[QUOTE=Sunspace] Where I am, it was cool and moist today. [/QUOTE] Mmmmm, moist. Say, where have I seen that lately? Friggin’ HOT here. We’re in the middle of the hottest part of the year, but very heavy unseasonable rains the past week have cooled it down a bit. It’s almost like the rainy season has arrived a couple of months early. Still HOT, though. ---

Near perfect weather here in the Great Southwest…going to be high to mid-60’s with light winds and a bit of overcast. According to the forcast we are in for a bit of a heat wave over the weekend with temps getting up to mid-70’s. Oh…the HUMANITY! Anyway, sorry about the weather in Alaska. Pretty there though… -XT ---

80 degrees yesterday. I watched my daughter play soccer at 6 PM last night in shorts and a t-shirt. At 9PM the A/C came on because the house was 73 degrees. 12 hours later we have moderate snow, there’s a Winter Storm Warning to the west and its about 35 degrees. On May 1st. ---

There was a brief flurry yesterday morning and I thought everyone was going to quit on me. Attitudes took a definite turn for the worse as we braced ourselves for another storm. Happily, it didn’t materialize; by late afternoon the sun was back. ---

Yeah, we woke up to a lovely white layer on everything, too. We use May 20something as our date to start planting stuff here - I don’t know about this year. ---

[QUOTE=featherlou] But I don’t think it is a reasonable request - people swear here, and everyone knows it. Why do you want there to be no swearing in thread titles? [/QUOTE] I have not asked for it. But many post at work and they have asked for it. I consider it a reasonable request by my fellow Members and out of politeness, I have agreed. It’s not “never swear” it’s “please don’t put swear words in thread title”. Of course, there is no “rule”, thus if you must have a “rule” to be polite, then that’s up to you. ---

I surf the Dope at work, knowing full well that there may be swears on my screen from time to time. If I thought it would be a problem, I would stop surfing at work. I don’t think “politeness” has anything to do with it - this seems to be a judgement issue to me. (By judgement I mean on the part of the people surfing at work.)
