You are raring to write today! That's good writing and on a good day I'd give it a shot. I'm too whiny today, however, and it is a dark and stormy night here. Rain has retired for the day. Rocketing wind gusts powering flocks of leaves make dusk eerie like Halloween should be.

I'd like to trace its origins >>>

It comes from the "Leftward Land of Silliness"!

It was a dark stormy night as Al Gore stomped in out of the cold.
"This was supposed to be a stinking desert by now," he screamed.
"If we don't get some Global Warming soon, people will laugh at me as much as when I attempted to steal the Elections in 2000."

This last year, 2019, had been the hardest of all, for him to bear. After 18 years of predicting disaster from Global Warming, the Earths climate had stayed relatively consistent. 2006 had been spectacularly bad. Record Hurricane predictions had not materialized. To make matters worse, no full grown storms had even approached the North American Continent.

Then came the primary fiasco's of the 2008 elections. He had recovered from those quite nicely, due to a cadre of of staunch "Weather Scientists" who took their Liberal Arts degrees very seriously.

His investments had not done well either. He had invested heavily in alternative fuels, just before a vast reserve of oil had been discovered in the offshore territorial waters of Israel. His Liberal TV network had eventually faded, after the Conservative steam roller thwarted Democrat/Socialist hopes in the 2006 elections.

This latest effort, however, was going to prove his theories valid. He had purchased this tract of land just outside of Portland, Washington, knowing it would soon be dessert, and his cactus and yucca growing operations could be brought to full fruition. His secret, "water from cactus and yucca," formula would make the dessert bloom again, if it would just stop raining.

He was feeling very good on one note though. Twenty five years ago he had resisted the advice of then President Clinton to have an affair. He just wasn't that kind of guy, and Dammit that Tipper was a Hottie. One of the good things through all the years. Now even she was starting to give him a hard time. Ralph Nader and Jerry Brown no longer returned his phone calls. What was a man to do?

......Tune in for the next chapter of:

"As the world remains the sameold sameold"

There he was, sitting in the rain, hat pulled down tghtly. He was reviewing the events of the day. Imagine, he a blackman at the Playboy mansion, a guest.

The bunny had engaged him in conversation and actually came on to him. As he was leaving, tucking the raincoat tight, he saw her out of the corner of his eye, She actually winked and slowly mouthed the words...."Call me."

The future was looking up. He could feel the future changing event in his bones
