Bottom line ... whoever owns the Weather Channel is a lying sack of poo.

Twenty-four hours ago Weather.com was threatening severe storms for the Dallas area today with golf-ball size hail, damaging winds and torrential rain of Biblical proportions — up to seven inches or more by Saturday — and all the local news stations were broadcasting FLOOD WARNINGS. So what do we get instead? A stupid cold front, a stinking quarter-inch of rain and NOTHING ELSE. I’m so disgusted I almost couldn’t eat sugar-free pie for dessert tonight. I think we’d all be better off reading “The Farmer’s Almanac,” which has been in print since the 1700s and has a higher accuracy rate than the entire crew of Weather.com’s overpaid, college-trained Einsteins. Bottom line ... whoever owns the Weather Channel is a lying sack of poo!

In other news, I might make potato pancakes and hot chocolate tonight if Sam doesn’t get home from work too late, and I’ve got a full day of laundry planned for tomorrow, including bath towels. And that, dear readers, was the Howdygram’s version of “Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous.”

Thank you for reading this.
