<< MAYBE HE'LL SUE ~ MAIN ~ CHARACTER QUESTIONED >>

KOLD IN KANSAS

The Wichita Eagle suggests a version of the Gore Effect:

Do you suppose Al Gore upset Mother Nature by complaining about global warming, so she’s showing him what she can really do when she gets angry?

It’s as good a theory as any. Frozen Kansans are lately given to wondering: “Just How Much Snow Can Kansas Get?”

1. I guess it just goes to prove God has a sense of humor.

   And doesn’t particularly like lefties…

   “Mount Baker Ski Area, near Seattle, set the U.S. record in the 1998-99 season with 1,140 inches. That´s a lot of snow” - the Kansas farmer link

   29 metres? My Oath thats a lot of snow.

2. I saw a blurb in a local paper about a HS ski outing that got cancelled due to ‘excessive snow’.

3. How much snow can Kansas get?  I don’t believe there is any upper limit.  Just think, there are two infinites - the extent of the universe and the gore effect!

4. OT. Adam Gilchrist just got given out lbw to an obvious inside edge.
   No doubt the Indians will be up in arms that the umpire is unfairly favouring them.

5. Al Gore was last seen pedaling his bicycle away from Dorothy’s house, the basket behind the seat filled with the family’s incandescent light bulbs.

7. #4 Kansas cowboys and Indians?

8. For genuine news on “Global Warming” check Sunday Telegraph travel lift out page 3.

   Hint….Gore and Jay Leno quoted as authorities.

   Young Murdoch must be visiting?

9. WAY O/T, But more likely to piss off a lefty than putting a whale in a prius and setting fire to it in a national park:

   Sir John Winston Howard.  I’ll be smiling all day now.

10. Huckabee voters get smacked with tornadoes.
    Gore followers get smacked with blizzards.
    This following false prophets is a mug’s game…

11. #9 It’s excellent news.

    I’m laughing so hard I just might pee myself.

13. Meanwhile: Nigel Taylor, curator of Kew Gardens:
    “This suggests the changes in our climate are more far reaching than previously seen.”

14. In Norway they can’t get their arms down. Skiing conditions are perfect. It hasn’t snowed this much in 20 years.

15. 40 mph winds and -20 F. wind chills here, not to mention the snow. And more snow today. And tomorrow . . .

16. Forecast for Perth tomorrow: Fine 36C (97F for the Seppo’s).

    Forecast where I’m going: Cloudy 14C (57F).  Hey that actually sounds warm, 57F.

    Forecast for where I’d like to be (Exmouth): Fine, partly cloudy 39C (102F)

    Fourteen?  Ima freeze my arse off…

17. On the 11th on January a few friends of mine up in Roebourne had a nice warm day of 48.8C.  Thats 120F for the Seppo’s.

    And I think I’d rather be there than where rightwingprof is.

18. #15, rightwingprof:

    Negative numbers are imaginary, so that isn’t really happening.

19. I wish we’d get a little global warming here in Iowa. We had thirteen inches of snow on Tuesday evening, and the walkways are still sheets of ice almost a week later—not to mention the chilling wind that will flay your skin from your bones if you step outside. Seriously, if it’ll make this place warmer, I’ll go buy a whole pharmacy’s worth of aerosol cans and set them on fire in the college quad.
