  1. Shapiro may have a point. Work does gives us purpose, after all.

    You are a lawyer, you have never sweat through your shirt working. Your "work" has been in a climate controlled room. There are those of us who retired from the military then went on to jobs that had us out in the elements. We are worn and hurting by the time we hit our 60's while you have polished a desk chair your entire career.

    1. Hear Hear. I have worked construction mostly framing and carpentry for 35 years in the Southern heat and blistering cold both. I am 52 and 13 more years is max. Beat and broke.

  4. When Little Benny Shapiro gets to near legal retirement age, he is going to shut his pie hole and retire. Between having 35-year-old bosses and being fed up with the public, retirement is the best thing since sliced bread. I've been retired for 14 years. Every day is a holiday and every meal is a feast.

  5. Shapiro has no idea what sixty plus hours of oilfield in West Texas translates to in Miles on the body.

  6. 25K lighting strikes in one day? That's normal for Florida. Been normal for Florida since the beginning of radar and satellite meteorology. Been normal for Florida since way before Europeans ever came ashore.

    I used to live in Brevard County. Lightning setting the peat bogs on fire was a normal thing every spring, summer and fall, and even in winter.

    I watched some guy in a sailboat get majorly fried right out of Patrick AFB's small boat harbor.

    Seriously, this is like saying "OMG, it's freezing in Florida, what's happening? Must be chemtrails and HAARP and evil reptilian!!!" No. It's normal. First time I saw snow in real life was Dec. 25, 1973 in Satellite Beach, FL (south of Patrick which is south of Cape Canaveral.) Orange groves from the FL/GA border down to Orlando froze and were killed between 1973 and 1976. And this wasn't new. Florida's pineapple crops were wiped out by cold in the late 1800s, to be replaced by citrus groves. It's even not-an-unusual-thing for snow in Miami once every year. And this is why lots of people should have been hanged for designing and allowing a single o-ring that cracked at 45 degrees F for the Space Shuttle, which was supposed to be launchable year round from the Cape and from Vandenberg AFB in California (which also saw lots of ground frost during the winter.)

    Back to the subject, Florida's been known as the Lighting Capital of the United States for a very long time.

Put it here ... I can't wait to read it. I have the Captcha turned OFF but blogger insists it be there. You should be able to bypass it.
