Theodore's World

A while back, my area had a devastatingly cold August. The mother of one of my son's little friends looked me straight in the eye and said, "It's the global warming that's doing this."

I kid you not.

I was speechless, of course. It just goes to show you the mentality we're dealing with.

Hot is an asphalt runway at 115 degrees in one of the rectum of the world bases working around a jet with the engines running..sweat running down the seat of the pants and dehydrated to the point of not being hot any more..and some asshole shoots at you while you are doing all this..yep, that is what it means to be hot..especially when you can't shoot back

I heard on one of the various stations here, that this is the hottest summer on record. Ok, how long have we been keeping records.

From what I can find out we have been keeping records since about 1880, that is a mere 127 years. If the earth is over 6000 years old, and that depends on what you believe, but for the sake of argument we will say a mere 6000 years, then we have been keeping records for a mere 2 % of the time of the earth has existed.

Now when did accuracy really become important and when did thermometers really get to be accurate,probably in the last 40 years. that narrows the percentage down a lot less than 2 %.

If you go by left wing scientists, who say the earth is over 200 million years old, then we have collected NO data at all. Yet we are to accept with blind faith that these people know what they are talking. They can't really tell you with a whole lot of accuracy what the weather will be a mere 7 days from now, but they expect us to believe they can predict the climate in 10-20 years, why are people so gullible ?

So the Government is depending on, half-baked computer generated models, which when taken out of their perfect scenario's don't work at all, and recorded data for the past 40 years,(when in the real scheme of things means nothing) and this is to determine our future ?

Why don't people think ? Just looking at how long we have been keeping records ought send a red flag up for somebody.

Hottest Summer on record, or the hottest summer in 127, (+ or - 87 years) and that they can't prove either.

The early presidential primaries are the cause of the heat wave! Heh, heh.

Here in North Texas we just broke a 2 year drought, big time. It has rained for almost 2 months like an Asian monsoon season. We have flooding and some of our lakes are over 20 feet above normal. I wish we could share this water with those who need it, but this is the nature of Nature. Somebody this winter will set a record for cold weather. Normal weather is only an average, between extremes.

In Kansas City, on July 3, 2007, the news reported that so far this year, they've hit the 90 degree mark once. By this time last year, 2006, the 90 degree mark was hit 23 times. Hottest summer on record...Bovine Scatology.

I was stationed in Great Falls, Montana and temperatures hitting 100 were not uncommon.

Here's a post I did on the 1/2 Degree Boogyman.

Trish, haha it is cute, but at the same time it shows how they hear something enough and just repeat it and don't know what it is if true or not.

One of my girlfriends was tucking her son into bed and when she kissed him goodnight he looked up at her and said....." Thank you Payne Webber". LOL This was years ago when they had that Payne Webber ad running on TV.

GUYK, good to see you.
Whew yes that is hot, that probably should have made them invent a new word for hot. And ot be shot at too on top of everything else.

Mark, hahaha good one!!! That is great Mark, the whole breakdown.

Tom....."The early presidential primaries are the cause of the heat wave!"......LOL

Good one!

That is really something about all the rain there.

Bob thank you for the link. Good posts you did over there. Thank you!

I like the name of the blog too.

Hot was the Mojave near Camp Irwin, California at the edge of Death Valley in July and August. There's something about Tankers and hot weather that just don't seem agreeable, paint them OD on the outside and white on the inside, your skin still sizzles when you touch either surface, add the engines and the ordinance and it does get miserable, let's not forget the sand and dust either, nor the critters that only come out at night to cohabitate with you. Sleeping on the ground or if you're lucky the tank fender, in a dust storm where there is only a breathing hole visible afterward in your personal sand dune. Makes a fellah hate his own mother for giving him birth. God I feel for our people in the MiddleEast dungheaps where they get shot at too. Then like Darth says, there is Washington State, where in can be -25 in winter and +110 in summer, I've enjoyed both seasons in the field, I'll take the heat over the cold.

But wait, wasn't Death Valley hot before Algore and Global Warming?

Darth, hahahaha well see here is the thing. hahahhahahaha

Yes they said no problem in Las Vegas it is a dry heat. Well guess what, after a very short time I started to say..." dry heat this!!! I hated it. LOL

Jack I can feel the heat reading what you said. whew I can't take the heat. I am a snow bunny through and through.

If I was a soldier in this war in that heat, just give me a gun and point me in the direction of the enemy and I would take every last one of the terrorists out! heh heh

Ouch, WT.

"They can even tell you that the testes heat inside a car in Las Vegas in the summer can get up 10 160 degrees....:

I am NEVER going to Las Vegas.

Rhod we had moved there from Calif. when Nick retired because of the cost of living in Los Angeles. And every summer in Vegas, they would report on the news about the temp inside cars with windows shut and no air on.

Every summer there would be several deaths of babies left in cars while a mom or dad ran in a store to run an errand, and the baby died. I don't think I ever have been as angry as I was when we would hear news like that.

They told us how it would be, the baby literally cooked from the inside out. OH my God just to type this makes me ill, but you know what Rhod. Every one of the parents that did this was a Mormon and they got off. The made excuses for them that they didn't realize what would happen etc. But the truth is that Nevada is a heavy Mormon state apparently and the Judge etc. would let them go because of the Mormmon connection.

The police dept. would run tests every summer so they had proof and kept them recent of what temps would be inside a car like that to let people know how dangerous it was to leave anyone inside a car in the summer there.
