Is It Windy Where U Are?

Gusts up to 50mph near the Buckeye Media Hut. YIKES! Told Nurse Jeff to load the Gremlin trunk with sandbags so we could drive on I-10. Unfortunately there's no trunk in a Gremlin, so guess we'll be staying put.

On the plus side, with these winds tonight Lumberyard 14~Forty will blast into Truth or Consequences, N.M. like a local...even with 52 watts!
 
The winds were pretty bad last night at Lumberyard 14~Forty as the Goldminers had to huddle around a campfire to have their dinner. Nurse Jeff filmed what was a goin' on...and it just didn't smell right: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9zXygCaEIME
 
I'll be willing to bet the Gremlin reached new heights of fuel economy and top speed on the way east along I-10 from the BMH last night.

I saw pieces of Kleenex that were exceeding the speed limit last night!

I figured a little Tom Lehrer might class up this thread, but alas even Poisoning Pigeons in the Park misses the mark. However, one of the satirist's most prized reviews covers it (obvious liberties are mine):


"(Dr Akbar's) muse is not fettered by such inhibiting factors as taste!" ;)
 
If it got any windier, Tammy Vo of KPHO would be teaching us how to tape up our windows and fill sandbags.

Because...MONSOON SEASON IS COMING SOON!!!!! OMG! HABOOBS! ARE YOU PREPARED??????

Here's a high wind travel tip for you Good Doctor:

(1) Remove the spare tire from the cargo compartment tire well in the G-Car.
(2) If there is no spare tire in the cargo compartment tire well skip to step 3.
(3) Fill the spare tire well with several bags of Quikrete in the handy dandy 40lb bag.
(4) For a permanent installation mix the Quikrete with water and you are set sir.

Always glad to help anyway I can ;D

And a tip of the fez to you, Metroplexual voice of KLUV HD~Two!

The Quickrete has an added advantage - it'll stop the rust from creating more holes in the spare tire well ;)

Nurse Jeff and I wuz listening to Lumberyard 14~Forty and their transition from worn-out oldies (like you play) to the Golf show at 8am. Shades of the infamous carrier dump, as instead of waiting for the song to be over, they just do a quick fade and go to the guys with the big putters :eek: You'd think with all the revenue that two hour show is bringing in, Gumpdusky could figure out how to switch from music to a talk show without taking an audio dump.

But other than that, how's the chow these days at Joe T's in Foat Wuth?

Thank you kind sir, and if you'll allow me a shameless plug, I am the "Metroplexual voice" of KJKK HD~Two as well! Yes!!! you to can thrill to the sounds of ME imaging the sounds of the Manly Men of the Rat Pack era on "The Strip". It's the smooth sounds of Dean, Frank, Sammy, and the "takin us up to news time instrumentals" we know and love so well on KJKK HD~Two or on a internet connection near you.

My secret wish is to join the "Gold Miners" as I stroll up the ramp of "Kookie Lend Me Your Comb" maybe you can prod catfish (lower case c) and help me make that happen???

Wow..that's quite the fantasy, but you are the Metroplexual Voice of 2 HD~Two stations! Someone else will have to prod catfish (lower case c) as the last correspondence we had with him, c'fish wanted the Nurse and me to spring for lunch at Lo-Lo's. Jeez...don't you engineer-types have an expense account?

Sadly no...
Unless the price of solder goes down...Then MAYBE promotions will toss a few Chick-fil-A nearly expired coupons our way, but then you have to stay for the sermon before you get the soup...
