Ahhhh, summer is here, and with it, here in NC (for you folks that live elsewheres) that means frequent, and infrequent at times, rain storms from nowhere. The best part is, it rains in places....you heard me right.....certain places. As in across the street, or over Target and Wal-Mart, not in between! Sounds crazy? Well, as I am more than prone to do, and I am sure you are getting used to, I HAVE A THEORY.....
So I imagine it, (if you believe in) God is up on high, busy, as usual, with all the things he/she has to take care of. So who's in charge of making the rain happen when it is supposed to? OHHH, that's right, some newbie who never really read the Rain manual, but accepted the job because it was a promotion from Garbage Smell creation. So...
Being new at the job, by accident, liberally he's (and yes I say he, because as educated males know, women just don't make mistakes - well, except for Roseanne Barr singing the National Anthem very bad on purpose!) he has spread the rain around to where it needs to go, causing massive flooding (i.e. the midwest, and all the other places - bless those who encountered these misfortunes), unbeknownst to him. SO, when it comes to rain in dear old Winston-Salem and surrounding areas....well.....he's almost out. So he scatters it around as best he can.
No imagine if you will, this guy answering to God....(or the Bossman for those who believe otherwise). I mean daaaaaaaang! God says: Did you get the rain out? Fellah says: Ummm, yeah about that....
God: Oh Me, what happened?
Fellah: Weeeelllll....about that....see I kind of ran out near the end
God: Whaddya mean?
Fellah: Let's just say I had to make do...kind of.
God: Kind of? Oh my Me....what did you do?
Fellah: Well....okay I'm still learning okay? And well, I kind of used too much in some places, and well, when it came to Winston-Salem and its areas, I had to spread it out the best I could
God: As in....? (Sighs) Lemme see.......[Takes a look around].......Oh my ME!!!! Are you kidding? You didn't even have enough to make it rain on both sides of the street? SERIOUSLY! Do you have any idea what people are thinking right now?
Fellah: No...but no one will notice, yeah?
God: (Sigh) I suppose not, well, except for that one freak who's insanity drove him to blog so that others could share in the madness
Fellah: Wait, you mean the guy you gave a receeding hairline to, the slowest metabolism ever, and the 'ability' to run himself into a brick wall repeatedly until he actually learns something?
God: Yeah him. Listen, I gotta run. Please, please try not to redefine 'scattered showers' ever again?
Fellah: Sorry Boss
I'm just saying...That's what it seems like here in good ol' W-S sometimes when the rain finally does come. Nothing like driving from Lewisville where it's damp, through tons of dry land, only to get to downtown W-S and actually find 'the river runs through it'. HAHHAHAA Craziness and imagination at its best!
Proof yet again: Never leave a hermit by himself when boredome is a 'skrong' possibility!!!
Until the next time...........If the ancients could make up stories for reasons in nature, why can't we? And, who was it who said science was exact and always right? >WINKS<
