All I know is that I live in Central Illinois, and as I drive around I am surrounded by fields and fields of beautiful green corn.

IMHO, it's President Camacho's fault...

Umm, Mother Nature hands Obama his pretext for declaring a "national emergency" and cancelling the election?

Seattle – 3rd Coldest June on Record

June also the wettest as was March. I didn't check the other months in 2012.

I just finished a DVD checked out from the library on the subject from a past PBS program. It was ugly.

We would have record profits here in Australia. We are having cool and a lot of rain...should be near a record year for grain production.

Is this the first time there’s ever been a drought or heatwave in this country?


Nope.. I remember the stories my grand parents told me about the great depression and the dust bowls..

If memory is serving me right.. history looks to be repeating it’s self.

“Oh, and because of the global warming, or the global freezing, the sky is falling and we are all going to die.”

No, we’re not going to die, ever. You are the mother of a new baby goose, Hoppy, who only has one leg and I have young Prissy, the Yorkie, to raise.

I always knew I would have to go to your state and save your butt with my preps when the time comes.
