The significance of Rainbows:
PROMISE- whatever hardships you are experiencing you will be brought through the storm
HOPE - never give up! Ever
POWER - have trust and know that there is power and a plan to get you through difficulties
MERCY - through Love you can have mercy and thereby extend grace

Double Rainbow earlier this morning

Thanks to two friends who called me this morning about the rainbow--I would not have known about it as it was behind my building. One thing that most people never notice is that the sun is always behind you when you face a rainbow. The other thing is that the center of the circular arc of the rainbow is in the direction opposite to that of the sun. The rain, of course, is in the direction of the rainbow and it was sprinkling slightly as I took this photo.

This is the first time I have ever seen a complete rainbow. It was magnificent! It started to rain as I took this shot.

Sunday's Rainbow


A single ray of light contains the seven colors of the rainbow and so does the human spirit, which reveals itself through seven degrees of consciousness according to this post on Facebook.Sounds good to me!

As Citizens Against Unfair Taxation started its campaign on Sunday to enlighten all of those who will be voting on the General Obligation bond that will put a stronghold on all property owners for over 30 years, this rainbow was a telltale sign of the reward that awaits at the end of the rainbow on August 26th--NO new taxes..

No trust; No bond.

Lake Worth Chronicles - A Parody - Part III

Comment Up

The former bloggers, Windy-Runt and Les Lackman, finally make it to the fish house.

Hermit Robertson: Hey, it’s Windy-Runt and Les Lackman, two of my best customers!

Les Lackman: Hermit,you have the best fish in town!

Hermit Robertson: I owe it all to my fish girls, Loritta Shatz, Narine Burnt and Piggy Fishbottom. Those girls can clean any fish in nothing flat. Loritta chops off the heads and Narine and Piggy clean and filet the rest. Piggy does eat the occasional catfish researching it to death but that’s okay. She’s a big gal and needs to keep up her strength.

Windy-Runt: Hermit, is it true that our ex-city manager, Nike Bornstone, is up for parole again?

Hermit Robertson: Yep. That’s a sad tale for sure.

Les Lackman: What exactly happened? It’s been so long ago…

Hermit Robertson: It happened right after the baseball stadium in old JPP got blown up by the radical male cheerleaders, Martian Passed, Grim Stapherd and Barty Illfeld. City Manager Nike Bornstone went crazy. He thought he was a pirate, kidnapped city clerk Pom Garcia, and tried to hijack the Casino Cruise gambling ship. Poor Pom, an angry mob of senior snowbirds, denied their rights to gamble, trampled her. She was so close to retirement, too.

Windy-Runt: How tragic!

Hermit Robertson: The only attorney that would defend Bornstone was ex-city attorney Gin Tivoli. Then Bornstone had the bad luck to get federal judge Denley Dorsii.

Les Lackman: Dorsii? There’s no tougher judge than Dorsii.

Hermit Robertson: Right. Well, the only person Gin Tivoli could get to speak on Bornstone’s behalf was former Lake Worthless mayor Ron Ex-lax. When Dorsii asked Bornstone to make a statement, he stood up and started shouting “Arghhh, Arghhh!"  Poor Nike Bornstone got sixty years in a Federal prison.

Thom Ramitchyoho, the day old bread salesman, has been eavesdropping on the conversation. At the mention of Bornstone’s name he begins weeping, trips over an empty rainbow colored can of Dunty Moor stew, and is almost run over by a speeding segway taxi, operated by Bobo Allende, Lake Worthless rat catcher.

Hermit Robertson: On a happier note, I managed to get my hands on a couple of copies of Kat McShiverin’s latest novel. “Your Life Sucks Compared to Mine.” Our local Kat got her start writing petitions.

Les Lackman: Wow, she really looks good for her age.

Windy-Runt: You’d look good too, if all you had to do was go to spas and live on your own private island, provided by Lynnley Andershine, of course.

Les Lackman: I think that they used to call it “Cuba.” Don’t be bitter. Windy-Runt, Kat Mcshiverin does happen to be the bestselling author of all time. I should have learned from Lynnley Andershine when I had the chance instead of my being a revisionist!

Everyone looks up as emergency vehicles fly by, sirens blaring, headed towards the Gulfstream Hotel where Scud Maxwealth is hanging from an illegal banner.

More to come...

What a Rain

Comment Up

Totally under-estimated--this was one heck of a rain storm--streets flooded all over Lake Worth with winds whipping around.  Parts of South Golfview under water--the same with S. Lakeside. On my way back from Boynton Beach, a car had flipped over on Congress Avenue near the hospital. It was on its side on the opposite side of the road. Driving past the college, there was a full rainbow.

It's better than being in New York where it is so cold and so bad that a plane actually skidded off the runway this morning.

This was the forecast today for our area by Wundergound: Rain likely today with a few thunderstorms. High 78F. Winds S at 10 to 20 mph. Chance of rain 70%. Rainfall around a quarter of an inch, according to Wunderground that totally missed the amount...more like 5 inches, who knows? The Palm Beach Post predicted a 30% chance of rain.

Storm in Lake Worth

Comment Up
In front of Kilwins at the Lake Worth beach & casino watching the storm

The thunder was deafening and one bolt of lightning hit close on the sidewalk. The bolts were thick and menacing. Streets are flooded. Power is out in many areas of the city. Even the Lake Worth web site is down.
