More Cowbell for Al Gore
Today on Capitol Hill, former V.P. Al Gore testified about global warming.
In an emotional plea, Al Gore said, "The planet has a fever,"
..."and, the only prescription is...more cowbell!"
Well, he really did say that the planet has a fever, but I might have made that last part up. Maybe keeping the beat with a cowbell will do as much for global warming as many proposals. Come to think of it, aren't cows responsible for a lot of the GW emissions into the atmosphere?
To pacify Al Gore, do your part for the Earth's fever...buy a cowbell and strike it every time that he says that we are having a planetary emergency. You'll have fun and make a statement...well, forget the statement part. Just have fun ridiculing Gore.
"I'm tellin ya fellas, you're gonna want that cowbell!"

The fragrance would be a distinctive assessment of the validity of Al's alarmist statements.

DaDvocate, I'd rather give the planet an aspirin than have Al Gore give us all suppositories.

RJY, aka Mark A. York, is back visiting us. It would completely be beyond him to realize that this post was classified under humor, but his comments to it do enhance that classification.
Yorkie, watch the video. Chris Walken says, "I've got a fever, and the only prescription is more cowbell." So, (I hate explaining jokes), we took Al Gore's comment about the planet's fever and played off of Walken's comment. Some of us think it's funny--those who aren't liberal and actually have a sense of humor.
Sorry that your buddy at Real Climate lost the GW debate.

You guys must be insane...

Jack,
When you come to a family gathering, it's usually a good idea to hang out for a while and figure out the relationships, the "rules of the road" and the inside jokes before horning into a conversation - else you blow your masquerade and expose yourself as an gate crasher who will probably be quickly shown the door.
Moreover, it's generally considered poor etiquette to come into someone's house and pee all over their carpet.
Just some advice if there's a next time...
