Noah's Ark

Going by the old saying that when it rains, God must be watering his lawn (I don't know if it's an actual saying; I just remember thinking it as a kid), God must have gone to the Supermarket and left his sprinkler on, since it hasn't stopped raining here recently.

It's definitely the rainy season here, so I guess it's supposed to rain. But after starting the rainy season off really dry with no rain, I saw a segment on the weather channel that was expalining the dry phenomenon. You knew, of course, that as soon as they made mention of how dry it was, that it would start raining buckets. And it did. I don't think it's stopped raining since that broadcast.

This past weekend was particularily bad; I saw footage of flooding in and around Kyushu, people's homes being washed away, and people shovelling mud and debris from areas that were likely once indoors.

To the big guy upstairs, you've left your sprinkler on. Please turn it off as you are wasting water.

...or at least move it to the midwest where we haven't had to mow our lawn in about a month.
