Title: Two Photos Worth MORE Than 1,000 Words
Post by: tt11758 on August 24, 2011, 09:18:07 AM
A picture is worth a 1000 words!  These two photos say it all  Just look at the paraphernalia that his "aides" have to carry into a school in order for him to speak to a room of school kids.

Still needs to have the podium, the teleprompters, the lights,the black boxes, and the secret service guy in back to be on the look-out for any terrorist-type-8-year-olds with tea partying parents.

I see a round carpet or mat that looks taped down in the BHO picture. 

Is that something "Presidential" or is it something already in the classroom?

I cannot make out what is pictured on it.

You know he said he'd visited 57 of the states and there were 3 more he'd get to.

Think positive, Hurricane Irene is supposed to hit Cape Cod, maybe it will level Martha's Vineyard.  ;D

The latest track has it going right over my town.  I'm having a "Good Night Irene!" party to celebrate a good blow!

By the time it hits New England, it'll be a Cat 1.  Nothing to worry about.  We just checked our supplies and we're fine.

Just need more beer!

Better than a blizzard, you don't have to shovel the 12-16 inches of rain I heard they are predicting.

They're just getting ready to replace the 100 year old bridge that got leveled next door from the March 2010 storms that went through here.  Good thing they haven't started yet.  My little burg will be underwater, good thing I'm twenty or thirty feet above that creek.

RE:   Hurricane Irene.

Local station has hired a new weather guy and he puts up ALL the various tracks from the different models.   One of them last night showed Irene veering west and bouncing off the SC coast then heading east out to sea.    The "official" prediction seems to be sort of an average curve between the dozen different "guesses" by the computer models.

IN FACT the National Hurricane Center says:

Quote
The National Hurricane Center does not generate a graphic of the guidance models it uses to produce its forecasts. Such graphics have the potential to confuse users and to undermine the effectiveness of NHC official tropical cyclone forecasts and warnings.

Heaven forbid someone like me might actually take the tracks and produce something meaningful from them.   Got to protect the serfs.

Just to add to the NHC elitist attitude.

That's the same thing that happened to Galveston in 1900.   The National Weather Service had an elitisst, we're-know-better-than-anyone attitude.   The Cubans had much more experience than the US in tracking hurricanes (remember this was before radar and before hurricane hunting airplanes.)   They tried to warn the US that a major storm was swinging it's way into the Gulf, but the NWS wouldn't listen.   The NWS response was to forbid communications between all the NWS offices and Cuba.
