Snuggle Season turns into Tempest Time!

The weather write-ups over at The Other Paper really lose their flair when SnuggleScribe Jeffry Scott doesn’t write them. But any sense of nostalgia I felt was quickly replaced with the joy aroused by news that tonight and tomorrow should see some rain, with heavy showers possibly for this evening.

Every little bit helps, sure, but let’s hope the rain coming tonight is a steady, prolonged serving of angel tears rather than God’s wrath released upon our festering plot of excess and hedonism. If we get drenched, a lot of that could just flush right down the sewers and rush into the streams — or overwhelm the system altogether. Let us open our hearts to the heavens and our wallets to the televangelists and ask with the most heartfelt sincerity that God show us mercy in the form of a gentle and sustained drizzle. It’ll help replenish dwindling Lake Lanier and in turn add to our water supply, as well as give our agriculture and lawns a healthy drink.

Too bad Sonny’s in Japan. Just when you get the hell outta Dodge to get some business goin’ on overseas, things look like they might be perking up back home. Plus, I hear he’s a hoot when he belts out a stirring rendition of this gem.
