but it’s your mother’s house, Jason, you abide by her rules

So much for encouraging creative thinking

It’s just my ways don’t always work …

If this is Southern California or Arizona, that might not be a bad plan.

Andy you have to remember with Jason: Always be specific otherwise your inviting in zany schemes.

“Seems it never rains in southern California” (Albert Hammond)

But YOUR way disturbs OTHER people besides your own household.

Latest I’ve seen is a dehumidifier so powerful it can squeeze water out of arid environments. More for drinking water though.

Dry ice or silver nitrate,

Jason, you get an A for creative thinking, but and F for following directions.

First, you have to have clouds

This assumes there are clouds to shoot into

For me I gained a little knowledge from a local weatherman, he has a rain barrel he fills with rain water, then uses that rain water for his garden, really helps. For me I have buckets set out I fill up empty milk jugs, so when we have rain fill the milk jugs from the bucket’s and then I wait a couple of days before I water my trees, I have several, I want shade.

(Ahem) I don’t think table salt is how you do that.

Just water the lawn already!

Stop him, Andy, before he builds a cannon to kill a mosquito! (Some of this week’s episodes here, and in ‘Calvin and Hobbes’, seem to indicate summer vacation may go too long.)
