on my radar: A-town and 77 degrees!

Atlanta is warm and dry this 10th day of December; way too warm and way too dry, neither being a good thing considering the drought! Where there should be tens of feet of water in the lakes that feed our water supply we are currently barely ankle-shallow in agua to keep the city hydrated, and now we get temperatures in the upper 70's! As smashing as a tan looks in December, this tropical spell isn't going to help keep the water around! Apparently all those prayers got lost somewhere in the stratosphere or god just said no.

I wonder if god applies a triage policy to all of his incoming calls? Maybe Huckabee needed the boost to his campaign more than Atlantan's need water? Dogs across the metro area must have some pull with the powers that be (is god a dog person?) seeing how Michael Vick got a nasty 23month sentence today- although it would irk me a little bit if PETA is so well connected!

Whatever the case may be, and as lovely as this weather is, if you are there god, it ain't Margaret calling, just me- but don't you know that already (prayer ID or something like that)...how about just cooling the weather down 10 degrees or so...and a smattering of rain, (and a Seahawk super bowl, and a 8 win UW football season next year)...cheers!

No, this just doesn't feel right. Those are not my top requests...yes to the Seahawks and UW football, but could ya do something to get Sherri Shepard off the air, end the writers strike and make Bush and the war go away? Cheney too! That's more realistic.

These are all very reasonable demands. I'm stunned the prayers didn't work. Don't worry though, if it dumps in March, they will take credit for the prayers and claim it as a success.

Go Seahawks and Huskies. I forced myself to watch the Hawaii/UW game live while in Chicago. Not smart.
