assault Posted December 26, 2019 Report Share Posted December 26, 2019 Australia weather: firefighters work to control bushfires on Boxing Day ahead of looming heatwave "Temperatures forecast to reach the mid-40s again as heat moves from South Australia to New South Wales by Monday" Apparently it won't effect me: the prediction is for temperatures in the low 30s here (Toowoomba, Queensland). We might get some of it a bit later, but it's unlikely to be anywhere that bad. Hint: 100 Fahrenheit is 37.7778 Celsius. 45 Celsius ("mid-40s") is 113 Fahrenheit. 33 Celsius ("low 30s") is 91.4 Fahrenheit. Add the effects of humidity to the latter though.

Cancer Posted December 26, 2019 Report Share Posted December 26, 2019 Didn't see any go down, but all I had was Mk I eyeball for targeting and bare hand for pointing. And they were low on my southern horizon, so had they gone down I might not have seen them do so in any case. assault 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The good guys interupted the summoning though... And this right up here ^ Well, that's the feeling I get from one of the worst Christmas songs ever written: The moon is rightThe spirit’s upWe’re here tonightAnd that’s enough Simply having a wonderful Christmas timeSimply having a wonderful Christmas time The party’s onThe feelin’s hereThat only comesThis time of year Simply having a wonderful Christmas timeSimply having a wonderful Christmas time It starts of as some sort of cult summoning ritual. A couple of hikers come along "Oy, see here! What's the the candles and the cloaks?" Cultists stare at each other wide-eyed for a moment, then grab the hems of their robes and start grinning and dancing.... "Simply. Having. A wonderful Christmas time!" It's right up there with that guy blubbering in soulful agony "Have a very merry Christmas...... And a Happy New Year...." while the children of the corn surround him and start with the dagger stabbing and the "AAAAAAHHHHH aaaaahhhhh __AAAAAAHHHHHHH__ aaaaaaahhhhhhh" Gads is that terrible..... AH! Found it: That is some creepy shi... stuff right there.... tkdguy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
