A tropical storm has already formed off of the East Coast
The weather outside indeed will be frightful..
So are YOU ready for months worth of scary tornadoes, hurricanes, winds, and rain? … I don’t think I am.
A follower of mine, NotEntirely, (and you should follow the site) said:
weather’s been weird lately out here, looked a lot like this for the last two days.
A few Twitter followers have also updated me on their fears of this season.
Is it just something we are feeling? Because I am feeling it. I am not weather vane or predictor or prognosticator, and the wonderful folks at the National Hurricane Center, Accuweather, and the Weather Channel would mop the floor with me on my weather knowledge.. But something deep down just makes me think this year will be one we will want to remember but will not be able to. Hope I’m wrong. Maybe I am. But if I’m not, as always, better safe than sorry. Prepare for the worst, expect the best. The reality is somewhere in the middle.

Centralia 'still burns'
Here we go again. Another story from major media on the quaint little town of Centralia, population almost no one. Population once was Over a thousand.. a mine fire changed that, and destroyed a road or two in the process.
The fire started 50 years ago this weekend, a Memorial Day somewhere in time.
And this year, another news article portrays the town as “macabre.” It is not macabre. It is a tragic story, of course. However, the typical yearly media portrayal that occurs, or the occasional blip on the radar that it gets in AP news alerts due to constant court cases, always gets me irritated. No one ever really wanted the attention that they got, even today. No one really appreciates that their little home town is now home to explorers and travelers from around the world—people who seem shocked that zombies aren’t walking around the street and fires aren’t smoldering. Instead, now and then, smoke rises.
Nonetheless, it’s a story. News media come and go. And they did in the 1980s, when NIGHTLINE broadcasted live (complete with a smoke machine for the effect.) And they come and go yet again. 50 years of this.. interesting.

There has been a ton of criticism for the hosting style of John B. Wells on Coast to Coast AM. But I like him. Tonight he is taking the show into a strange direction: Palmistry. Yes it’s a real thing. And Vernon Mahabal will explain all about it. Worth the listen should you be awake at 1am on the East Coast.
Had enough..? I have.
The week was long. The weekend will be long, too. And hot. And in some places, fears of tropical season are already arriving.
Here are the dreary highlights of the latter portion of Friday:

THE BUTLER DID IT!
A SCANDAL IN ROME HEATS UP.. Vatican police have arrested Pope Benedict XVI’s butler for allegedly leaking confidential documents and letters detailing claims of corruption..
Already the scandal has been dubbed Vatileaks .. Some documents involve the awarding of contracts in dubious ways.. some involve management of the Vatican bank.. The Pope said to be shocked. Maybe he is just afraid we’d be shocked too?
Revealed in the documents: Power struggles, corruption The Vatican had condemned the book as ‘criminal’ and the printing of the documents were a violation of the Pope’s privacy ..
The Pope’s privacy.. the hallowed holy halls aren’t private enough? .. No, we need to thicken that frock even more..
