I don't know what the heck is going on with this global warming. It seems
that some idjit over at the weather department has decided to turn it
up a notch, and that's just not right.
When I was a kid,
winter was supposed to be cold. We'd shiver and shake, and mother would
put hot rocks under our blankets to keep us warm. Our windows would frost
over, and we knew the old pond would be frozen enough to skate on. That's
the way it was, and that's the way it should have stayed.
But look around now.
People have got it too comfy, and I'm sure Mother Nature is none too happy
about it. The pond doesn't freeze over anymore, and the kids go to hockey
rinks to skate, because someone has turned up the heat. I think these
young folk must be sissies!
Some Einstein must
be feeling pretty proud of himself right now, sipping his marguerita,
and lounging back in his Bermuda shorts. Did he think that he solved the
world's problems by adjusting the temperature?
Well, I'm not happy
about this at all. Not one bit. Who's paying for this luxury of warmth
that covers the globe? Are my taxes paying for this? What is this braniac
going to do next? Spin up the Earth so we'll all feel lighter?
Suck it up you weather-tampering idjits! Put the thermostat back where
it was, and if you're too cold, put on a damned sweater.
