on my web page, instead of the usual heat index. the dreaded windchill rears its ugly head. ARGHHHHHH It must be fall in Iowa approaches.
Where are the longjohns dear ? Break out the ax for firewood, load up the larder with vittles, arghhhhhhhh…
Yeah, and the locusts are screaming themselves to death… :?
More cold weather ahead. Wouldn’t surprise me if we have that dreaded “s” word by Holloween…
I predict one of the worst winters we’ve ever seen… especially if this cool trend continues.
That would mean tempertures 20 degrees below normal.
(Aren’t I full of cheer?)

Uh oh…global cooling has started…or is it a new ice age starting 
Haven’t seen the willy worms yet to see what color they are… Probably still hiding as they’re confused with this so called ‘summer’ that we’ve had. Only one day at 90, mostly in the low 80’s and mid 70’s. Very unusual for this part of the midwest. We have had ‘s’ in mid-October and blizzards in mid-November. Global ‘cooling’ is right!!!
Squrrel tails are lighter than normal however, they’ve been all over the place gathering their winter goodies…and then there are those few that didn’t make it across the highway in enough time, nuts and all… oh well Road kills are up. :mrgreen:
In the UK you’d be arrested and locked up for years for going round looking for willy worms
oh well Road kills are up.
When I was working in DC I drove over to West Virginia on a few occasions to fill an otherwise empty weekend. One day I was convinced I’d come across the scene of a horrific road-kill accident. A car was at the side of the road with a huge deer across the bonnet (hood in US English). It was only as I got nearer that I realised the car was parked the other way round and the deer was on the boot (trunk). The road kill was actually a hunt kill strapped to the car for the journey home. :oops:

actually it was in West Virginia :lol: (it is state law in ohio that all people must make fun of WV)
if I am not mistaken, it is LEGAL in WV to take home hit deers for meat. So it may have been road kill
I don’t think it was road kill…
- The car wasn’t damaged
- The deer wasn’t damaged in the way it would be if it had been hit by a car
- The bullet hole was the final clue!
I remember some debate whilst I was in the area about it being legal in WV to take ANY road kill home to eat. I’m not 100% sure if that included humans though :shockingzap: :car24:
Wait till you do hit one, like at 3:30 in the morning, and it tears the h.ll out of your car, like about $6,000 worth. Wasn’t hurt and was able to get the car off the freeway exit where I hit it.
So quick too, one minute nothing and the next, it was there and no where to go. The semi following me did finish him off according to the State Police.
They are a problem on a well known motorcycle race track er, public road here. A guy, now forever aka “the deerhunter”, finding himself heading straight for one consciously gassed it rather than braking just to see what would happen (Darwin award candidate?). Witnesses claim he hit it amidships at well over 100, sliced it in two, and destroyed most of the plastic on his sport bike. He only had minor injuries.
Samari-Bike??? :lol:
