Words to live by. Since I can't take any 911s, tools or trucks beyond this life, gotta stock up and enjoy now while I still have a pulse.

Looks like another atmospheric river is about to hit the Bay Area late Thursday into early Saturday.

But this storm is coming from the south so it's gonna be a lot warmer and all of this snow is gonna melt because of it.

Could prove problematic for all of that snow in the Sierra's and especially places like Mammoth.

Yup, especially Gary Tyrrell of Half Moon Bay.
He's a CFO and brews beer in his spare time called Trombone Guy Ale.
I am not a fan of his label. It shows a Stanfurd King sitting on top of a Cal Bear.

Was there in the stands that day in '82 and rushed the field after the touchdown. Personally, I grew up playing the trumpet.
Biggest comeback that I've ever witnessed in person at a sporting event. Our 13 - 12 comeback over USC in the NCAA Water Polo Championship in Berkeley in December ranks right up there.
Scored 5 straight goals in the final period to win. It was MAGICAL.

GO BEARS!
