Jude 2

Yesterday, as I headed off to work (keep in mind that I start work at 1:30 P.M.), the sun was shinning brightly, little cotton-ball clouds floated in the sky, the air temperature was 42 degrees (a little cool for me, but not too bad). In two minutes I'm on I 24, tooling along, minding my own business, when out of nowhere I drive into a snow shower! What's with that? I guess I should be thankful for Al Gore (he invented global warming, otherwise it might have been a blizzard). This has been a strange year for weather.

p.s. Thanks Al

And here I thought we were to thank the Lord for our snow. Please do not tell my kids it's a person they should thank !

I thank him every time I login to Jude2. Afterall, if Al hadn't invented the internet, where would my life be?

Weird - snow showers yesterday, and this just popped up.
