Punchline.

While I was in Williamstown, somebody made the "I could never live in Los Angeles" argument that a place needs seasons to break up the year.

Now, while I admit that, in theory, certain regular events can give a person a sense of regularity, I really object more to the kinds of changes that occur in most places. I mean, I like to break up my week too, but that doesn't mean I want someone to shut me in a meat locker on Tuesdays and Saturdays, then throw water balloons at me continuously on Wednesdays and Sundays.

ThuNYTX: 11:15. Yeah, I've gotten rusty.

Don't knock it 'til you try it. It's the companionship of the beef that makes it worthwhile.

I agree with Dan here. I know you hate the cold, but sometimes the snow is just so heartstoppingly beautiful. Also, I say I'm a pretty sweet slice of Grade A.

Agreed. Everyone knows Thursday is the best day for being shut in a meat locker.

You'd have to go to Australia for that!

California, of course, was the first state to institute "no water-balloon throwing" sections of restaurants.

Sadly, it's rarely enforced. Once some asswipe wouldn't stop throwing water balloons at me and I was forced to spit in his coffee.

You guys crack me up.

To be fair, we only need seasons when it's deep winter or deep summer. When it's nice outside like it's been this week, I have no objections.
