EVERY Water WHERE

Here are the words to the triple acrostic:

Eco-logic tells us we owe Life to melt & flow
Vessels for libations are best fill’d with aitch-two-oh
Each & every droplet put in free fall is a sphere
Raise the temp to have a steamy scene with one held dear
Yet when iced it turns a thirst to Gratitude sincere

And above all that, and below “Snow cone” and “Fog bound” and “Rain man” and “Cloud Nine” and “Hail bop” and “Ice scream,” in tiny letters, I wrote “NOT PICTURED: AL SLEET, THE HIPPY DIPPY WEATHERMAN.” This is, of course, a tip of the hat to the late, great, lamented GEORGE CARLIN, whose spaced-out meteorologist once caused Johnny Carson to nearly laugh himself out of his chair. That clip is easily findable on YouTube, and if you haven’t seen it, and need a good belly laugh, please check it out!

    Hail-o,
    I love the long history of water, formed in the primeval interstellar dust clouds, raining down in cometary storms on the early Earth, then endlessly cycling through the Earth’s crust, leaching out minerals, silver and gold and copper boiling up the black smokers on the ocean floors….

    I’m sure you know this classic, but it always makes me laugh…

      Had not seen that. Bet they got a few signatures. 🙂 Thanks, Michel!
