11/02/05 global warming
Hello dear readers,
Weather here ( midwest - west of Lake Erie usa )unseasonally mild.
Sunshine is no stranger to us in the fall and winter- but the temps are higher and October was the driest on record....
To anyone who may still be unconvinced of the 'global warming' theory- it doesn't prove anything.......does it ?
I have learned that titles here (blogworld) are important..
Good news from Midland TX- our friend JvB is able to reconnect with the outside world via the Public Library. That he can read and write e mail is essential to his progress/recovery. JvB had been in a coma Jan 2005- recovered and has had a long row to hoe to get to this point. Congratulations and happy birthday to you, J.
We will be hosting a Turkey dinner here on the 3rd Thursday of this month.
An American Tradition.
I have made small progress on the gift list in honor of the December Event.
We are planning to install a wood burning stove inside the existing fireplace.
The plan is to heat with wood by day, and hardly at all by night. The less the furnace runs, the better. OTOH- creating more Co2 in the air doesn't seem like a very good idea, either.
I say I can spend the winter in AZ- and not have to deal with the high gas prices at all.
The problem there is .. water ......is there a place on earth that does not require compromise? I know Brazil is doing a pretty good job of using alternative fuels in their automobiles - climate delightful- no major natural disasters, except severe frost, occasionally. Burning wood for heat there: not necessary.
Loggers are still illegally cutting and selling, from along the Amazon....mostly to the US for hardwood floors to be installed in McMansions.
Halloween was fun. Our little angel costumed as a giraffe- and she was terribly assertive in shouting 'trick or treat' and then wanted to ask for '2' of everything!
The night ended early- but we enjoyed some tasty snacks afterward and the rain didn't fall until all of the neighborhood kids were safely inside. ( In this subdivision - the police come by at an appointed moment and chase every one home, hmmm -kind of like Fascist Italy under Mussolini- when the trains always ran on time.)
OK- no political observations here this morning *_*
enjoy your day
