Under the Radar

So, I was the one who jinxed June (with that one-and-only "what is so rare as a day in June" June blog--unfortunately, as it turned out what was "so rare" were my blogs!). After glorying in the spectacular June weather at the beginning of the month, what happened next? Clouds. Rain. Clouds. Rain. Clouds. Rain..... My fault. Obviously. I jinxed it.


Now, it is July 1st. And it started out with clouds and with a few drops of rain this morning. NOT my fault: I had said NOTHING about July one way or the other. Maybe if I keep a low profile, I will be able to sneak under the weather radar, and we can have more sunshine than clouds this month.

ON THE OTHER HAND . . . . The "climate change" guys--those same guys who used to be the "global warming" guys--actually predicted that some parts of the world would not get a normal summer this year. But, notice how carefully they refrained from calling it "global cooling." "Climate change" is the new terminology that covers every imaginable eventuality. So, no matter what happens they can say they predicted it. And that it is all man's fault.

In my opinion, their "science" is just as much foolishness as my "jinxes." Nevertheless, our political geniuses in Washington DC are going full speed ahead to "stop global warming."
