I remember when any comic could get a laugh by taking digs at weather forecasters, but that’s outdated now. They’re pretty accurate, although – as I was observing the other day – overly cautious.
To be clear I meant that jesters were famously the person who could make fun of the powerful and, relevant here, deliver bad news and not get executed.
Im actually enjoying this cold snowy winter. The last few have been warmer but kind of depressing. If I’m going to live in a winter city, I want the real thing!
