WTF,O?

When I was a little kid, I really wanted to be a weather man. I thought that would be the coolest job ever. Being able to predict what the weather would be five days from now was like magic to me. That, and I thought Harold Taft was just nifty. I tried in vain several times to call him at the TV station for about three weeks straight. Each time, I ended up talking with one of the other meteoroligists there, until he politely asked me to remove his number from my speed dial as he had work to do. Why I never followed my dream and became a meterologist, I will never know. But now, I realize I simply want to work for the weather channel so I can stand around and beat people up for stupid forecasts. At work, we have a TV. This TV always stays on the weather channel. It is terribly annoying to begin with, but then they go and upset me. As I was looking at the current weather status, there was a daily prediction. The high was 53, and the low was 54. Huh? Even worse, the current temperature at the time was 55. What?! I know I'm not exactly Einstein, but I did learn how to count in Kindergarten, and I don't believe 54 can be lower than 53. And currently 55? Don't let me find you! Then last night, I was looking at the same exact TV screen again to see how much ice to expect on my drive home this morning. The forecast for today... Rain mixed with freezing rain and sleet. Freezing rain AND sleet? Who comes up with this? According to my dictionary, sleet IS freezing rain!

At least I don't have to deal with Ice Pebbles!!!
