I always thought people were exaggerating when they talked about golf ball size hail stones.... until ten minutes ago, when I saw 2 or 3 of them bounce off our double glazed windows. I hope we dont see weather like this on the dibona this weekend; it rolled in in less than 30 minutes, which is not really enough time to get safe.
I also learned yesterday that calling your wife a cracker is generally a bad idea. even done in jest. even if she doesnt treat rice with respect and makes "rice salad".
