« on: May 20, 2013, 10:04:55 PM »Droughts in Chicago don't last very long. They only last about one summer and then the winter snow comes and they're out of it. I wish droughts were like that in the south.
Yes, multi-year droughts are rare here these days, but they were pretty common between 1885 and about 1970.

That one (AT&T?) where that guy is talking to the kids, and that annoying little girl says "We want more, we want more."

Only time will tell, although I think it's unlikely.
More rain tomorrow.

That new Progressive ad with Michael Buffer (the "Let's get ready to rumbllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllle" guy) takes annoying to a new level.
