B.C. by Mastroianni and Hart for October 04, 2024

Amen…

Not if you live in Canada.

ICE AGE!

We are getting close to permanent summer here in the bluegrass.

No snow here in Bonnie Scotland. Just the usual rain. Again.

Brace yourself. Weenter is comi…Oh waits it already here.

We had two measurable snowfalls last winter, and the snow did not stick around. It rarely got colder than the 20s. Back in the day, I used to make an ice rink in the backyard each year. That became impossible long ago. Never stays cold enough long enough.

Is this Mastroianni’s way of cocking a snook at global warming?

Maybe he just walks slower.

Everything goes by faster and faster the older you get.

That is why a lot of people move south when they get older.

Not if you live in Florida. . .

Summer (fires, evacuations, smoke) and winter (shoveling snow, hauling wood) are the longest seasons of the year, regardless of what the calendar shows!

Unless you live in Florida, will be in the mid 90’s today

Not in my neck of the woods.

Don’t get to enjoy summer when one is working 8-10 hour days. Even at retirement it flashes by.

…….you mean time!!!!!!!!

Sometimes, it seems that way.

Well, it is true. The longer you live the less a year represents a percentage of your life. At 10 a year is one tenth of your life, at 50 it is only 1/50th of your life, so it goes by 5 times as fast.

Great, I think I just depressed myself.

when you get to the end, the end rushes towards you in greeting. most of us have the problem that the end is going so fast it can’t slow down in time and we are simply run over by the laws of physics. thus the end of all things physical and the only thing left is the willingness of the spirit. sadly in some, even the spirit has been beat out of them.

I like Spring and Fall which always seem disappear fast. I’m averse to Winter and Summer. They’re killers in many ways, especially utility bills!

Or Arizona

Everything does

Ohhhhhhhj… Greta Turdburglar and the other Liberal Global Warming…The Count means Climate Change…Looney Toons will be all over this one. They might even turn it into an inane dumb asp question in a debate. Or two. God Bless America.

You’ll have that…

Last year the world’s longest skating rink never opened. First time ever!

Supposed to get to 107 here in Phoenix AZ

Time to drag out the long underwear.

Pshaw! It’s been upper 90s, lower 100s this week. I had no idea the Beach Boys were prophets.

Or Southern Arizona!

Move to Phoenix, Arizona. It’s still too hot to be outside.

Move to Texas. We are now at late Summer and will enter Christmas sometime in December.

Rather have snow than fire for three months.

It never goes by fast enough for me.

not here in So Cal… still dealing with it.

in Florida winter is summer, and not having to do with climate change, and Tampa had a new high yesterday 94, guess when the record was last on that day 1959

I wish – starts about mid-April and end towards the end of October. I’m looking forward to it being gone!

Not if you live in the Phoenix, AZ area. It’s going to be 109 today.

As you get older it’s not just the summer seasons that go by faster, it is the years and decades which seem to zip past you with alarming speed.

All of a sudden you find yourself in your later years and wondering just where did all that time go.

Then you get chilling reminders of your mortality when your health begins to fail and you inevitably start ponder just how many more years you have left to live, it’s very unsettling indeed.

Or upper Midwest. Former Chief Operator in Superior WI told a story of requiring snow mobile to get to work, and one morning opened her home door to see it completely blocked with snow. In another adventure, I had to fly to 1978’s Boston and east coast blizzard snow mountains with special permission to pass through National Guard sealed routes and they aimed ARs at us.

I respectfully disagree. The older I get, the more I am affected by heat sickness. So, of course, summer is getting longer and hotter.Climate change, anyone?

Had snow in the mountains here already. I am so not ready for it again in the valley. Last year, the resorts up the road from us got over 600 inches.

Seems the opposite for me.

One reason time seems to go faster as we age is this: at 10 years old, one year is 10% of your life; at 50 years old one year is only 2% of your life.

and winter drags on longer and longer the older I get!

Next year I hope Summer comes on my day off!

Summer lasts forever here in Kansas
