Global Cooling Update

It's frickin' freezing here in New Fallujah!!! Yesterday evening it was 0. Yes, that's ZERO. And that was without the wind chill. It's warmed up today to about 7. Yes, that's SEVEN, not seventeen or twenty-seven - SEVEN. And I'm not talking celsius.

I was watching the local news the other day and they had a radar showing the frigid temps and the weatherman had to point out that the big blank area over Minnesota was due to the fact that their radar equipment did not measure tempuratures below -30. Yes, that was colder than NEGATIVE THIRTY.

Now, if this isn't enough evidence for you all to go out and buy pickups and SUVs, I don't know what is. We are talking about the coldest temps Fairbanks, Alaska has seen in eight years! Don't you know the water will freeze and the poor polar bears won't have anywhere to swim or fish??
