Our fruits and vegetables would be so much cheaper if we grew them where the water was.

We get like 11″ of rain a year. I sometimes wonder how much money we save being in a dry place in terms of the house and cars and whatever not dealing with the damp/wet.

Me debunk an American myth?\
And take my life in my hands?\
Where the great plains begin\
At the hundredth meridian\
At the hundredth meridian\
Where the great plains begin
Driving down a corduroy road\
Weeds standing shoulder high\
Ferris wheel is rusting\
Off in the distance
At the hundredth meridian\
At the hundredth meridian\
At the hundredth meridian\
Where the great plains begin
Left alone to get gigantic\
Hard, huge and haunted\
A generation so much dumber than its parents\
Came crashing through the window
A raven strains along the line of the road\
Carrying muddy old skull\
The wires whistle their approval\
Off down the distance\
At the hundredth meridian (hundredth meridian)\
At the hundredth meridian (you’re going to miss me)\
At the hundredth meridian (trust me)\
Where the great plains begin (at the hundredth meridian)\
At the hundredth meridian (at the hundredth meridian)\
At the hundredth meridian (you’re going to miss me)\
At the hundredth meridian (trust me)\
Where the great plains begin
I remember, I remember Buffalo\
And I remember Hengelo\
It would seem to me\
I remember every single fucking thing I know
If I die of vanity, promise me, promise me\
If they bury me some place I don’t want to be\
You’ll dig me up and transport me, unceremoniously\
Away from the swollen city breeze, garbage bag trees\
Whispers of disease and the acts of enormity\
And lower me slowly and sadly and properly\
Get Ry Cooder to sing my eulogy

I moved from California to Tennessee in the early 90’s. I saw more rain in a year than I’d seen in 15 years. It was unreal.

At the hundredth meridian
Where the Great Plains begin
IF anyone’s interested, here’s the same map but with current climatology (30 year rolling average), not 1961-1990.

The wet deep southeast vs the dry deep southwest.
