A Matter of Perspective
Two old farmers are having a drop of the nourishing nectar* in the pub when the tele starts up with a story about the hurricanes and tornadoes in Florida.
After watching in silence while pictures of devastation flash before them, one turns to the other as the story ends and says: "At least they are getting plenty of rain..."
[Ed: On a more serious note, our prayers are with the people of the Caribbean and South East US as they face yet another violent storm.]
