Bush's fault for not signing Kyoto. Or something. :)

MONTREAL — Thousands of protesters took to the streets in cities worldwide Saturday to demand urgent action on global warming ...

Five environmental groups, including Greenpeace and the Climate Crisis Coalition...

in Montreal urging President Bush and Congress to help slow global warming.

"We're worried about climate change, about ways of life in the Canadian Arctic disappearing," said Sarah Binder of Montreal's Urban Ecology Center.

Yeah ... definitely global warming.

"Rockies and Midwest crippled by cold"

Define hyperbole.

"sending volunteers into the streets looking for homeless people to rescue"

If the volunteers just stayed home, and warm there would be less bums on the street come spring.
Just a thought.

It should be making headlines when it's 80 degrees out for days on end in the middle of December, in places like West Yellowstone, Montana.

There is one bright spot to all this. The crime rate goes down with the temperature.

THIS is the time of year that Florida living is very, very attractive...;)

Been keeping busy around here with this weather.
I don't mind it cold but my shifts on my two jobs always are when we get this sort of stuff:

Also- this weather comes every year, why are folks still talking about it???

Ho-hum for east central Minnesota.

7 degree temp for a high here yesterday.

Life went on. Work went on. School went on.

It's winter for goodness sakes!

12 below right now at my house in the Black Hills of South Dakota. Nothing new. It is winter.

[dalereed]

It even got to So. Cal., I forced myself to wear long pants for the last 2 days, it only got up to 67.

It was -1 when I got home from work today. I thought long and hard (approx. 29 seconds)about the "wood burning restriction" in Denver before I lit the wood burning stove tonight. Currently it's about 69 degrees in the house and we're all feeling warm & toasty!

I'd wager any lib would do the same thing! ;-)

It's frickin' cold here! Not fit for man nor beast. The lousy neighbor of my dad's keeps her poor dog out in weather like this. My brother's neighbor does the same thing. I'd like to chain them to a flim flam dog house and keep them out for a few nights.

I spent Christmas 1998 with my brother in Phoenix, Arizona. Wore a polo shirt and khaki shorts, and the temperature was 68 degrees and sunny on Christmas day.

I'm kind of surprised how these low temps are distributed. It was a nice 15 degree day here in North Dakota. Monday morning was a bit colder at -11 but it wasn't a big deal, I just plugged in my pickup's block heater on Sunday night.
