'Easter for the summer, that might happen in this weird kind of global warming climate.


Now it is in the mid-50's where I am in Upper Montgomery County, MD.

No rain, too much pollen.

3. are they praying for a hurricane or mild tropical system?

A slow moving tropical storm or depression would be welcomed, but nobody wants a severe hurricane.

[lonestarnot]

4. I don't know, I didn't ask 'em. LOL

[Lone_Star_Dem]

6. That's kind of like praying for death to end a toothache

It'll get the job done, but there are better alternatives.

[lonestarnot]

9. Bout the size of it.

Firm believer in ask and you shall receive, but I think it's too little too late.

8. I don't know about the mid west, but last night on our 11PM news

the guy who did the weather was talking about the severe fires that have been buring thousands of acres since March on the Ga. FL border. He said there's no rain in the fortcast that he can see, and some severe thrunder storms are about the only thing that's ever going to put the fires out. Humans have been trying everything they know how to do, including dropping large qty of water from airplanes, but nothing seems to help.

[lonestarnot]

10. Guess the fundies that are spout'n all that, "God bless America," are realizing

they aren't really in charge of who and what's "blessed." :rofl: Same ones that have been "deceived." Same ones whose parents have gladly sacrificed their kids for lies.

12. We've had no rain in months here in SE Alabama

The smoke from GA/FLA fires has made it all the way to Montgomery. You wake up every morning to smog, smoke, dust, pollution, and who knows what else that makes life outside miserable. My grass is brown and leaves are falling off the pecan, poplar, and maple trees. My garden is the worst ever. Farmers are feeding cows and horses hay - in FUCKING MAY! The pasture grass is dead.

[lonestarnot]

14. Struggling to feed them and it's no wonder they don't want to pay for mad cow tests; the big asses

don't want the bottom line interference. We are in big ass trouble.

[Elwood P Dowd]

16. It's really bad down here. Some areas have had a couple of inches of rain

but most are like us. The cotton and corn crops are gone if this continues much longer. The fruit and vegetable crops are gone unless they are irrigated. They hay fields are brown. What are the farm animals going to eat this winter?

[lonestarnot]

18. Yeppers, panick is about here.

[Ilsa]

13. That is so stupid on so many levels.. I've been in hurricanes with very little soaking

rain to end a drought -- just high winds. And you don't know if the rain will fall where it is needed. The drought-stricken area could get the drier side of a hurricane. That's only one level of stupidity. Like the others said - "...praying for death to end a toothache..."

Sometimes people are just so dumb.

[Dr.Phool]

17. Hurricane Jeanne came through here a couple of years ago.

Very little rain. We've had more rain in an afternoon thunderstorm than it produced. But it ripped my solar panels off the roof and blew down the fence.

[lonestarnot]

19. She was a cat ?????

[Ilsa]

24. Rita flooded southeast Texas out. It passed by here, and we

got wind, not a drop of rain since we were on the west side of it.

[lonestarnot]

26. Guess the hurricane "stratergee" isn't work'n. Heh

[smtpgirl]

20. Not wishing for a hurricane

Isabel brought tree damaging winds & NO RAIN.

I am in the WDC suburbs.

But a long lasting rain is cool, would relieve my allergies

[rec_report]

22. 'Praying for hurricanes to end the drought' --LOL!! That's the Bush regime's

solution to global warming!

[lonestarnot]

23. Somehow I have the feeling that bushitler's brain doesn't light up when he prays, but I'm not his

judge, just his criticizer. :rofl:
