Sun. Oct. 13, 2019 – Friday the 13th falls on a Sunday this month

By on October 13th, 2019 in Random Stuff

Mid 50s and damp, probably. [Looks like 60F and moist] I’ll be winging my way to Chicago by the time most of you read this. It was 54F yesterday morning. It got warmer, but not quite to ‘hot’.

Fall is definitely here. HIGHS of 54F forecast for my brief trip to Chicago.

Traveling until noonish…

Talk amongst yourselves.

    Have a good trip ! Hope that you do not get snowed in. One of the wife’s cousins in Colorado has already been snowed on and was not pleased.

  2. SteveF says:

    Recall that “scientists” predicted the end of snowfall, way back in 2000, with the date of the last of the snow varying but always before now. Therefore, the cousin on Colorado wasn’t snowed on but rather was gored on.

    I wonder how you get Chicago O’Hare out of ORD ?

    @lynn, here is your answer:
    https://www.gonomad.com/2346-what-airport-codes-mean

    From the link:

    ORD: Before becoming one of the world’s busiest airports, Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport was the site of an aircraft factory known as Orchard Place; and thus, the “ORD” designation for Orchard. Later, it became a commercial airfield, known as Orchard Field. In 1949, the name of the airport was changed to O’Hare Field, to honor local war hero Edward “Butch” O’Hare. The O’Hare legacy continues on to this day.

    Sweet, I am living right. I just got told on Usenet that I should be lined up on a wall and shot since I am a man-made climate change skeptic. Along with the rest of the conservatives.

    Wild, people are watching our software download area on our website. I put up version 16.00b patch Friday night at 11pm. Several people have downloaded already and installed it. I do not announce patches except to those who are waiting on a bug fix.

    And yes, sadly, we have bugs.

    Because you didn’t go along with someone’s deeply-held religious beliefs.

    Of course, because there is only one perfection on earth: *cough* He who knows who He is.

    See, I CAN learn 😉

    Ooh, bet that makes their heads explode. Good. +1000!

    The subtleties and genteel humor keep me coming here. Seriously.

    A leftard at work, who is natively intelligent but whose head is full of bovine excrement because he’s a leftard, proudly proclaimed — at work, in front of several devout Mormons, a Jewish convert, and a couple of devout Christians — that he’s too intelligent to believe in any religion. He is, however, a warmenist, and makes up “facts” when he’s arguing the matter with someone who doesn’t buy it.

    If “the science is settled” we can cut their funding and use the money elsewhere.

    In WA and OR, I encountered a lot of a personality type I called “church ladies without churches”, old hippie women who desired to be busybodies but were too agnostic or flat-out atheist for the regular organized religion outlet.

    Heh !

    Another whack job. Obviously did not watch “Kindergarten Cop” as a child.

    Let me guess, he drives a Dodge Charger with a Hemi V8.

    Naw, the kool kidz have a 68 Hemi Dart for show, and a 69 Dart with a Ray Barton smallblock for go.

    The biggest problem for the religious zealot is that no one can be pure enough. They end up eating their own. Of course, the genocide often comes first….

    Yeah, the genocide of the deplorables.

    The best solution for the global warmies is to reduce the population of the world by 90%. And quickly too.

    They should obviously start with themselves to demonstrate commitment to their cause. 🙂

    No, it’s a small SUV. Doesn’t seat any more than a regular sedan but it gets worse mileage.

    Sooner or later, everyone embraces The Wisdom of SteveF.
