Darn Winds

Postby WanderingBlues » January 8th, 2012, 9:43 am

I can fish heat, cold, rain, snow, fog, and biblical proportion plagues of insects (actually a good thing!). But this wind in SoCal is ridiculous. It's been sustained at the house at about 20-25' with gusts at 60. Guess I'll be an Internet troll and watch Tebow flop today instead.

It's howling down here too. I was hoping to get out and fish the surf after having a cold for a week, but not today.

I hope it blows here, I'm tired of the damp thick fog you can cut with a knife!

Say what you will about his mechanics, but, yeah, he's a winner at his core. What a great game. My hat's off to him.

But, you think he can maintain against the Patriots? That's a whole other level.

Nope - they will get slaughtered, just like they would have gotten slaughtered if Rothlisberger had been able to be as mobile as he was before he got injured. Brady is going to pick them to pieces.

Fish the beach with a off shore wind and you look like a genius caster. LOL

Wanted to take the tube out on Sunday... Wound up watching the games.. As for the Bronco's game, I get up just before OT started and used the restroom... Came back to Denver celebrating. My timing sucked. More timing that is going to suck, heard that we have more winds coming on Friday and Saturday.. I really need to take up sailing!!! Why can't it be windy during the week and nice on the weekends?
