Snow. Feh.

To all you down’easters, sorry ’bout that…

I spent Thanksgiving in Cleveland in the early Eighties, and we woke up to a front door like this. Had to climb out the window to shovel the snow to OPEN. The. FRICKIN’. DOOR. Haven’t been north of the Tennessee line since, a record I am disinclined to break.

Global Warmening causes asteroid encounters?

CNN anchor Deb Feyerick asked Saturday afternoon if an approaching asteroid, which will pass by Earth on February 15, “is an example of, perhaps, global warming?”

Moments earlier, before an ad break, she segued from the Northeast blizzard to a segment with Bill Nye “the science guy,” by pointing to global warming: “Every time we see a storm like this lately, the first question to pop into a lot of people’s minds is whether or not global warming is to blame? I’ll talk to Bill Nye, ‘the science guy,’ about devastating storms and climate change.”
