The water is also warm and swimming and snorkeling is just great. I heard they might be getting SNOW in San Francisco today. Brrrr. It's 83 degrees outside today with a nice 10-12mph south wind. I think I heard a report of snow in Carmel! That's amazing. So much for this global warming nonsense. Brrr is right. But the brainwashed liberal drones who believe the human-caused global warming lie will tell you that one of the things global warming does is to cause cold and snowy winters. They will also tell you that global warming can cause warm, dry winters. They will tell you anything that strikes their moronic fancy and they will wholeheartedly believe every contradictory bit of it. Liberals are simply unable to think analytically. Actually, they don't really think at all; they just parrot the party-line propaganda. If there's one thing I appreciate is a consistent explanation, but as you point out, it doesn't seem to happen from that side of the debate. I think there is climate change happening, but that's always been the case. I read somewhere sun spots are on the rise (more than usual in the cycles). What about that??? Yours is the reasonable view. Saying "climate change" is redundant as that's what climate does - it changes. It goes through natural and normal cycles. There have been numerous warm periods and numerous ice ages throughout history and well before mankind arrived on the planet. We happen to be in an interglacial period right now and it's likely to be relatively short-lived if past history is any kind of predictor of future performance. It would be lucicrous to ignore Sol's energy output as the primary factor affecting the various planets' temperatures. Even Venus with it's runaway greenhouse effect will be slightly hotter during a cycle of greater solar energy output. Not only are the polar ice caps melting somewhat on Earth but the Martian polar ice and dry ice caps are also melting somewhat. Is there man-made global warming on Mars. Yah right! No interest in San Fran... sorry. It's fun to visit for a few days, after that it's just to weird. Nothing but a modern day Sodom and Gommorah. I wouldn't mind seeing a giant earthquake that sinks the self-satisfied sodomite population to the bottom of the ocean. Well, perhaps that's being a bit too harsh. How about 95% of the self-satisfied sodomites? I don't wish anyone dead. It's a pretty wild place, and it just gets old after a while. I really don't want to have that sort of behavior in my face over and over. I'm sure there are normal people who live there... how they can stand it though is beyond me. God apparently wants them dead as He did destroy Soddom and Gomorrah for much the same thing that's going on in San Francisco and Key West and New Orleans today. But, you're right, it's up to God to decide who lives and who dies and we humans shouldn't wish death on anybody - even disgusting creeps, so I take it back. snip I hope you weren't a dumb as Bill Clinton who didn't inhale. LOL! Yah, right! It just didn't do anything for me. Ok. I don't like Clinton.. never did, but he was really handsome when he was younger... lol Freaking hillbilly, IMHO. We had to do random drug test where I worked, too. And it was a zero-tolerance workplace. One positive result and you were history. Yet, some people got tested and got fired - marijuana mostly, one idiot for cocaine. So stupid to have warped priorities that put smoking dope above a well-paying job with excellent benefits. Even if you were driving along in a company car minding your own business and some fool ran into you you were tested for drugs. Any accident actually, if you hurt yourself like spraining an ankle, cutting yourself badly or anything like that which needed medical attention you were required to **** in a bottle for them. If it was positive you were fired and you got no workers comp either. I think if your job is on the line (certainly these days!), why would you risk it? Because one is dumb as a box of rocks? LOL! We have basically the same policy... all injuries have to be reported, you have to see someone, and you have to take a drug test. I got something in my eye a couple of years ago... it was sort of stupid to have to take a drug test, but those were the rules. We must be twins. I also got something poked in my eye - a sharp thorn from a tree branch when I was working pinpointing a small water main leak in the brush alongside of the roadway. It bloodied the white part of my eye so I had to go see an eye doc. Automatic drug test. But, I didn't do drugs so, of course it came back negative. I always worried about a blotched test where some Rube in the lab did something wrong or mixed up the specimens or something so it came back positive. But, they claimed to do double-blind testing to rule out that sort of mistake. I don't think you should get any workers comp if you're stoned and you get hurt. Agreed but with the caveat of responsibility. If you get accidently hurt because of somebody else's negligence it's not really fair to punish you even if you were stoned. Seems to me it would only be fair if your being stoned contributed to or caused the accident. Wilbur Hubbard |
