life's questions...

Gurl Asks*: "How come a humidifier is $20, but a de-humidifier costs $140?"

The last time I've seen the ground this saturated with water was when I was a park ranger in Illinois, right before the flood of 1993.

I think we're gonna get more flooding if it continues to rain like this. Luckily we're close to the Bay, so there's not much river to flood. But it would be cool to be able to feed carp in my front yard.

*This is a rhetorical question for humorous purposes only, to point out the irony of life a la George Carlin. An actual answer to this question is neither required nor desired. If you attempt to answer this question, a death-pulse of nonharmonic negative electromagnetic frequency will be sent via this blog to your keyboard, instantly slaying you.

Doesn't your duct tape and plastic tarps protect you from the Flood of '06?

The Bush Administration last week said that there should be no additional mandatory decreases in greenhouse gases by US companies (the Supreme Court could nix this). What's the opposite of green? Red?

It was also reported last week that the Earth is the hottest it's been in 2,000 years.

More water vapor is in the atmosphere than ever before because of melting glaciers and polar ice.

Something tells me the irony of a DC underwater would be completely lost on Bush.

Maybe Bush would notice if Texas was submerged... Midland/Odessa specifically.

If you can show me such a device that causes such a bolt, I'll give you anything on earth.

I hope it dries up

Perhaps if you gagged Bush, a large source of greenhouse gasses would be prevented from entering the atmosphere.....?

I have found that the things I need or want always seem to cost more than those I don't.
