Still the Weather
Bleak. Dark. Drizzly. Looks like winter, except with green leaves and flowers. But they say tomorrow will be better. And the trees and shrubs are very happy with all the rain.
Weather, n. The climate of an hour. A permanent topic of conversation among persons whom it does not interest, but who have inherited the tendency to chatter about it from naked arboreal ancestors whom it keenly concerned. ...
Ambrose Bierce, The Devil's Dictionary.
Don't know if I agree with that, but it's a diversion for a rainy day.
