Love it when it snows


Nothing quiets things down like a nice blanket of snow. The roof is muffled, and the forest too. But I think there may be even more going on. Doesn't snow often here, but every time it sure does seem like the power is cleaner. For sure the listening is better.

@glupson...no...;)  'Course, that hinges on how paranoid or straight-up concerned you may be over what's being reported, warned about, or nay-said about the issue..

My 'take' (or 'HO', be that as it is...); it'd would seem to be 'intelligent' ("Supplies are limited!  Order NOW, or miss the opportunity!") to engage in a response that just might make a difference..

Now, to some poor snot in an Indian slum (who may not view it as such; to them, it's Home....), climate issues may seem light-centuries from their daily drag.....but, responding to what 'perhaps' seems to be pending would seem by the major global 'communities' to be a 'good idea'....'just in case'....'not a bad idea'....:(

One would like to think that leaving one's children knee-deep in rising coastal water while the temps are acting like a yo-yo between storm and drought with all the bee's diseased or dead...and everyone acting like an armed militia, ready to pop a cap into anyone that lets their dog poop on their lawn...

(Yeah, I know I'm being a tad 'extreme'...but actually, I can 'crank it up' more....'Nut-Case Level 11' IS within my scope of trope....)

Here's one....The aliens arrive...(Not the South Americans....'Them', y'know....'off-planet tourista'...)...to find the cockroach is now the 'fittest survivor'.

Us?  DinoDirt.

OMG.....you might have to forestall buying that new $15K amp!  How unfair is that?!  The 'off-worlder's' would have to not have the intrinsic and unique experience of hearing your collection of dusty LP's.....

Leaving them with....

"Humans....*tsk*  what a waste of protoplasm... they may have been fun to hang about with....  Oh, well.  Let's strip mine the place, and move on to the next system..."

 
You and yours truly likely won't be around for the worst of it.

What a Wonderful Legacy.
None of us will be around for the worst of it. Yes folks the planet Earth is doomed, destined to burn to cinders. Matter of fact it will be vaporized. Its a scientific certainty. Earth will burn in the atmosphere of the sun. When it goes Red Giant in just a few (billion) years.
I get it now! The Sec. Treasury is poo pooing climate change because the Government cannot afford to fix the problem. It looks like we’re on our own as usual. Thanks for nothing. As Bob Dylan says at the end of his records, good luck to everyone.
