So I finish dinner and I turn on the Weather Channel. There is some sort of tropical disturbance hitting Florida and betcherass, there is some dumbshit from the Weather Channel, standing out in the rain and wind in order to show the viewers that yes, it is windy there.
All together now: No shit.
I suppose their next trick is going to be holding an aluminum pole over their heads in a thunderstorm.
I see this every hurricane season; those lunatics are standing out in the wind and the rain to show us, yes, indeedy, it is raining and the wind is blowing. I guess they are going to keep it up until some day, a wind-driven 2x4 or a sheet of steel roofing comes blowing by and puts one of those idiots right into the finals for that year's Darwin Awards.
Maybe someone ought to suggest to the Weather Channel that having a bunch of meteorologists working for them who are too stupid to come in out of the rain is not exactly a sterling endorsement for the Weather Channel.
The ones your girlfriends warned you about.

I guess it's not really about telling the weather but rather about selling soap powder during the commercials. Sometimes you just have to poke at the Darwinian firewall to fill up the air time.
