Hello, hi John

Good Christmas time Christmas time Santa is going to spank you. It's Christmas time Christmas time. Is that a traditional song of your people?

Mm-hmm. It's a Florida thing. Oh, yeah. Well, it's a North Florida thing. North Florida. Yeah, spanky Santa.

Every year he comes into your trailer and steals all your natural light.

Mm-hmm. I was a spanky Santa for a decade. Oh, that's right. And people come sit on your lap and talk about what they like.

Oh, and get spanks and yeah. Yeah. Yeah. There's a lot of lore around the man in red. Oh, the man in red they call him.

Mm-hmm. That's that's in central Florida. They call him like to talk to you. You know, it's trying to snow here. Is it really?

Yeah, I know you've been having an atmospheric river there. Yeah, it says here in the the the local fish wrapper says we're going to have

them. Then I mentioned I recently turned 55. Uh, we're going to be having eight days of rain, but no snow that I'm aware of.

Mm-hmm. But you're already for that, right? It's all context, John's context. Yeah, we're on tap for eight days of rain too, but they keep saying every day it's

going to snow and what it is. It's very frustrating for the children. Uh, because it does at some point snow and then also

rains. So the children look out the window and they go, it's snowing and they put their little suits on and they get their sleds and they run out and

they stand in the rain waiting for the snow to. Oh, it's it's so close. It's one of these things where every fifth drop of rain is a big, huge snowflake right now.

I see. So it's coming first comes down fluffy. Yeah. And then you get the stuff. Is that the rain that comes after that's going to make, you know, this doesn't affect children directly, but

hazard is driving conditions, right? Oh, yeah, but you know, Seattle, if you've ever listened to my podcast with my sister road rage, you will know that

Seattle drivers, every condition is a hazardous condition for them. They don't appear to have any

object permanence or memory of the past. So that every, everything that happens, it's like the first time it's ever happened and

no one knows how to handle it, even when it rains. Yes, there should be there should be a name for this. I mean, it's a well documented thing. I think

everywhere we talked about this. It rains that somehow makes liberates oil from the road. That's dangerous, but it's not just that. It's, it's, it seems to be a name for this

condition where like you should know that, okay, here's the thing. I've lived here for 22 years. And I'm still sometimes, I still sometimes space on the basics about living in San Francisco.

And I mean, I know I really should be used to it. I think, for example, I sometimes forget if I'm going to a part of town that's not where I live, you know, always the where the layers, like they say, but it's

going to be warmer almost everywhere else. You forget that you go over the top of the hill, and it's a sunny day in San Francisco.
