84 and BEAUTIFUL in Southern California!

[Zomby Woof]

B-) I am going back outside... I had to come in and let you poor bastards stuck with nasty snow and bitter cold wind know about the unbelievably great weather over here. :evilgrin:

[AirmensMom]

1. Hey, Woof!

Not snowing here. B-)

:hi:

[In_The_Wind]

2. Thanks a whole heck of a lot.

Ya wanna ship me some ice cubes while you're at it. huh.



:hi:

[huskerlaw]

3. Buahahahaha!

Although, I'm stuck inside all day, so I dunno what I'm laughing about.


Except that when I drive home there won't be any ice or snow involved. :evilgrin:

[SOteric]

4. But, - ZeeDub,

It's sunny and gorgeous up here in the PNW, too.

[deadparrot]

5. I was just talking to my friend in Los Angeles.

She was talking about going to the beach. *sigh*

[huskerlaw]

7. I went to the beach on Friday night

and got uncomfortably warm while walking around outside yesterday. Current temp is about 85.

LA rules. :)

[deadparrot]

11. *shakes fist from northeast Missouri*

Wind chill of 19 here. *puts on sweatshirt*

:hi:

[huskerlaw]

13. Greetings

Missourian. I've only lived in the loveliness that is SoCal since October. Before that...Lincoln, Nebraska. I know well the weather you're dealing with...and I feel for ya!

You've had a fairly temperate winter though, haven't you?

:hi:

[deadparrot]

18. Not too bad.

Some snow, but usually no more than a couple of inches at a time. The wind's the toughest...it's so flat here; there's nothing to act as a buffer. Oh well--c'est la vie. Enjoy your beautiful weather! :toast:

[GOPisEvil]

6. Sunny and 66 here in Occupied Texas.

B-)

[huskerlaw]

8. BRRRR!

I think 66 was our overnight low. ;)

[GOPisEvil]

10. Ours was in the 20s!

But it warmed up fast. It was 40 by 9:30.

[huskerlaw]

14. Jeeezus

that's furnace weather!

Speaking of which...I still haven't turned mine on. Nor have I needed to. I think winter is my new favorite season. :)

[GOPisEvil]

17. Grrrrr...mine has been on the last few mornings.

We've been around freezing.

Sigh...it's not perfect, but it's a damn sight better than REAL winter.

What we need...is rain. x(

[huskerlaw]

20. I've actually had to

open windows when I got home from work for the past week...the apartment was hot and stuffy!

Yesterday was about 90, which was almost a little bit too warm...almost...ok, not really. ;)

And yes, we could use some rain too. Though the wildfires are back under control.

[GOPisEvil]

22. It will be in the 70s by Wednesday.

That is perfect winter weather. Too bad I'm cooped up all day. x(

[Zomby Woof]

23. Winter was over by January 3 this year

:P

[GOPisEvil]

24. Aren't you guys due for an earthquake or something?

:P

[Zomby Woof]

27. Maybe

Although those only scare wimps who aren't originally from here. :P

[huskerlaw]

28. Hey, heeeeey.

Be nice! I'd like to see your native SoCal ass sit through a tornado and not be scared.

[GOPisEvil]

30. Fight, fight!!!

:popcorn:

[Zomby Woof]

34. Huskerlaw EMBRACES California

She is a real Californian as far as I am concerned. She doesn't do things impulsively or half-assed. :D

[GOPisEvil]

36. Impulsive and half-assed is my middle name!

:P

[Zomby Woof]

42. Get yer ass out here!

However many asses it takes to do it. :D

[huskerlaw]

43. I do, in fact,

embrace all that is Californian. This is true.

Though I gotta say, getting the ZW Seal of the Californicated is quite humbling. ;)

[Zomby Woof]

Damn straight!

And you even have California kitties! :D

We need that seal for a sig line!

[huskerlaw]

50. damn straight we do

Where are the Photoshop pros when you need them? I think it should be like the Presidential Seal, since nobody's taking that shit seriously anymore.

[Zomby Woof]

31. You're exempt

It is precisely because you are toughened by tornadoes you are exempt. I myself freely admit that they would make me shit my pants. :D

[Misunderestimator]

9. Damn. That's hot.

I'm having a lovely fire right now.

15. Oh no you

DIDN'T! ;)

[Zomby Woof]

19. Ahnold has zero effect in LA

Hell, our mayor is not only the most progressive Democratic mayor in America, he has more power than the chastened, impotent Ahnold. And Senator Boxer will still be here for us long after we terminate the bastard later this year. :D

Anyone who tries using Ahnold to make some kind of anti-CA statement is jealous at worst or floundering at best. ;-)

[Misunderestimator]

21. Yes, jealous. Right.

[huskerlaw]

25. That's why I didn't

bother to defend California. If that's the biggest insult they've got, no response is really needed.

Besides, I'm guessing if we spent a minute or two on google, we could find a mayor in Illinois who is something less than progressive.

[Zomby Woof]

29. LOL

And that is why we love you. :loveya:

Sushi and ice cream for you!

In fact, we need to get you to Tommy's! :bounce:

[huskerlaw]

39. Whooo hooo

Name the time and place...I'm always up for ice cream, sushi, or Tommy's. ;)

[UCLA02]

81. TOMMY'S!!! Rock on!

The original on Rampart and Beverly, just down the road a bit from me as I sit here in Los Feliz.

Open 24 hrs, too, just gave me an idea...

[Misunderestimator]

16. Ain't that the truth!

And in Michigan we have Jennifer Granholm...



damn fine Governor.

[huskerlaw]

32. And the Michigan militia

but I digress.

:hi:

[Zomby Woof]

35. And Ted Nugent

:puke:

[Misunderestimator]

41. And the Minutemen in California.

but I also digress.

:hi:

[huskerlaw]

46. I'm not trying to start

anything, just pointing out it's a silly pissing contest to get into. Every state's got politicians and/or political groups that...how shall I say it...don't exactly live up to the progressive ideal.

:)

[Misunderestimator]

48. I agree it's silly. Also silly to have a pissing contest about weather...

no? :)

AFS, dude. :loveya:

[jpgray]

60. Affection Following Snark?

:shrug:

This is yet another weird thread.

[huskerlaw]

52. Oh but

I'm finally on the winning side of that one!

I kid. Yes, you're right. Weather-related pissing contests are also silly. I have been known to engage in silliness every once in a while though. ;)

[Misunderestimator]

56. Haven't we all.

All good... :peace: :)

[Zomby Woof]

53. Amen!

And I started the thread in FUN, not as a "pissing contest". :eyes:

It seems some people can't help themselves whenever I post. :D I love the reactions, lol. Kind of weird that it persists, but I might as well enjoy the attention. ;-)

[Misunderestimator]

54. Some people? Perhaps you can link all the posts I've ever made to you.

I think it would be fewer than a handful. You're cute in your egoism. :)

[Maddy McCall]

72. .

:rofl:

[Briarius]

26. Must be nice...

I'm just glad I got the driveway here cleared...

[Zomby Woof]

40. That's pretty!

From 3,000 miles away. :evilgrin:

[SammyWinstonJack]

66. I was born and raised in Southern California, only left there in '93.

Lived for three years in Pittsburgh. Loved both and miss both. What I miss this time of year is snow and skiing. Living in Texas doesn't get me either one. :-(

[jpgray]

33. I never got to experience beautiful weather in LA

I spent some nice days in SF and Monterey, however. It is improbably gorgeous right now in St. Paul--it reminds me of the winter weather in Billings or Montrose.

[Radical Activist]

37. Have fun when you fall into the ocean, jackass.

;)

[Zomby Woof]

44. We'll become an island

Secede from the U.S. and make Boxer our governor! :bounce:

[huskerlaw]

47. WHOOOO HOOOOO!

Oh ZW, don't raise my hopes with your mention of Utopia.

[maveric]

38. Hey ZombyWoof! Guess where I was this morning?

[Zomby Woof]

45. Very nice!

:thumbsup:

[maveric]

59. Fishing was great too. I dont know what the Vietnamese use for bait...

but they catch EVERYTHING!
They were pulling in sea bass, mackerel, stingray and small sharks. The pelicans were all over so you know that there are many fish around the pier.

[Ellen Forradalom]

49. If everything goes according to plan

I'm going to be joining you!

[Zomby Woof]

58. Cool!

Get away from those cold Lake Michigan winds. ;-)

[benburch]

57. We Interrupt This Thread For An Important Announcement!!!

[Susang]

61. Some of us actually like snow

And wish it would do it more often. :thumbsup:

[jpgray]

62. As an X-country ski bum

I'm of this rationale. :thumbsup:

[maveric]

63. No you dont. C'mon!

My parents would tell that and every time they got snow or unbearable cold they would call me and complain.
Snow is cold, wet and miserable.
This is from someone who grew up in Boston.

SoCal ROCKS!

[jpgray]

64. Well, my parents call me to complain about my brother all the time

That doesn't mean they don't love him. :D

Discernible seasons really are a must for me.

[Susang]

65. Actually, I really do

Nothing quite as much fun as walking around the city during a massive snowstorm. It's like a completely different world, everything sparkles.

BTW, we get summer here, spring and fall, too. ;-)

[Zomby Woof]

67. Good

Obviously my FUN thread isn't for everyone, but I saw enough threads bitching about the snow I thought I would have SOME GOOD-NATURED FUN about it.

And some of us hate snow, and like to have FUN posting about it. :thumbsup:

[Susang]

68. Okay, Mr. Grouchy Pants

Did I sound like I wasn't having fun? Sheesh!

[Zomby Woof]

69. No, you are having fun

:P

Actually, I am in a good mood, and am puzzled on how so much discord went down in this thread.

But anyway, you can call me Mr. Woof. ;-) :D

[Susang]

73. What, you don't like Mr. Pants?

I think that's a perfectly acceptable name for someone who's basking in summer-like weather in February! :P

As for any discord, I think people tend to identify with and get a little territorial about where they choose to live. I wouldn't take it too seriously. ;-)

[Zomby Woof]

74. You may have missed what happened a few weeks ago

I need to find the link, but this local newspaper columnist read something I posted about his paper in GD, and he blasted me in his column, calling me "Mr. Woof." :rofl:

He called me out by my full DU name before coming up with that gem. :P

[Susang]

78. Mr. Woof?

That's hysterical! :D

[Zomby Woof]

80. He said...

"Good for you, Mr. Woof". :D

All I did was make an offhand remark about the NAME of the paper, and he took great umbrage. Looks like DU is everywhere!

[donheld]

82. Go to Steamboat Springs CO

They've had 27 feet. Yes 324 inches so far. So much even the ski resort can't find places to put it.

[Maddy McCall]

70. It's in the 20s in Mississippi. I'm REALLY jealous.

I ran to the grocery store to get dog food awhile ago, and almost froze me keester off. :D

Wish it were warm enough to sit outside and look at the moon tonight.

Oh, and, here in S. Mississippi, we actually got SNOW last night. Yes, SNOW!

[Zomby Woof]

77. The full moon is GORGEOUS

Nini and I went down to the beach to watch the sunset... (pictures shortly), and after we turned and left, there was the moon!

We had a great view of Malibu across the water... and Point Dume jutting out into the Pacific.

[latebloomer]

71. I actually thought

that this was going to be about a woman who had probably had a lot of plastic surgery!

:rofl:

[Benfea]

75. Long ago, a bunch of New Yorkers were standing around...

…and one of them said "You know, I like New York. I love the overcrowding, the crime, and the urban blight, but you know? It's just not cold enough here!" and thus, Chicago was founded.

I couldn't imagine living anywhere else. You can have your earthquakes and your mudslides and your raging forrest fires. I'm happy with my tornados, thank you very much. ;)

PS — why are both "tornadoes" and "tornados" considered proper plural spellings? Why can't we settle on just one?

[JI7]

76. it feels like it's summer time

people are dressing in shorts, light shirts, skirts etc. kids outside playing in the water. lines at ice cream places.

i keep thinking it's summer and then remember it's only February. very unusual weather for this time of the year. even if it is California. usually even if it's clear outside it's still really cold.

but it's been warm for the past couple weeks or so.

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

79. Drat. I clicked this thread looking for a pic of a beautiful 84 year old.

Anyone got anything like that?
