Dang, it’s hot! It’s so hot, I have to put my beer in two koozies just to keep it from boiling. It’s so hot here, I flip off the breaker to my water heater and can still have a hot shower every night. It’s hot enough to make ice coffee sound inviting. Oh, not to drink but to pour over my head. Yeah, it’s hot, but is it hotter than normal?
There’s been a lot of chatter about global warming and climate change. Some folks think it’s a pile of smoldering cow manure while scientists and ex-vice presidents insist it’s for real. While most of the civilized world are doing things to turn down the heat, others deny there is a problem and add fuel to the fire.
I admit I was slow to accept the theory of global warming. I recall standing in six inches of snow last winter, wondering what happened to global warming as I was breaking the ice in the water trough. But as winter transitioned into spring-like weather two days later, I began to ponder over this controversy.
