I promised the gret nephews I'd take them and my niece out to the lake
for some serious tubing today, but one of the boys has a bad dose of
the flue and as I speak it's 58 degrees outside. HUH!? yeah, this is
the year that spring never ended. I dont' think tomorrow afternoon is
tied up so I'll see what I can do if the kid isn't still sick, but
probably wopn't be going then either.


Oh well....


Kind of a disapointment actually. I love spending time with the kids!

That damn global warming is a bitch!

There is none, despite all of the data telling us otherwise, the right
wing politicians are telling all of you that it isn't happening. I'm
glad that Greenland realizes it really is happening, though, the
retreating ice has opened up a lot of areas for mining in their country.


I had a young engineer approach me a few years ago while I was taking
Pro/Engineer training and asked me what I thought of global warming. I
was training on the swing shift, and the second shift guys spent a lot
of time discussing current events. I told the young man that I was
all for it. The young engineer practically went apoplectic. "Well,
what about the children?" he remonstrated. I told him that I thought
the children would enjoy the change as well. Another engineer nearby
laughed upon overhearing the conversation and the young man harumphed
and marched off. There are a few things about the entire conversation
on global warming that have puzzled me for some time. It's my opinion,
and I believe it be based on good information, that the people that
most invest in the fact of global warming likewise have purchased the
fact of evolution. And in my various discussions with these
particular folks, evolution is nothing more than change. There is no
purpose, and there is no empyrean force directing it. It is simply
change, and people should learn to accept that. Likewise, these same
folks generally have adopted the idea that there is no hope of an
afterlife. Death is an inevitability that simply must be accepted,
and to try to find some way to escape it, through the conjure of
superstition or otherwise, is foolish. People should just accept that


This is hard to comprehend?

Death is inevitable, therefore Russian Roulette is just a game that you
can come to terms with.

The fact that the human contribution to natural global warming might
foster an unpredictable tipping point and cause dire global consequences
can be ignored too because, hey, its getting warmer anyway.
