The Weather of the Future

Just 5 minutes of this Fresh Air interview was enough to make me stay up all night thinking about the water table in the SW United States.

Apparently a lot of my time now is spent thinking about what makes me cry. To that end, I started a new secret Twitter feed.

I would like to expand upon a recent piece about the saddest movie scene of all time. My thoughts are that science is wrong in this instance. The most tear-inducing scene has to be from Radio Flyer or A League of Their Own or an old standby like Terms of Endearment. Or maybe I was born too late to appreciate Jon Voight tears?

I call BS on this piece from NPR's All Songs Considered department. There is no mention of Landslide or Silver Springs? Are they not human?





And for my dad:
