We finally reached the seventies yesterday in Long Island, NY.

Today is Day 22 of spring, at least officially, and of course that means more snow in Minnesota.

Conversation between the teen-age cashier and bagboy at the grocery checkout today…

(BB) – I know this stinks…

(Me) – Gotta love that global warming eh?

My prediction is that on August 20, 4,500,002,008 A.D.

Heck, my computer model is off by three days.

Name change. It’s climate change. Got that?

So, they’re saying that the climate keeps changing… and this is some kind of emergency… and we need to revamp our entire economy and ride electric buses and live in tents or whatever.

You know, I liked Reagan a lot, but I’m thinking maybe he shouldn’t have closed all those public mental institutions in California.

‘Cause it’s like a major cultural movement now, this dissociative schizophrenia thing.

It’s cold here in Texas too (cool by Minnesota standards). Sigh, how I long for those 100+ degree days…

Here Ed, I just took that picture, April 11 1:45 PM Isanti County.

Isanti is the county north of Anoka.. ;)

From Yahoo maps I’m about 1 hour drive north of Minneapolis.

I’m still waiting for this supposed Climate Change to get here in Colorado Springs, it’s been a long winter.

Well, the snow let up… at least for now in NW CoSpgs. May be rain/snow off & on today. Looks like Sunday will be better, Tuesday is when it really will warm up here.

Assuming the weather report for Colorado is correct… hmm, sorry; I shouldn’t be dumb enough to make that assumption. :)

But for free speech that boldly speaks truth we are all slaves to anyone that asserts that we are guilty for living and breathing. If you give up quietly so as not to offend these slave catchers (The high priests of the government rules and protection racquet)there may not be anymore volunteers to come and save you at their risk. Remember we threw out Faith in God that inspired the American self sacrifice ethic of past years.

I am sick of having to wear my winter coat, scrape my car, wear my Sorels to walk the dog, drive in this crap – oh and the wind flung my glass storm door open and shattered it up against the handrails of my front steps. Global Warming I wish. Everyone here in MN is depressed – including my dog – because we haven’t seen the sun in so long and we’ve just stopped believing in Spring. I never thought I would be homesick for DC, (my hometown). But I am.

The existing climate models have all been discredited insofar as none of them can give an accurate “prediction” even after the fact. That is the point of the whole thing, bad models combined with the fact that global atmospheric temperatures, as measured by satellite instruments, have been constant or falling for ten years now, the data showing no rise in sea temperatures warn us that a lot more study is needed before we start making human sacrifices to Gaia.

As for the CO2 thing, the long term geological data seem to show that CO2 levels are lagging indicators which should exclude their use as short term predictors which the scare mongers would have us believe.

My prediction is that on August 20, 4,500,002,008 A.D. the small red star once known as Nova Sol will start its final collapse into white dwarf status. This will be the final cooling cycle in what was a long history of heating and cooling of that star not fully understood by the faithful of the ancient cult lead by one called Rev. Al Gore (Goracle). The holy one with all his accumulated carbon trading wealth will have been long forgotten as entropy moves on.

No snow here but climate change is going to be a frightening 8 degrees below average today here in Rochester, NY.

Here’s a toast to Gore frittering away that $300M before all this climate change put the kabosh on this AGP shinola.

BTW, England had climate change snow a couple of days ago, the latest they’ve had it since 1989.

Just went to lunch and saw the greatest personalized license plate on a GMC Yukon, it said “GBL WMR”. Loved it!

I grew up in Wyoming. Where we used to say there was two seasons. There was winter, and the forth of July. You couldn’t really guarantee that it wouldn’t snow on the Forth of July, but it was reasonably rare.

Global warming causes global cooling, you see.

Here in the Socialist People's City of Madison, Wisconsin, we keep waiting for the Governor to wield his mighty 'Veto Pen of New Law Creation®' to outlaw Spring and Summer. That way, the University of Wisconsin 'Moon Bats' can play 'football' and hockey all year 'round. Of course, the school is not Army (not even they could stomach all the socialism UWofM ~~indoctrinates~~ teaches its students) and they ~~can't~~ won't play Navy so everything is meaningless.

All Karl Rove’s fault:

CONCORD, NH — The heavy snowfall in Concord, New Hampshire, this winter is four inches short of the record. Or maybe it’s two inches.

It turns out the woman who makes the official measurements for the National Weather Service in her back yard was in Florida for a week when 13 inches fell in mid-January. And so was her backup, who is her roommate.
