  • Save the Polar Bears, Be Creative with Trash

    October 15, 2009

    •    I just read that the Arctic will have ice-free summers within 2 decades, and among other things it will mean the end of the polar bears, and probably the penguins as well. They are great swimmers – penguins better than bears – but they all need ice and islands in order to venture out to deep sea for fishing. Without these ice covers they’d drown. it’s a horrible thought that these ...
  • About that Global Warming Thing

    October 1, 2009

    •      I've been asked the question a million times. Do you believe there is any such thing as Global Warming?     Knowing the split beliefs or views on the subject, my response is usually something like, "Don't ask the question, if you aren't prepared to hear the answer."     But, the person questioning me, usually has to push just enough to get me going (once it was a ...

  • Come On, Gore. They're Leaving You In The Dust!

    August 13, 2009

    • The left has renewed an old strategy: Global warming is a national security threat. Apparently, they felt the fear was wearing off, so they needed to add some new scare tactics into the World is Going to End campaign. Oh, and according to Secretary-General of the UN, Ban Ki-moon Incheon, "Climate change, as all previous speakers have already stated, is the fundamental threat to ...
  • For Love or Money?

    June 26, 2009

    • It poured with rain all night long and the drops made pitter patter sounds on the skylight and I blamed them on the fact that I did not sleep so well. I got out of bed at five thirty am and headed downstairs to brew some coffee and let the dogs run free. I could see the Cuckoo Man out on the road. I have never seen him so late into the month of June before this year. Usually,come mid June he ...

    June 26, 2009

    • Wait, did something happen to Michael Jackson?Of course, I'm kidding. I know he's going on tour. What? Something ELSE happened? Really?? I hadn't heard.Well, this makes for a great distraction from Pelosi rushing through a vote on the 1200 page cap and tax program that Congress had a whole 24 hours to read and comment on. I mean, who's going to give a crap that their electricity bills are going ...

  • The Obama-nation Tour: First Stop, Las Vegas!

    May 27, 2009

    • So Barack Obama was in Vegas this week. I will not take credit for the following, but thought it was so funny I had to repeat it...of course, I cannot remember to who the credit is owed, but that's besides the point. Apparently, Obama's advance team was thrilled he stayed at Caesar's because they've gotten really tired of having to erect pillars for him.Get it?? See..cause at the Democratic ...
