There's a great yellow dragon in the sky! And it burns!

So the sun has returned after a few days of rain, and I will be on the balcony reading and drinking tea...as is my wont. But the man in the box says that the rains shall return as early as tomorrow. I hate the man in the box, and I hate the sky.

This sort of weather is why I am not a partisan of the Mid-West. Indeed, I remain a champion of my native land, the Rocky Mountain West and Southwest of this great nation; which land is superior in all respects to its counterparts to the east. Those who wish to debate the relative merits of the eastern US are encouraged to do so...but you will not prevail.
