Gore throwing himself on his own rectal thermometer...yea..that's better. |

Being cold in April here in Houston made me curious, so just for fun (to those with ****head tendencies pay attention to that last), and even though I don't own a copy of PowerPoint, I did a little algorerithm: Top 10 warmest Marches in the last 118 years in Houston: 72.1 1907 69.4 1953 69.2 1908 68.8 1945 68.7 1921 68.6 1938 67.6 1967 67.6 1918 67.5 1911 67.3 2004 (20% were in the last 50 years) Top 10 Coolest Marches: 53.4 1915 56.0 1931 56.1 1969 56.4 2001 56.9 1970 56.9 1947 57.3 1978 57.4 1960 57.4 1941 57.6 1892 (50% were in the last 50 years) Now just to be fair, since August in Houston is generally snynomous with "hell": Top 10 Warmest August's in 118 years: 87.0 1951 86.8 1999 86.8 1902 86.6 1980 86.5 1993 86.2 1987 86.0 1909 85.9 1962 85.8 1927 85.7 1948 (60% were in the last 50 years) Top 10 Coolest 78.8 1894 79.5 1973 79.5 1891 80.1 1992 80.3 1972 80.4 1971 80.5 1893 81.0 1892 81.1 1975 81.1 1967 (60% were in the last 50 years) The BURNING question: Should I go ahead and make my reservations for the Academy Awards next year??

First of all it is global warming and not local warming.
Second, the most visible impact of global warming is a change in weather patterns. Some areas may locally actually get COLDER! |

Global warming? Probably. Caused by humans? Some, but not enough to make a real difference. |

Volume of polar and glacial ice would be more telling.

Gore uses Keynote software to do his dog and pony show when he's on the road. We'll do your presentation LIVE with real polar bears and scantily clad chicks with sandwich boards and we'll show twenty seven eight-by-ten colour glossy photographs with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one explaining what each one is...

E-mail him and ask him... For theme song we could get Shelley Long... I hear she's isn't doing much these days. For presenter, I propose Scarlett Johansson, with her on stage, nobody will give a **** what's being said. Now.. about that agent thing.. I'll have my people call your people, we'll do lunch.. love you man.. you're the best, this is going to knock one out of the park, I feel an Oscar coming on... |
