Not to nitpick, but you don’t get penguins in the Arctic.

Q: Dear Abby, I don’t have the math ability to major in physics, engineering, or anything closely related. But, I do want to “make a difference” in something...even though I don’t have the intellectual firepower. What to do? Thanks from an untalented wannabe.

A: Dear Untalented Wannabe...you should try climate science. Their motto is, “Don’t let bad data get in the way of a good idea.” Also, they have a long and undistinguished history of complete lack of the understanding of statistical analysis let alone any use of the physics of electromagnetic propagation. Your lack of technical abilities will be no hindrance to a long career financed by your government.

This is the coolest summer in Maryland in my memory.

It’s been great.

The farmers have had plenty of rain and should have bymper crops this year.

We don’t have any crabs this year for some reason, there just aren’t many, but that didn’t stop O’Malley from doubling the cost of a crab license.

If you like Obama’s tax and spend you will love O’Malley.

It was only 59° this morning here in Clarksville, TN.

I am not complaining. It feels good

If people pulled out of crab fishing/trapping because the license cost was high, that would be an appropriate policy to permit crab stocks to recover.

They say a stopped clock is right twice a day. Raising taxes is occasionally the right policy. When crab stocks recover, it is to be hoped that reasonable people can get the license fee lowered, so that more crabbers can return to business.

And with the “rain tax” that the Maryland legislature passed we all get to pay a tax on how much it rains based upon the number of square feet of inpermiable surface we have on our property, i.e. the size of the roof our our house, cement driveway, out buildings, and for stores and churches the size of their roofs and parking lots.

I just got my rain tax of $117.00 for a 1,200 sq ft house and 40x8 foot driveway sitting on a .3 acre of land.

The left is in FULL DESPERATION MODE because their AGW/IPCC scam has been collapsing faster than THE FOREIGNER can make his employees disappear before being served a subpoena to testify.

I follow sea-ice levels at this site.

http://arctic.atmos.uiuc.edu/cryosphere/IMAGES/seaice.anomaly.antarctic.png

As of now, here are the levels compared to the 1979-2008 mean:

Northern Hemisphere: Down 1.143 million square kilometers
Southern Hemisphere: Up 1.194 million square kilometers

Net INCREASE in sea-ice compared to 1979-2008 mean: 51 thousand square kilometers

I don’t know if you know it or not pardner, but this is their livelihood. This is how they eat. How do you expect them to pay their mortgages and live while the crabs come back, If they ever do.

If they were farmers they would get something from the Government, but they aren’t .They are hard working waterman whose way of life is dying in front of their eyes.

The oysters all died, they don’t make anything oystering any more, they try to fish during the oyster season , they have families, and bills to pay. So our illustrious Governor shoves double the license fee up when they can hardly pay for bait and gas.

If people pulled out of crab , fish and trapping, how would we get fish crabs and other things?
What idiot do you think would go back to the water after the Government runs them off with high license fees.?

Now please tell me what license fee or tax have you ever seen come down? Reasonable people we are talking about people who are Democrats or elected by Democrats. There isn’t a reasonable POS among them.

Wait until you get your “air tax” bill. If you also exhale, you get hit with a “Carbon Dioxide Tax”, which multiplies your entire tax bill by 1.639.

Hey, bureaucracy ain’t cheap!
