Rain dance works

Tuesday, August 5, 2003

Dear Editor,

This is a slow time of year at the park and so when I noticed shade in my hot van, I got out. I saw a large cloud with way too much blue sky around it to hope for much rain.

I yelled at a bunch of kids near the van. I said, "if anyone can do a rain dance, and fill my rain barrels I'll give a free sno kone." A little guy came running and started doing the best rain dance a white kid could come up with. At the end he saw that it had failed to rain but I gave him a snow kone anyway for the entertainment.

He left happy and as GOD as my witness, within 15 minutes it was a gulley washer, real frog strangler. He then came back screaming, IT WORKED IT WORKED!

To think farmers spend millions on irrigation when that kid can make it rain for a sno kone.
