    Riddle Sideways: oh! had not been following the path

    Adams Rubble: we used to all go the mall before we had AC on hot days

    Adams Rubble: popular cousin this week?
    Adams Rubble: ohhhh
    Riddle Sideways: into bedroom side of house
    Riddle Sideways: am not going to even pretend to understand weather
    Riddle Sideways: but, would Harvey have any effect toward the heat?
    Adams Rubble: it would block the sun but hurricanes can bring warm soggy air up from south
                   --BELL--
    Adams Rubble: Harvey met a Canadian Cold Front on way to NJ
    Riddle Sideways: wondering about it stalling west to east winds
    Adams Rubble: awful what happened in Texas
    Riddle Sideways: yes
    Riddle Sideways: kept hearing how bad Texas was doing and almost everytime there would be a mention of India, Pakistan, Banglidash
    Adams Rubble: oh yes


    Riddle Sideways: OK, here is a 'Fun' thing
    Riddle Sideways: it is really hard to find last Saturday's weather radar maps
    Adams Rubble listens
    Riddle Sideways: The Internet keeps everything
    Riddle Sideways: soooo, where are all old radar maps?

    Riddle Sideways: one can only look forward
    Riddle Sideways: the Now and Future
    Riddle Sideways: or maybe 2-3 hours ago
    Riddle Sideways: are the search engines knowing that nobody would really want those results?
    Riddle Sideways: and saving us from them?
    Riddle Sideways: Or did they 'go away'
    Adams Rubble: Is that a philosophical question of a technical one. hehe
    Riddle Sideways: thinking it might be a philosophical one
    Adams Rubble: Pema got to the maps and they are starting from the end
    Riddle Sideways: maybe technical/grammarical as to what the search phrase should be
    Riddle Sideways: YES!!!
    Adams Rubble: seriously, maybe you are searching the site and not the maps
    Riddle Sideways: hmmmm
    Riddle Sideways: prolly
    Adams Rubble: the maps are put up temporarily
    Adams Rubble: maybe connected to a generator
    Riddle Sideways: putting Saturday's date in search string finds the "Forecast" for last Saturday
    Riddle Sideways: hmmmm Forecast
    Riddle Sideways: is there even a word "Backcast"?
    Adams Rubble: :)
    Adams Rubble: another philosophical question?
                   --BELL--
    Riddle Sideways: beautiful sunset over Hangui

    Riddle Sideways: So many philosophical questions
    Riddle Sideways: when do answers come

    Adams Rubble: whoops
    Adams Rubble: do you know that control-s makes us jump up
    Adams Rubble: was trying to get my camera to work
    Adams Rubble: for the sunset

    Adams Rubble was never very good at philosophy
    Adams Rubble: faulty philosophical brain cells
    Riddle Sideways: was never very good at alt-control-shift combinations of Cam
    Riddle Sideways: faulty at answering or asking philosophicals
    Riddle Sideways: thinking very few would be faulty at asking
    Riddle Sideways: takes a real wise guy to answer them
    Riddle Sideways: Or the Fool on the Hill
    Adams Rubble: :)
    Adams Rubble: certainly true when one has faulty philisophical brain cells

    Riddle Sideways: might be onto something here... about religions
    Adams Rubble listens
    Riddle Sideways: each Religion has a book or many books with vague answering phrases
    Riddle Sideways: full of parallel stories that kind of answer philosophical questions
    Riddle Sideways: and so those that are really really bugged by their own questions
    Riddle Sideways: can open a book
    Riddle Sideways: and what seemed to be unanswerable
    Riddle Sideways: has maybe been answered

    Riddle Sideways: hmmm, on the edge of a theory here
    Riddle Sideways: mostly every Religion has that
    Riddle Sideways: from the oral histories of the village wise guy
    Riddle Sideways: who said "take 2 sugar pills and be happy"
    Riddle Sideways: to a big book of
    Riddle Sideways: lots of similar stories
    Riddle Sideways: all with happy endings
    Riddle Sideways: which Religion doesn't do that?


    Adams Rubble: There was a weather map maker who lived in the village of Sunraincluddark. He worked on weather maps all day well into the night. Everyday he would post a weather map up on the internet tubes. But the old maps soon cluttered up the site and no one could tell the old maps from the new maps. That night he prayed to the great internet god who lived well past the Gates of Apple. What can i do he asked? The great internet god wrote up a new program for the tubes which could tell the old from the new. All the people were happy until one day someone asked where are the old maps. Then everyone was confused and confused.

                   --BELL--
    Riddle Sideways: YES!!!!

    Adams Rubble: and the people all had a chance to meditate on the passage for 90 seconds

    Riddle Sideways: Yes!! that is how it goes
    Adams Rubble now has proven the theory about the faulty philiosphical brain cells
    Riddle Sideways: all those years of scholarly study prepared you to crank out that new/reworked story
    Adams Rubble: it is just sad
    Riddle Sideways: no
    Riddle Sideways: it has done the wonders
    Riddle Sideways: and produced
    Riddle Sideways: a smile
    Riddle Sideways: laugh
    Riddle Sideways: and happiness
    Adams Rubble: :)
    Riddle Sideways: ㋡

    Riddle Sideways: later today when some being presents you with the next silly question ... that seems philosophically leaning
    Riddle Sideways: instead of a shrug
    Riddle Sideways: just tell the story
    Adams Rubble: :)
    Riddle Sideways: of how it was worse in the Old Country
    Riddle Sideways: of how it is written
    Adams Rubble: yes, definitely worse in the old country until it was better
    Riddle Sideways: now wondering about a session title of "Religion Cures Philosophicals"
    Riddle Sideways: naaaaaaa

    Adams Rubble: Three philosophers walk into a bar..........
    Riddle Sideways: giggles
    Adams Rubble: The first says I'll have a half full glass of whiskey
    Adams Rubble: The second says I'll have a half empty glass of whiskey

    Adams Rubble: The third asks "what is glass?"


                   --BELL--
    Riddle Sideways: The barkeep passes 3 open books across to them

    Adams Rubble giggles. The man behind the desk says we do not serve whiskey in the library

    Adams Rubble 's fauly philosophical brain cells working awy today
    Riddle Sideways: to which the duck says, then give my friend a Bourban
    Adams Rubble: :)
    Adams Rubble: everyone knew the duck as nancy
    Riddle Sideways: tests have determine: you have the brain cells, they are working

    Adams Rubble: I hope this week is much cooler out there
