...if you make it through December .. maybe you'll be fine...
Get ready to hear about asteroid 2012 DA14. It hurtling towards the planet earth and speculation is building online concerning how close to earth it will get — or if it will hit earth..
And just when you thought Armageddon was going to occur December 2012. Maybe the Mayans were off by two months.
Here is the storyline: A newly discovered asteroid named 2012 DA14 is about to come close to earth. Lots of sources online, for better or worse, are proclaiming the end to be near..
But lots of confusion also exists on the asteroid, too.
For example, this site says it will be closer than some satellites.
The always fun RT.COM speaks of it in a more apocalyptic tone..
And finally..
NASA.. the experts in all this..Well.. they are watching it too and giving us lots of graphs and numbers to showcase the whole event.
And finally, here is a YouTube video with horrific music showing us the progression.
And after all of this, I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t a little creeped out by the chances that earth could face a perilous future.. But this soon? February next year?
Asteroid 2012 DA14 is too close for comfort. And maybe if we make it through February 2013 we will just say .. it was close. Hopefully. If we’re here. I suppose live every day of this year like it’s the last, eh?
Brooms are standing on their own again
I think it has something to do with gravity. Or the earth.
Or this: A fad!
And it happened before. Just Google it.
But that doesn’t mean I didn’t post a broom standing on my Facebook tonight. After all, it’s fun to hop on the Viral Bandwagon now and then.
Sometimes there is no recovery.. This image hit me a little more than others from the tornado outbreak.. These two folks who appear in front of a mound of wreckage may have been surmising their own house.. the comfort they know was taken off of the ground and moved forever. Away.
And now they simply stand and stare.. in wonder as the wander around to try to salvage any memories of the times that were. Maybe lucky enough to find an old photograph .. maybe they’ll be happy if they find a memento that was stuffed in a drawer in the house that is not just laying on top of the debris.
I don’t know their story. And as a matter of fact it is their personal story and their own business to know their story. So I don’t have to know or want to.. but I can only imagine that their story, and a big number of other people too, are going through a re-write of a story.
Their lives shaken and torn apart .. fabric of security of a home. That is important. It’s a foundation. A place of small luxury in some instances.. and a place of happiness and privacy. Ripped apart.
No, sometimes, there is no recovery.
Don’t you agree…
There is no recovery…
How can you look at a photo like this and not agree?
The total average of tornadoes in the month of march 94
The total number of tornadoes yesterday? 95
Global warming? Nah
I was wrong earlier.. well not wrong but way off. I said 70+ tornadoes but didn’t realize it was up to 95.
The previous record was set in 2006 (not long ago, eh?) .. Broken now if all these are confirmed.
A record that I don’t think anyone really wanted to beat..
Not out of the woods yet with this storm system.. And the death toll sadly isn’t done rising..
Violent storms kill 31, death toll could rise
But even more: the storms continue today. So despite the media reports of the storm being written in past tense, don’t let your guard down if the sky above is stormy.. Follow your local weather—and maybe it’s time to get a NOAA weather radio. Good investment for times like yesterday and today..
The photos and stories coming from the heartland of America are tough..
Lives and limbs lost due to the tornado outbreak.. And even more, an entire town has been wiped off the landscape due to severe weather—severe weather that just doesn’t seem right happening this late in winter.. or early in spring, depending on what your view of the seasonal change is.
As a matter of fact, the 70+ tornado reports (if all confirmed) will blow away the typical overall number for March in general—70 plus in just one day with an entire month to go.
And speaking of not being out of the woods yet, tornado warnings yet again abound: All the way from Alabama to parts of Northern Florida.
It goes without saying but I’ll say it anyway: Prepare and be aware. Watch what is above and know what is below.
This may be a very long and drawn out spring and summer of severe weather. Don’t be surprised if someone today believes that the Mayan calender is right after all..
What's your take on Limbaugh? Think he fell off the wagon?
Typical Limbaugh.. Gets more attention by saying something outrageous .. This time though he looks really bad and it could produce consequences for him… He’s a major figure so I’d assume he cannot be fired… But this could really continue to blow up and then who knows..

The world lost Davy Jones today at the age of 66.. Known for being in the Monkees of course..
Therefore: The song of the day—who doesn’t know every word and sing along?
While Daydream Believer may have been the most famous song the Monkees performed.. While Anne Murray tried to redo the magic of the Daydream Believer in 1979, it fell short.. especially on a day when Davy Jones leaves the world.

So...If we make it through December we'll be fine?
Just when you thought the only thing to fear in December 2012 was the end of the Mayan calender and subsequent apocalypses, enter into the news fray this item of importance: Ben Bernanke is warning the nation of impending doom. A ‘fiscal cliff’ .. coming in January 2013…right as the new years eve ball (hopefully) drops on a nation that is relieved they weren’t destroyed by fire and brimstone.
So is it a relief when Ron Paul predicts that the FED will self destruct…?
Not at all, I suppose. The cliff just gets more steep..
A leap day to remember--and forget.. and recover from all the same..
I am beginning to get a very eerie feeling about this spring and summer coming up. If tornadoes are already occurring this bad (12 killed as violent storms ravage Midwest, South…) I think they will get even worse over the next few weeks and month or two.
We have had an abnormally warm winter. While few complained about unseasonably high temperatures all year with no measurable snow, I did worry. I wanted the snow to create springtime melting and growth.. I wanted the cold to kill the flu, bugs, and ticks. Nothing of that nature occurred. Bugs are already creepy and crawling.. ticks never went away..and the flu? Everyone is sick. Warmth like this isn’t good.
And now the deadly tornado outbreak today and tonight. I didn’t go to Penn State for meteorology, but as sure as I can say that Joe Bastardi is on my twitterfeed I know this: Storms this big and strong this early is foreboding. Supercells that decimate entire towns in winter..? Well just imagine what the spring will bring.
The leap day tornado outbreak started today.. and as of tonight it continues…
Hope I’m wrong.
Really. I hope I’m wrong.

I think I am going to write a book about parenting..
Would anyone out there who follows me read it?
Would people out there want to buy it?
Give me guidance.. give me something. Anything. Give me an answer…
And really.. are there too many “parenting” books to begin with anyway?

A parody for parents: Thomas the unstoppable train engine.
My son loves Thomas the train. I like him, too.. And this video completely made my belly laugh. Do only parents laugh at this…?

Cumulus dropping Coast to Coast AM in multiple markets
This is a pretty big deal for those who like the radio that talks about strange bumps in the night—but maybe also not surprising just as well.
"Red Eye Radio" is replacing Coast to Coast AM with George Noory is multiple markets.
There is a lot to this new change in a lineup. However, regardless of ‘why’ the show is being dropped, the fact it is being dropped it a major development in radio.
Art Bell officially ended his relationship with Coast to Coast AM in 2010. And since then listeners in massive numbers yearned for his return. He has not yet, and instead George Noory has boasted that he may get a contract renewal until 2018 (long after that whole Mayan Apocalypse) ..
With the new news of Coast being dropped of of pretty big markets, being replaced with a late night conservative political show, what will become of the little UFO program that could created by Art Bell? …maybe the return of Art Bell?
Don’t forget: Art Bell retired before (ok lots of times) .. but one time he retired someone by the name of Mark Siegel took over. Affiliates dropped. Ratings dipped.
Could we be re-writing the same chapter all over again?
