Sun on Fire, Unleashes 3 More Major Flares

Bush to blame. Women, Children, Minorities, and Puppies to suffer the most.

Really, what's the sun's freakin' problem? What'd we do to piss it off like this?

Commrade Dean lashes out at Bush for no clear Sunspot policy! He proposes pulling out of the Universe and bringing in the United Galaxy. Wes Clark nods in agreement.

Pray for GW and the Truth

Earth has 8 minutes to continue to sustain life.

How does that affect the NFL schedule and the Democratic Presidential debates?

It's 78 degrees right now in Cincinnati.

It's 38 degrees in Pocatello. Occasional snow showers today. Tomorrow night we are expecting to drop to 5 degrees. Nothing like single digits to get your attention. We'll be snuggled in front of the wood burning stove with a DVD or satellite movie. No grass to mow either :-)

The aurora was pretty good last week. The whole northern sky was fluorescent green.

Because of the Aurora, The Rock was cut off from the continent.

"55 degrees currently in Sacramento."

Beautiful area of the country. We have some field trials just north of Modesto. 55 is ok.

THAT would be worth a few degrees of temp. When the aurora goes green, it's like curtains of light. Beautiful.

....and Kerry casually mentions that he's a Viet Nam vet.

The only Northern Lights we see here in N. TX is from burning gas wells on OK.

But it makes a dandy excuse for not taking out the trash.

Yeah, and Sen Dashole just held a press conference where he said that he was, "...deeply, deeply troubled," and demanded a Special Presecutor to determine President Bush's responsibility for the sun spots.

"3 More Major Flares..."

It would appear that the sun needs a good dose of Preparation H....

I wouldn't count on any auroras; one of them MIGHT have sorta been pointed towards earth but the others apparently weren't.

ever gets into the modelling of the global warming proponents?

It gets into scientific investigations, but not into models of political creatures. Would increased solar activity disrupt their thought processes?
