Default Global Warming my ***!!!

It was -21*F when I went out to start my car this morning. This is the coldest I have ever seen the temperature go in my life! Car started up pretty good though! My battery is getting a little weak w/ the cold but for the temperature it did great!

It was -22*F when I left for class this morning and the windchill brought it down to -30*F

Guess that's what I get for going to college in Maine.

I love it when it's cold outside and someone makes a global warming remark. You know extreme weather variences/ice ages are a byproduct and result of global warming right? I know it's just a joke.. But yeah, damn cold. Glad I had a snow day from work!

I haven't had school for the last two days because it's been well below zero.

I am in Atlanta and with windchill it was -2 this morning. ATLANTA!!!!!!
By the way. they have all lost that term Global Warming and are now using "Climate Change" in its place to account for the fact that the Avg earth temp has dropped for the last 10 years. So when it's colder than usual, it's probably the US' fault for sure. The UN has to find some way to get money for third world dictator's support.

Well it was also a very nice somewhat mild summer. I can't remember a single time thinking that it was way too hot. I mean it got up to almost 98 a couple times but it wasn't bad for some reason. But ya it's just a joke.
