Is it October 22nd yet?

Well, I'm in the Pacific time zone, and it's 00:33 on the 22nd as I post, so I guess there's still a few hours left in the 21st in Hawaii or other parts westward, so things might come to pass... On balance though, I'm pretty sure there'll be a sunrise tomorrow morning.

Well, it's 4:04am of Oct 22 PST and I'm still here. Nothing to see, back to the usual sin activities.

Unfortunately that didn't happen here. Solid overcast!

Col: same here, sadly, and rain to boot! Oh, well, it's always a good day when you are looking down on the daisies!

Poor old Camping, wrong again... :roll:

No sunrise here either. :(

So when are people going to stop listening to this guy and more importantly, when are they going to stop giving him money? Apparently apocalyptic prediction is a big business and the required accuracy makes the weather man look like an environmental choreographer. :shock:

My tranquil weekend plans died, so I guess there was some truth to his nonsense.

However I was greeted with this when the sun finally rose:

NArk, unless you got the slide backwards, it looks as if you are in the left seat of that thing?

Isn't that where the pilot sits? Not too familiar with the 99, but if it is anything like the 90 or 200 it is a bear to reach things like the starter-gen switches and fuel panel from the right seat. :wink:
