More Irrefutable Proof of Global Warming
2013-12-11
A new look at NASA satellite data revealed that Earth set a new record for coldest temperature recorded. It happened in August 2010 when it hit -135.8 degrees. Then on July 31 of this year, it came close again: -135.3 degrees.

The old record had been -128.6 degrees, which is -89.2 degrees Celsius.

#14  TW, maybe I should add a new nym where I only post things that are really sarcastic - something like SarcasmIsUs. That would save me typing the /sarcasm tag at the end of my posts - most of which are sarcastic anyway. :)

#13  According to Texas Lore, Chili Powder was created when on a very cold night some cowboys built a campfire. When they woke in the morning, the blue norther that blew through during the night had frozen the camp fire.

Not to waste anything, the cook thought he could save the fire and he gathered up chunks of it and put it in the chuck wagon. That night he ground up some of it and put it in the stew...

#10  This isn't a theory it's a scam aimed at increasing the power and control of the Watermelon elite.

#9  Rambler in Virginia:

"this sort of thing is predicted by, and part of, climate change"

Not exactly. While its proponents call it climate change, the only theory they have is one of warming. Rather than come up with a better theory, they have simply called it something else. They have also taken to blaming anything and everything on "climate change." Here's a list, which is pretty damn funny.

What do you call a theory which is proved by every event and disproved by none? You call it a fraud.

#4  It was so cold . . .
words froze in the air. If you wanted to hear what someone said, you had to grab a handful of sentences and take them in by the fire!
