Looking out my office window and it is so cool to be rain in So Cal.... There was a few sprinkles past few days and the air and sky was so clean and clear. Now it's coming down pretty nicely and I hope it goes for a while.

How many people like the rain?

I'm like a little kid in the rain. I get hyped up and start bouncing off the walls because it's exciting because it's rare.

I love the rain. But it always makes me thirsty. :D I don't know why. It's great weather for soup and stuff. Mmmmmm soup. :drool:

if i lived someplace where it rained a LOT, i'd hate it, cuz i generally don't like being sopping wet.

even when it does rain here in cali, i only like it when it's a lot of rain, real hard. i don't like the little gimpy sprinkles.

I also like to stand out in the rain and get soaked (when it's pouring) and then go inside and take a warm shower. Rain is awesome at home, and it sucks at work or when you're at school, but at home rain is great.

I love watching the rain, and having it beat on the roof while I sleep.


The Ice Man's mule is parked
Outside the bar
Where a man with missing fingers
Plays a strange guitar
And the German dwarf
Dances with the butcher's son
And a little rain never hurt no one
And a little rain never hurt no one

They're dancing on the roof
And the ceiling's coming down
I sleep with my shovel and my leather gloves
A little trouble makes it worth the going
And a little rain never hurt no one

The world is round
And so I'll go around
You must risk something that matters
My hands are strong
I'll take any man here
If it's worth the going
It's worth the ride

She was 15 years old
And never seen the ocean
She climbed into a van
With a vagabond
And the last thing she said
Was, "I love you mom."

And a little rain
Never hurt no one
And a little rain
Never hurt no one

I'm only happy when it rains
I'm only happy when it's complicated

Rain

She said, time to crush this feeling
Writing very long letters as soon as it rains
Ooh the rain

To dance the night away
He watches topless pin-up faces
A million different jackpots
With a thosand different gazes
Ooh the rain

But it's time to crush this feeling
As soon as it rains
Ooh the rain

But it's time to crush this feeling
As soon as it rains
Ooh the rain

I voted for the depression choice, but its something I relish. I get all down and grey when it rains, but I think its a natural part of the seasons to emotionally bundle up and settle in for the winter. This is my first winter back in Fresno for a while, there's nothing like it. Cold (for Cali) Lots of rain, lots of fog. When I was a kid I used to park somewhere in the fog or rain with some friend and drink bluberry shnapps and smoke some bud and listen to cool music. Damn see how you guys got me all nostalgic...

I enjoy the rain at night when falling asleep. However, I just got back from Hawaii, and rain and cold sucks!

Tell me can you weather the storm?
'Cause I need somebody who will stand by me
Through the good times and bad times
She will always, always be right there

Sunny days, everybody loves them
Tell me, can you stand the rain?
Storms will come, this we know for sure
Can you stand the rain?

Rain's depressing. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad we have it... it helps plants grow and all that good stuff, but it's kind of an inconvenience nonetheless.

I love rainy days. It gives me another excuse to stay inside to play Madden all day.

It's just those rainy days
Spent a lifetime tryin to wash away
Til the sun comes out and shines again
Smile for me, smile for me
[Ja Rule]
On all those rainy days
Spend ya lifetime tryin to wash away
Until the sun shines and I see your face
Smile at me, smile at me

Someone told me long ago
There's a calm before the storm,
I know
Its been comin' for some time.
When its over, so they say
It'll rain a sunny day.
I know
Shinin' down like water.

Chorus
I want to know,
Have you ever seen the rain?
I want to know,
Have you ever seen the rain?
Comin' down on a sunny day? :D

Yesterday, and days before,
Sun is cold and rain is hard.
I know
Been that way for all my time.
'Til forever, on it goes.
Through the circle, fast and slow,
I know
It can't stop, I wonder.

I love the rain, but for some people it can get to be too much..
----------------------------------------------------------------

Long as I remember,the rain been coming down.
Clouds of mistry porin,confusion on the ground.
Good men through the ages,
trying to find the sun,

and I wonder, still I wonder,
who'll stop the rain.

I went down Virginia,
seeking shelter from the storm.
Caught up in the fable,
I watched the tower grow.
Five year plans and new deals,
wraped in golden chains,

and I wonder, still I wonder,
who'll stop the rain.

Heard the singers playing,
how we cheered for more.
The crowd has rushed together,
trying to keep warm.
Still the rain kept pouring,
Falling on my ears,

and I wonder, still I wonder,
who'll stop the rain.

i like it when i didn't wash my car for like 3 months..
some rain to wash it off naturally is always good :P

just don't like it when its pouring cats and dogs... sprinkles fine

but i just hate the traffic that goes with it.. LA people can't drive with the rain... its nearly impossible to drive home during rush hours on a rainy day
