Tom, when are you going to invent that magic 'delete' button so I can dump these clouds into the recycle bin?

Thanks, guys. I don't feel so bad, now! 
Carol, there's thread for you in off topic: "Don't You wish."

I hope my CSC at least holds  (or maybe improves slightly ). Transparency and seeing could be better but I guess I should feel fortunate if I can see anything at all.

Michael, I'm just thankful the white doesn't represent snow. 
Tom.. your 'don't you wish' thread is what I was hinting at. 
Wouldn't it be great if CN had a chat room? All of us bad weather victims could have ourselves a big old 'pity party' tomorrow night.

Looks like the eclipse will be eclipsed. Oh well, I want to watch the World Series tonight anyway.
