Stuff about Minneapolis

me!

Hi, I'm Paul Merrill and this is just a hodgepodge of stuff about Minneapolis that you may enjoy. Thanks for stopping by! You can contact me at stuffaboutminneapolis@gmail.com Twitter flickr




You see this guy? That’s Bud Freaking Kraehling, he was the weatherman at WCCO for like 50 years. He was the weatherman, not the “staff meteorologist” with a Doppler 3000 Radar machine and a degree in atmospheric buggery from Cornell. NO, NO, NO, NO, NO. You know what he did? He would look out the window at six in the morning, and then go on live television and tell you to your face that it would rain at three o’clock in the afternoon for fifteen minutes. And you know what would happen? That’s right, it would rain for fifteen minutes at three o’clock that afternoon. All I heard last night, and for most of the past week, was Thunderstorms are A-Comin! Nothing has happened. I’m not some big thunderstorm advocate, but you guys today (I’m talking to you Sven, and that skinny guy at Fox 9) seem to be wrong all the time now. If this continues, I swear to God I will use it in my power with this tumblr to pull Bud Kraehling out of retirement.
You have been warned.
