He and Susie are too funny. I love her outfits...
How about I put some highway miles down there?

Him and Susie. I also liked Tracy Ullman. She was pretty funny too. I just love how foul mouthed they all are. Always shouting and bickering lol.The season finale was funny but not hilarious as it has been all year. And while it was funny I found Vindman's presence, satirization and ultimate monetization of his whistle-blowing to be completely off-putting. Writing a book is one thing. Making light of it on a sitcom is another. Farcical would be the appropriate word.
But Leon...Leon always steals the show. Somehow they've managed to no longer over-expose him and find just the right amount of Leon to write into every episode.

Man, that cracked me up when he told his middle name.

I thought the reference Leon made to Larry about putting bad miles on his Johnson was hilarious.
Perhaps, but there have been many times in the earth’s history where mass volcanic events and other natural occurrences have put more CO2 into the atmosphere and in a much shorter time period. The runaway train thing is a bit over blown. Climate scientist keep slowing the runaway train down and speeding it back up. When I was in school the whole earth day business started and they asserted we’d all be living in rainforests in Canada by now.So putting as much carbon dioxide into the atmosphere as we have since the industrial revolution has no impact? Its a closed-loop system; any significant change would have an impact somewhere. The climate is one terribly obvious example. Same with ocean acidification. I get it; it sucks because if we caused it, we’d seemingly feel compelled to change what we’re doing. Which would mean radically changing energy production and consumption. And a whole bunch of people who hold a lot of power have made vast fortunes, so they’ll block any attempt at change. So we’re heading like a runaway train to a mass extinction event that we’re already seeing the beginnings of. Without transformative change, the only questions will be how quickly will extinction ramp up - and in the long run - will humans be included.
Just not too warm, since the oceans extended all the way to the Davis Mountains at one time. Might be a tad more damp your way.Doesn't really matter. I don't have a lick of respect for them, and ridiculing a projected image of what they think I am is hardly something I would pay to watch. They can fester in their irrelevance for all I care...
As to "Climate Change" it is important to note that it has been far and away warmer than it is now, and it has been far and away colder, too. 13,000 years ago, present day Chicago was under about five miles of solid ice, and glaciers extended as far south as Texas. Much of the ground on my ranch is glacial loess, and this boundary is found in many places in Texas. In the Octagon Fort in Fredericksburg, there is a Wooly Mammoth tusk found during the construction of a bridge some years ago.
I'd rather it be warm.
Actually, supposed to be a slam at Covid deniers from what I read.
Not sure about global warming. Pretty sure it’s happening, just not sure of the cause. 61 on Christmas here when avg usually in the 30s. I have read some accounts from glaciation experts that don’t get wide reporting (shocking) that as arctic ice melts it causes salt to be diluted which will eventually freeze faster, which change currents which will begin a cooling cycle. We are in an inter glaciation warming period that is part of natural cycling. There was just something buried on the back pages recently indicating the Gulf Stream is already showing sign of change. Just not convinced this all or much man made…
But then you can fly west from Chicago and go for hours over the Dakotas, Wyoming and western CO and not see any vehicles or even paved roads. Still a lot of open spaces. Not to mention Siberia, eastern China, Canada 100 miles away from the US border, Australia, the oceans, the poles, et al. Lots of concentrated areas and lots and lots of open space with nothing.For the last 5 years I've been in sales where 90% of my customer base is within the western loop of 820. So I've been blessed with not having to drive much. But in the last couple months I've driven around the metroplex more than I have in years. I got to thinking about all the cars we have just on our roads. Then I got to thinking about the metro areas in Texas...Austin, Houston, San Antonio. Then got to thinking about all the metro areas in the US. We have 56 metro areas of a million people and 7 others within 100k. Then I got to thinking about globally. That's a lot of frickin cars on a daily basis. That's a lot of exhaust. An ass-ton of emissions. On a daily basis. And we've been doing this every day for decades. If what we are told is true then I don't know how the world isn't on fire right now.
I did watch ”Don’t Look Up” last night. I enjoyed it, it’s got a ton of stars in it. The morning show duo of Cate Blanchett and Tyler Perry is great.
did you stay on through the credits? I was entertained.I enjoyed it. Some bad reviews from the no fun crowd. I’m glad I watched it.
If CO2 is the issue, "blue oil" (scope 3 CO2 negative) and straight CO2 sequestration are being ramped up to bridge us to days of more efficient PV cells and energy storage. We can go extinct from something else now.Okay. Sure, dude, I’m sure it’s all a hoax.

If you like steampunk, everything English , excessive mustaches or are a history nerd—go enjoy But only go to your local theater that has the thick, plush seats and/or recline as the 2.5 hours is a bit much.
