You may have noticed that it is hot outside. I don’t watch network news but I am guessing that they are talking about global warming again. I am reminded of a joke I heard Dick Cheney tell in a speech. I can’t find it with Google so let me give a poor paraphrase.
Cheney talked about all the symptoms they attribute to global warming and said he had become a believer. In fact he was expecting to see dramatic changes very soon. He then said, “We used to call it summer.”
Don’t get excited about the heat. It happens every year. Remember when you were a kid and didn’t have air conditioning. This is nothing new.
Remember, winter is coming.

Global warming, that's why the winters are so cold. The new terminology is climate change.
ReplyDeleteGreetings Phillip,
ReplyDeleteI lived in Missouri for a few years. They used to have a saying that is claimed by many states: If you don't like the weather, wait a few minutes. It will change.
Since I am now officially a senior citizen I have a hard time keeping up with all the changes in the meanings of words.
Thanks for the comment.
Grace and peace.
