I know 80 degrees will come back, won't last long at all, but how I live for 80 degreed days. Why waste energy complaining about 95 degree days. They endless reoccur over and over and over ! ......

The Wizard of Oz is 81 years old.

Today, if Dorothy were to encounter Men with no brains, no hearts, and no courage s
he wouldn't be in Oz, she'd be in Congress.

And if you research ( Google ) the recorded low for most Montana towns on any given day from early November through March, you will see they range from minus 10 to minus 50 or colder. Birrr... I did not know that and have no intention on moving there, especially now, buy the way most bears around here run from you.

When I was in college (in the 70s) I had a fascination with Montana and considered moving there. But times were different back then. I had no job offer and hadn't started a career so was basically broke. Buying enough gas to get there penniless and hoping something would turn up seemed like a really bad plan.

I you choose a great idea like going to northern Montana, Northern Canada or Northern Alaska?
Your really great plan is to rough out a mostly dark, Windy, Cyber winter ?
Take lots of Food, Money, Supplies like gasoline, etc with ya. There are none there !
I once drove up the Mountain outside Casper, Wyoming and realized if the Truck quit,
It would be hard to get back to people, I forgot to take a cooler full of ice wid me.
I then went back up in a couple of days and realized the Ice, well I couldn't carry it.
So again it would be a tough time getting back to Civilization cause all that was up there was
High plains sand and scrub brush + bad water if you found a pool.


Oz runs for Congressional Senate seat this year ! Wonder if he takes Quinine ?

↑ That's not life as we remember it ! ..........
We go to bed ticked off !
Roll and Toss half the night!
Wake up 20 minutes late every morning.
Tell the other workers we are sorry your late.
They spend the rest of the day picking on us.
Repeat situation that night !
Next day we try to pick on someone !
Repeat, Repeat, Repeat, Repeat, endlessly !
Lives caught up in 24 hour endless repetition !

One day we finally have gained the experience
to evaluate our lives, look for the good things
but have forgotten most of it !

"Book of Hoyle reproduction !"...... (Maybe read, "Would you Rather," instead)
