Let's just say I'm not going to put my barber out of a job, but it looks and feels a lot better than it did. I'm sorta in between barbers I guess.. long story. But the time seemed right. I do believe I will go back to professionals at some point tho lol. Ran off to Twitter with everyone there but have noted multiple times how it was nice to be cordoned off from the rest of the world in a place like this vs that. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CAPE Posted July 12, 2020 Imagine being a weather forecaster in SD. For those who just want 'ideal" weather all the time, probably hard to match the climate there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

San Diego and? San Diego’s climate is so unique, it isn’t replicated anywhere in the US. If you want dry, you are going to end up with a larger seasonal range of temps.

Rhino16 Posted July 12, 2020 Has anyone stepped outside to see the Comet yet? The previous week you could see it really early in the morning, Tomorrowish you’ll be able to see it in the evening once it’s dark. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was actually out for an early morning run (4am hour) this morning but never saw it despite clear skies. I was looking towards the northeastern horizon for it as I ran.

I'm pretty sure @psuhoffman and @WinterWxLuvr are both teachers, but there might be more of you! Reply or send me a message on here if you might be interested. No pressure, and I'm happy to tell you more about it. Sorry I just saw this. Wasn’t on much. Crazy week at work then took some family time over the weekend. I would be glad to help any way I can if it’s not too late. Just PM me 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

George BM Posted July 13, 2020 1 hour ago, Rhino16 said: It might be an evening thing this week instead of a morning one... Correct. It was, however, only 5 degrees above the NNW horizon yesterday evening 80 minutes post-sunset (I did not see it). IIRC it will be 10 degrees above the horizon 80 minutes post-sunset by tomorrow evening (7/14) and up to 20 degrees above the NW horizon by 7/19 at the same time relative to sunset. All the while, however, it will probably ever so slowly be getting dimmer night by night as it moves away from the sun. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's funny how complicated the barber relationship can get. Thinking of the great Seinfeld episode on that. Twitter has its place, but so does this place. The volume of posts on Twitter can get overwhelming, and its easy for the quality to get lost in the noise. Plus, as you note, it's hard to compartmentalize topics. So, when I just want to find out what's going on with the weather, I have to wade through a lot of unrelated material. I keep it manageable by only following ~40 people. I don't know how people like you manage following thousands of people. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was down right oppressive and wearing a mask to watch the youngest Miss J compete I for one will be grateful for cooler temps. Although we did get rained on and that felt down right fantastic. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On those days I only follow the lists I've made vs my usual feed. While I don't follow thousands (less than 2K total) it does make it easier when you just want to see one topic and not 10 topics at once. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There's something to be said about a slower conversation. Plus I can't stay out of politics these days given the travesty of everything... so there's the angle of me potentially hurting myself by tweeting. I'm treating it like any other addiction for the moment. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
