Good morning Liberty. This may be in the ‘be careful what you wish for’ category. I don’t look forward to a future day when the only place to see live coral and certain ocean dwellers is in an environmentally controlled oceanic museum. Stay well, as always …..

Magnificent photos Don. I hope the fellow in the last photo puts out a cold season forecast. Liberty as to your question I guess it’s the same reason the Bronx bombers are called the New York Yankees. Or it may have been the first one established in the city ergo the name. Not sure because I didn’t search. Stay well all, as always ….

Thank you Dark Star. No search needed this time. Pictorial imagination was enough. Stay safe, as always ….

Congratulations to the newly joined couple. Rob, after looking a bit I found and liked the blessing below. I also found a saying credited to Brendan Behan; “The most important things to do in this world are to get something to eat, something to drink, and somebody to love you”. Both have their own wealth of wisdom. As always ….

Perhaps more so if CW uses the word go. Stay calm, as always …

Good morning Anthony. Professionally for you, its often the two legged rodent variety. Stay safe, as always ……

Anthony is newly married so he does have some justification. Stay well all, as always …..

If that’s the case Tip, then NYC matches and raises Boston for the first cold season without a daily maximum temperature below freezing. Sadly the odds may be in our favor. Stay well, as always ….

Anthony it’s been 12,000 years since our south Brooklyn area was akin to the present coast of Greenland. I read an article about a Dad in North Florida. He bought a snow maker so that he can give his and the neighborhood children the experience of snow falling. He waits for that rare day when the temperature drops into the upper 20’s and creates a mini blizzard for the children.(first photo below) Perhaps our own city could do the same in public parks. Sadly the natural variety will only get rarer as the years pass. I will enjoy the very few days my postage stamp is dressed in frozen white. Stay well, as always ……

A tree still grows here, any way it can. Stay well and please come back anytime. As always …

If dementia is delayed in me I will have to give most of the credit to the weather forum. Thank you Liberty and many other members whom by their posts have sent me on searches, so I can attempt to understand what the hades they are talking about. My latest adventure was tree sexuality. (Please no woodpecker or knothole replies). I was introduced to the terms Monoecious and Dioecious. It was fascinating to find out that my ever bearing oak, from the beginning till the acorn hits the ground, (or me) is Monoecious. If you have a cotton wood or red/silver maples, they are Dioecious. (Male tree or female tree). Damned if I know how you’d tell the difference when it’s a sapling. Below are photos of my all in one oak and my what ever it is maple. Thank you Liberty and others because it is thought provoking posts that will keep me thinking/searching, so that in the days/months/years ahead I can still find my own way home. Stay well all, as always ….

For all the Moms and the memory of … our love today and every day. As always ….

Good evening CW and thank you for your continued civility. Perhaps the question/discussion should be how/how fast are we, as a species, affecting the cyclical change of the climate. Stay well and have a good night, as always …

Good morning Anthony. My mercury special, at 09:50, under the overcast, pretty much matches the Park. Stay well, as always ….

We may need a crises intervention team. Anthony posted “Pizza is gross in Rhode Island” … in the New England sub forum. As always, …..

This Italian sourced Connecticut seafood pie looks good. As for … (Wtf) … that’s forky’s under the bridge training meal. It’s also, on occasion, offered to special guests. Buon Appetito, as always …

Good morning everyone after reading through the enjoyably posts and checking my over half century old mercury thermometer at 07:52, I decided to listen to an old S and G favorite. I may move on to a refrain from ‘Annie’ next. Stay well, as always ….

… and by consequence/legacy our future evolves into a match for present day Venus or Mars. As always ….

16:51 in the shade the postage stamp mercury is still pretty much matching the parks 15:51 temperature of 62.1 degrees. As always …

Possible relocation site for the Central Park ASOS? As always ……

Gives an updated meaning to the ‘ignorance is bliss’ axiom. As always ….

My postage stamp mercury special, in the shade, at 3:30 and under partly sunny skies is running cooler than Central Park. As always…

Good morning S19. It reminds me of the lyrics from ‘Both Sides Now’: I’ve looked at clouds from both sides now … from up and down and still somehow … its clouds illusions I recall … I really don’t know clouds at all’. As always …..

The Postage Stamps old fashioned Woolworths special agrees. As always ….

I could never have the courage, easily shown by DIT, to spar with the professionals and well versed hobbyists. Of course, as per Tips comment, “it’s all fun”. As always ….
