then why say “they say…”?

Ya know?

Does it have to be topic-related? A lot if otherwise.

But if: Yes, but I don’t snitch. (How much do you offer?)

And I plead the 5th, just in case.

No….I don’t know!!!….What???

We’re not mind readers. Well most of us aren’t.

Winters here have warmed since the 1970’s – an average of 5 degrees the weatherman said last night. The 20 below days have dropped by about a third.

You think winters are long now? Just wait 10,000 years when the winter solstice is at apogee (furthest point in the earth’s orbit around the sun) Rather than at perigee (closest) as it is now.

Who are they again?

No, but they do.

The earth’s rotation is slowing so the days are getting longer.

“They” seem to know so much and be blamed for so much but we never get to meet them…

They babble a lot.

Ugh, not to me. It seems like the oppressive, sweltering heat and humidity comes earlier and stays later than it used to. I like to go outside and be able to breathe, not to mention sleep comfortably at night. I’m weird for loving this weather, I know….

I agree, if by “longer” you mean shorter.
