Erf Day
« on: April 17, 2014, 03:07:29 PM »
Is coming up.   22 April to be precise.  What are your plans for this year's celebration?
Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

I plan to completely ignore it, and live my life as I do every other day.

I may celebrate by writing a nasty letter to the Algore. He needs a few:

http://weaselzippers.us/183066-al-gore-calls-global-warming-skeptics-immoral-unethical-and-despicable/

According to the Algore, I am immoral, unethical, and despicable. I don't think he has any right to call me such names, since he doesn't know me and has never even met me. I rather suspect that if his life history and mine were both submitted to an objective jury, more would find him to be well described by those words than me.

The “barriers” to doing something about climate change are business and political interests that profit off of fossil fuels — “dirty energy that causes dirty weather.” He compared fake science from polluters stating that humans are not to blame for the climate to tobacco companies that used to hire actors to play doctors who denied cigarettes were dangerous.

Hmmm ... what about business and political interests that profit off of unproven, so-called "clean energy" processes and initiatives? What about global warming junk science that cherry picks the data that support their argument, and then have to "cook" even that to make it fit the theory?

Hey, Al -- [****] off.

I have a couple of gallons of water-logged gasoline, but I'm not sure how best to use it in celebration of da Erf. Any suggestions?

If you're suggesting we burn Rachel Carson in effigy along with the tires, I'm ok with it.

Looks like the long overdue 'Big One' is going to happen on Erf Day in Washington State.   Probably be a 9.5 on the Richter scale.  :O
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Burn a thousand lb for me.  What's that, about 160 gallons?  So how many pounds of CO2 does that make for my share?

I've got about 25 gallons of used motor oil and a couple old tires to throw on the big brush pile.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

Not sure on the CO2, but I'll give you the credit for all of it.  I'm taking credit for the chemtrails.

I roughly figured 160 lb is about five minutes of flight time.  So pick five minutes up there and dedicate that to me.  Don't want to be hoggish about it.  Let others have a chance, too.

I was going to calc'late CO2 weight but said the hell with it.  Too many variables, too many assumptions have to be made.
