seven feet

Strange things are afoot in Canada. There is a beach in Richmond, British Columbia where two men found a sneaker. Inside the sneaker, was a foot. Officials are working on finding the owner of said foot. (Don't they use the metric system there? So shouldn't that be a 30.48 centimeter?)

This is the seventh foot they have found on that beach in the last two years. WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON UP THERE?! Who goes to the beach in Canada in October?! Doesn't winter start in September there?!

I don't know if you believe in Global Warming, but if a Canadian couple can still walk on the beach and find feet at the end of October, I'd say the world is warming up too fast.

I'm off to worry about the ice caps.

Enjoy!

it's chilly

How are you? Are you cold? I bet you are. The sun just isn't warming you up like it used to, is it? Don't worry, you're not crazy! There have been fewer sunspots in the last year or so and that means that the sun is putting out less energy. And THAT means that the planet is a little bit cooler.

Which is great because of all that global warming! The sun and the earth are working together to give you a more comfortable environment.

Earth: "Hey Sun! It's getting really hot down here! Could you turn it down a notch?!"

Sun: "Can do, Earthy-poo!"

The sun loves to rhyme. It writes poetry all the time. Would you like to hear some?

"I'm the sun and I have fun,
Until the fun is almost done!"

"Wind blows through the air,
It blows around your hair,
Unless your head is bare,
Then you probably don't care!"

And they're all pretty much like that. The sun wrote a poetry book, but it didn't sell too well. It came out the same time that Twilight was booming, so there was a lot of competition. It's a tough market out there.

I'm off to cool down in the sun.

Enjoy!
