Out of the Blue

I just heard the statistic that supports all my complaints about the weather in these parts lately... the month of May in the greater New York area has had 26 days of rain or overcast, and not one single day where the temperature reached 80 degrees. Last year it was illegal to wash your car around here due to the drought, this year it's allowed, but who wants to wash their car in the rain?

Happy birthday Bob Hope.

Yea its fun stuff, a great anti-baby weapon.


Seriously i was refering to the "chlorine in the gene pool" statement, i've been saying that for years and just thought i'd give the guy a nod.

and it'd be be equilivalent of 50 gallons of chlorine.

Have you ever seen/known someone take a shot of chlorine gas?

Not pretty. If you don't cough up your lungs you'll spend a long time wishing you had.

Two times now I've arrived on the scene of a leak right after it was contained.

Pure liquid chlorine will quickly switch to a gas when it hits atmospheric pressure.

One plant I worked at while I was in college had a leak overnight. The cloud (chlorine is heavier than air so it will float low to the ground) moved up one street killing every tree. Good thing it was night time.

The 'safer' form of chlorine - sodium hypochlorite does not kill the bad bacteria as well as the pure stuff. It is not as reactive and when you spill it you run less of a risk to human life. Fish on the other hand suffer when it gets spilled and works its way into a waterway.

Yuck.

Get mellon boys, together with those guys in the ootb where they poured boiling water in the dude's face, and it'd be be equilivalent of 50 gallons of chlorine.

Can anyone tell me just what the hell they're doing? It looks like a melon filled with charcoal lighter fluid. No, I don't wanna try it out

Air Conditioning? Bah, t'is a rare thing in this country outside office blocks and the obscenely rich. We only just got round to covering the country with electricity (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/wales/mid/2943876.stm).


"mmmmm, recirculated air..."

Since Blue brought it up, none of you have mentioned it, and it is an Englishman's prerogative to mention the weather at some point in the day...

26C where I am today. Was 24 yesterday. Will be mid-20's again tomorrow. Thanks to the (semi-)civilised world and our insane pollution, we're getting the best summer in a long time.

I frown upon the Darwin awards. Snopes revealed that some of their funniest winners from previous years were bullshit. They made them up.

Its chechnyans using all they have to fight off invading russian troops. The USA needs to realize there theres a reason some people use terrorism, its because its all they have. I cant believe Bush put the Chechen Mujahideen on his list of terrorists that threaten american lives when they should be putting Putin on it instead.

Holy macaroni. Was that american troops? Where was that? That was crazy.

I'll venture a guess that it was in Chechnya.
