    F***ed up weather... What, you expect me to crunch in that?!

    While the northeast is experiencing heavy snows, we are going through a heat wave...

    Okay, report your anti-crunching weather here.

    My anti-crunching weather came in form of a two thunderstorm that produced tornadoes, power outages, and flooding. Needless to say, the power has been a little flaky

    Yeah it's been pretty intense the past couple of days, but we've needed the rain quite a bit, so I'm glad to see it. Better than 104 degree weather.

    USF is one of the worst college campuses i've ever been on and additionally I'm married so...

    I used to go to the Univ. of Missouri, now that was a college experience!

    It wasn't the heat that is bothering me. The CPUs are well over 80 degrees that day.

    Good thing that the weather is down to the 60s today. Earthquake weather right there...

    We've also been getting a "heat wave" lately - considering it's only the beginning of April, the wheather is way too warm already. Been over 20 degrees C (25 the last few days) for 2 weeks now, which means I won't be able to go skiing again this season.

    On the bright side, I had my 4th barbecue yesterday
    Grilled meat vs. Skiing... tough one
