So yesterday it was 93 degrees here in Texas, on March 1st, a record. I
heard it even got up to 97 in a nearby town. Sometimes I wonder if this
global warming thing is for real. I always thought there was a 1 in 3
chance of it being for real. It can either be global cooling, global
normal, or global warming. I figure scientists selected one of them and
figured that we had better odds of that happening. I remember back in
high school how we were told there was global cooling and another ice
age coming back in the 70s. Then there was that ozone layer thingy.
First they said there was a hole in it and we were all going to die,
then they said it had closed up. Now it seems like it is open again. In
reality it could be anything. I think the big thing is that scientists
are still studying it and don't know anything for sure. However, on both
sides of the political aisle they use whatever information they can get
to support whatever causes they believe in, when the reality is no one
knows for sure. I think I am in favor of a little bit of global cooling
right now, so I am going to go for that. Then when it is 72 degrees
everyday I'll stop being in favor of one of them and go back to global
normal. The solution, as we all know, is to build a global air
conditioner. Who's with me?

"Oh, one more thing about the car. Let it warm up for a minute."
"That's a tough minute. It's like waiting in the shower for the
conditioner to work."
