EXCERPT

Mother Nature is a hussy
BY DAVID JAKIELO

Women having mood swings is one thing. They are entitled to mood swings with their menstrual cramps and such. However, it is a completely different story when that woman is Mother Nature, who lately has been acting like a downright hussy.

I don't know why Mother Nature is filled with rage, maybe someone left the toilet seat up or perhaps she is coming off a bad breakup. Whatever the reason, she has caused at least 50 people to die with her frigid temperatures, snow, ice and low-pressure system (I'll give her a low-pressure system!) Meteorologists are the only happy people because they are actually predicting the weather correctly for a change.
