1 | "I am the powerful, world dominating, Weather. I forecast a mighty storm of blues heading inland. Across the ocean, the lakes, and pond. Come help, I would. Who am I kidding? I don't wanna rain on your parade. British weather is balmy. Isn't always raining so unpredictable? I haven't always been this powerful, you know. People were foggy about my identity when I started. Nowadays, everyone talk about the Weather." |
