50,000 Monkeys at 50,000 Typewriters Can't Be Wrong

hey man, well this is babylon

Posted on 27 October, 2004 By Wil

It’s raining pretty hard over my house right now, which isn’t that big a deal, except we rarely get interesting weather here in Pasadena . . . but right now it’s a full-on Arizona-style thunderstorm, complete with bright flashes of lightning, explosive claps of thunder, and sheets of water falling from the sky so heavily, I can’t see across my street.
Actually, as I write this, I’m sitting in my kitchen, watching garbage cans float down the gutter in front of my house. Good thing I left my cans up on the sidewalk this morning, just in case.
I’m putting the finishing touches on the Dallas recap. It should post within 24 hours.
. . . and in the time it’s taken me to write this and preview it, the rain has completely stopped. I just opened the window and all I can hear is the ferocious rushing of water down the street, and the drip drip drip of the downspout on the garage.
Cool. 🙂

    *sings* ‘Took a walk in the rain one day on the wrong side of the track’
    Been so long sense we had a good thunderstorm up here. Although Thursday evening we got a good rain. Went for a walk. Was really peacefull.
    You reminded me of the rainpatterns we had at a summer camp i worked at. One minute, its clear as a bell, nary a cloud. 5 minutes later, its nice and gray dumping buckets of water on you. about 5 or 10 minutes after that, clear as it was before. 15 minutes later, its raining again.
    No thunder, so we didnt have to cancel anything.
    Oh, anyone who can guess the song i started out with gets a cookie
