Both work for me. The second seems more intense.

I am a little bit confused about the grammar used in the following sentence.
It was a windy night and raining hard, so he can't go out.
I think in this sentence "it" is used as an introductory subject for "Windy night".
Now I want to know whether the same "It" can be used for the "rain" also or we should use the seperate one and rewrite the sentence as
It was a windy night and it was raining hard, so he can't go out.
Please post your suggestions friends.
Thanks a lot in advance.

Could I implore you to explain it here? Thanks in advance

This is the "normal" order of items in an English clause. The "VO" portion of a clause predicates something about the subject. When ales or wines are "VOP," that's good enough for me. 
Thank for the education. "VOP"?

I spend most of my working hours at a keyboard and monitor. To relieve my eyes I have a supply of liquid for bubble blowing and wand. Periodically I sit/stand back and blow bubbles for the purpose of focusing on the floating orbs moving about over me. I go from one orb to another thereby exercising my eyes. I can feel the eyes working to focus on the floating objects.

I understand 'fair to middlin' was used to denote the quality of picked cotton being sold.

How can I find all the threads posted by me?
Thanks
Go to "Forum Search" in the task bar just below the header toward the top of this page and click it. That will take you a blank search window where you should key in your Login ID, then click search. That should do the trick.

For my 50th I completely overhauled my signature. I compounded the first letters of my name into one figure adding the balance of my last name to complete the signature. I really like using my signature; the compounded figure I use as my initials. I didn't do anything for my 60th; I am giving my 70th some thought.

Now THAT was a LONG way to go for the punch line. Thanks for the tour.

I suggest practicing bring spirituality into the "real" world. Practice looking for and seeing the "true" nature of all that we see with our senses, which is actually the vaneer of the "world." We are much like "fish that are not aware of water" in that we make spirituality something to be achieved when it is greater than our life in the physical. It takes practice to overcome our training of how the "world is" and begin seeing it in all its glory.
