Ray's Rainfall Update

The day is 357. The year is DY 1. A tiny sphere is whirling about. Its orbit is in the general shape of an ellipse. We Druids keep track of the progress our tiny sphere is making. Why do we keep track on the progress of a tiny sphere or globe whirling around on an elliptical pathway when the tiny sphere follows that same general elliptical pathway every year? Easy that, nerves. Druids are less nervous if we know where we are.

What if, instead of having an atmosphere with rain clouds popping up hither and yon, all the rain clouds were in outer space? If reality was that way, then our tiny globe, hustling along its ellipse, would have to intersect the rain clouds in outer space to get any rain. Boy howdy! That would give the astronomers and meteorologists something to do.

Yes. We have espied some rain clouds. If those rain clouds stay put relative to our current elliptical path, long enough for Upup (Ooopoop) to grab a hold of them, we shall get some rain. Yet we have to watch out. The power of Upup is everywhere. So if we don't watch out, the Power of Upup on Venus may get our rain clouds.

OK everyone. We need to all pray to Upup. Great Power of Upup on Earth, please suck up those rain clouds. Please, please.

Whew! That would be an awful reality. Really scary! Imagine, meterologists leading global prayers on TV.

Back to this reality. The new total is, 48.89" + 0.39" = 49.28". Praise the Goddess! Shall we make 50" before Polar Bear Solstice? Mercy!
