Tuned in to watch the Rays-Royals game.They should have been playing at the Trop. Looks pretty nasty out there. I remember one Mother's Day back in central NY when Mrs.O and I woke up that morning to 6 inches of fresh snow. Have fun.

Global Warming is out Climate Change is in. This way when it is 38 tonight in Cental Texas they can still blame that on carbon emissions.


Either way it's still a joke.

Haven't you heard?

It's called man made climate change now. That's been the new mantra of the mad libs for several years since the actual weather stopped cooperating with their wack theories.

Ask LTS, he'll tell you. This is some nefarious scheme of the neo-con Zionazi Koch bros in conspiracy with Exxon.

Meanwhile, I drove home thru a fucking blizzard today and it snowed out the Royals game. :brad:

92 degrees here

Sounds like a lot of preperation for you to get through your day.

I slept with the windows open.

it was in the 80's here yesterday and like Scott, I was also out mowing.

I'm sure Mace has some bullshit stories about Iowa blizzards in May but this is my first. In fact, today sets an all time record for lowest high temp ever recorded in May. If that even makes sense. The last record low high set was like 45 in 1944. 41 was the high today, 32 now.

Yeah, the number don't typically creep this high in early May. There's a climate correction headed next week I'm guessing.

One of the main things that I find just absolutely laughable is the rising of the global tidal level horror stories.. All this shit about melting ice caps making the tidal level go up the most it ever has in recorded history.

So I decided to do some research on Wikipedia. And what I found was the worst case scenario put forth by the climate change quacks is exactly how the tidal level has risen in the past 20K years.

What was it like only 16000 years ago that there was actually a land bridge between Great Britain continental Europe? The tidal level was 600 feet below what it is now?

16000 years ago. Not 60 million. Not even 60,000. Not really that long ago when you think of it.

Do the math. Their worst case scenario is exactly how the tidal level has changed.

Okay I mean sea level.

I'm at work right now on my smartphone don't feel like rewriting a whole bunch of stuff.


But my basic point is that scientist claim of sea levels going up the most in recorded history these past 100 or so years is a bunch of bunk.

And, as usual, you'd be wrong. This is my first May snow storm as well.

then make some up, you curmudgeon.

I predict global warming will be back at least by July.

Sucks to be you, bro. It's been gorgeous here the last two weeks. Only gonna get better.

Once again, it's good to be me and not you.

Um..excuse me, but are you guys stroking each other in some sort of reassuring measure? Trying to pretend that the weather isn't becoming decidedly fucked up--and that it's caused by the rampant industrialization of the planet by the mischievious chimp species (that's us!)? Yes, that's a question, gentlemen, and I expect you to consider it, if only in the privacy of your personal meditation.


More "Free Market" loosening of regulations and...aw AAAAARRHHH ...banana...banana ....

the weather has been "decidedly fukked up" since the beginning of time you cum drunk simpleton.

The morons are still having a hard time with the difference between climate and weather.

Par for the course, I guess.

way to once again live up to your sig.

We ended up with 8"-9" of snow that will be gone in a few days. This is the first week of high school baseball practice in Iowa and I'm very happy that I'm no longer coaching and have to deal with this stuff. Now it's just fucking up my golf and fishing schedule.

This is the first week of practice? Damn! I knew it started later in your area but when does the season end? Start of next school year?

Here baseball practice started 1/14. The first round of the playoffs is this weekend here and will last for 6 weeks until the state champs are crowned the first weekend in June.

We play summer baseball in Iowa, Lefty, with the first games being played the Monday prior to Memorial Day and the state tournament usually the last week of July.

Wow, I had no idea. How many games are played in the regular season?

How many rounds of the playoffs are there?

75 and sunny in Rochester, NY. Suck it beyotches.

There's a 40 game limit for the regular season and you typically have to win 4-5 games in the district tournament and 1-2 games in sub-state to qualify for the state tournament (8 teams in each of the 4 classes go to state).

Probably the last time you both woke up to 6 inches of anything right ??? :grin:

Yeah,,the weather really sucks here...

Darwin is likely to take a few swings this weekend in the U & L, and will probably score at least once.

UNUSUALLY WARM WEATHER THIS WEEKEND AS TEMPERATURES PUSH INTO THE
80S THIS WEEKEND MAY CAUSE SOME PEOPLE TO BEGIN TO THINK ABOUT
COOLING OFF IN RIVERS AND STREAMS OF SOUTHWEST WASHINGTON AND
NORTHWEST OREGON.

UNFORTUNATELY...SPRING SNOW MELT IS BEGINNING AS WELL. THIS IS
CAUSING RIVER FLOWS TO INCREASE AND MAKE SWIMMING MORE DIFFICULT.
BUT IT IS ALSO CAUSING WATER TEMPERATURES IN RIVERS DRAINING THE
CASCADES TO FALL WELL INTO THE 40S. THESE TEMPERATURES CAUSE CHANGES IN THE BODY QUITE QUICKLY THAT
MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO SWIM. THESE COLD TEMPERATURES IN COMBINATION
WITH SWIFT CURRENTS WILL MAKE SWIMMING ON RIVERS AND STREAMS IN
SOUTHWEST WASHINGTON AND NORTHWEST OREGON VERY DANGEROUS THIS
WEEKEND.

Nope. Sorry Felix. Algore specifically called out "Global Warming" in An Inconvenient Truth. You people have simply changed the narrative and moved the goal posts. Can't have it both ways. And it's been documented and proven that you and your consensus are full of shit. Disagree? How have the gun threads worked out for you? Let's rage six pages and make you look just as stupid on this topic too, shall we?

How did you know? I actually did find him today, about three levels below the main crusher at a limestone quarry.

I saw his silhouette through the blinding dust and he beckoned to me, to follow him to the eternal light. It was an incredible epiphany.

Remarkably, I was able to snap a picture. If you look closely you can see him near the upper right hand corner:





Here he is again...leading me out of the darkness. See how he started to glow, once I made the decision to follow him?

Climate change as a cause or warning makes me laugh. The climate has been in constant change long before we put greenhouse gasses in to the atmosphere and will continue to change long after we are gone.

San Antonio was once or twice ocean front property.

Jesus, Mikey, not that Jesus. I meant "Jesus". You know... Jesus. Hay-soos. Your gardener. You found him. So who's the guy in the mine?

No he isn't, but that didn't seem to matter to the Nobel folks either. You Believers evolved your argument when damning evidence ('sup East Anglia) no longer conveniently fit your "warming" meme.

"Oh, the earth is getting warmer climate is changing, and it's all our fault."

Nevermind climate once saw this part of the country buried under a mile-thick sheet of ice. Nevermind climate once had this part of the country submerged under a tropical sea. Dear Lord, if only we had been around back then. We could've done something to change it.

Detroit under a mile of ice would be an improvement.
