Forty days and forty nights of rain has pounded my brain into mush.\u00a0 Seriously, we\u2019ve had a phenomenal amount of water falling out of the sky on us for the last week or so.\u00a0 Based on the amount of water I\u2019ve measured in the water bucket I have out in my yard we\u2019ve had almost thirteen inches of rain so far and it\u2019s not letting up at all.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Right now, the rain is torrential and I see no indication that it intends to stop until this whole corner of New England slides off the mainland and deposits itself into the Atlantic Ocean.\u00a0 What I\u2019m waiting for is the idiot on tv to tell me about the drought condition that we\u2019re currently suffering through.\u00a0 It\u2019s inevitable.\u00a0 Apparently, the morons who run the water supply are incapable of understanding that doubling the population of the state means that it will be necessary to increase the water supply to compensate.\u00a0 Granted that is a monumental task but it has been done in the past and a supposedly progressive state won\u2019t shy away from stealing people\u2019s lands for a state boondoggle.\u00a0 But in our current Gaia worshipping mood the solution is to ration water until people decide to voluntarily die of dehydration to \u201csave the planet.\u201d<\/p>\n

Well, I\u2019ve snapped out of my Stasi induced funk and I once again feel that I\u2019ll outlast these buggers.\u00a0 I\u2019m an inherently optimistic man and I still believe that knuckling under to these cretins is a mistake and one way or another I\u2019ll escape them and live to see their nightmare system come crashing down.<\/p>\n

So, unless I drown in the biblical deluge that we\u2019re currently experiencing I intend to send out a few more rants and other words of scorn at our sad pathetic elites.\u00a0 Long may they whine and cajole and to no effect.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
