I'm thinking that this is perhaps a first. I don't think anyone's posted from a Chess Museum before. But, uh... Morgan hopped on the computer here, and well... you get the idea.

Are the two of you using the same PC? If not their must be a proxy or gateway of some kind there, seeing as your IPs are exact matches. :)

Yeah, they actually had more than one there, but we just switched off with the one closest to the air conditioning vent. :D

Air conditioning this time of year?

Is envious as he sits at home with an inch of fresh snow on the ground outside.

Miami FL: it was about 83 outside.

goddamned New Yorker weathermen "Nice and warm!"

grah, FU. I want it to drop into the 40s at night, and no warmer than 72 in the day.

I'd like it to be above 32 degrees at night. x_x

Lately I think the average at night is in the low 20s.

I miss Chicago and the cold air... I think it rarely went over 54 degrees over there.

I've gotten about four inches of snow so far, and I live in New Mexico! I even got out of school early too. But now all it is is wet, and muddy. The snow melted...

Alpha: you've got those things called mountains. I think the highest elevation in FL above sea level is maybe 600 feet.

<a href=http://www.wunderground.com/US/OR/Troutdale.html>How's the Weather you ask?</a> Its 47 degrees, make that 44 with windchill right now...

Pouring down rain, and I *do* mean pouring. We had freezing rain on Friday. And I *still* do not own a proper jacket!

I wish it was that cold, I want SNOW! If it snows, then they close the outlet mall I work at...and then we get to go home, and STILL GET PAID! Its a great system. We're all praying for snow.

If it gets much colder here than it is now, its too cold to snow. :x

LV: Being in the upper 80's-90's with 100% humidity is not fun. :|

BOO FREAKIN HOO

I can't abide people who whine about weather.

In Alabama, it can be anywhere from -2 to 108 degrees, and usually gravitates to extremes. Tack on a constant 100% humidity to it all, and you can get hurricanes, tornadoes, flash floods, hailstorms, ice storms, blizzards, etc etc etc. In the summer I've seen flash fires pop up from the heat, and yet its so humid it feels like your sweating your soul out of you skin. Then again, I've waded through blizzards with snow drifts taller than me. Although my favorite was going to get some chinese food with Akrabbim a year ago, and getting stopped at a red light while a second tornado in the day proceeded to drop down and annihilate half of Tuscaloosa.

which is like 20-something, Fahrenheit. Yeah, same temperature here in Birmingham. It warmed up a bit, but now its rainy.

At least it isn't snowing outside. Saying that, Newcastle never seems to get any decent snow - just slush :\ Bah.

I remember March of '93. You could step outside and disappear into a sea of white. I went through a snow drift and couldn't see over the top of it.

I've never been to Disneyland, but if its similiar enough to Disney World, I prolly won't think its very good.

I do like Busch Gardens tho. Good rollercoasters are teh win!

Meh, I have to be dragged to Orlando in the middle of Febuary for two weeks. Watch me miss a huge snow storm up here. Las Vegas is still the best.
