Even Better Than a Sure Thing
Far be it from me to advocate childhood gambling...unless your kid is as shrewd as my 7 year-old niece. A young friend of hers proposed the following wager: “I bet you 10 dollars that if my grandma puts one of my hairs in a microwave, I will be cloned.” My niece took the bet without hesitation. Unless her friend turns out to be Jimmy Neutron, I like her chances.
Al Gore is possibly nuts? The very suggestion is absurd. Boring, pretentious and condescending of course...but crazy? Never. Of course I do wonder how volcanoes, animals and plants produced carbon emissions for millions/billions of years...yet humanity messed up the planet in a little over a century. Hmmmmmm. Science really is amazing stuff.
Of the many crazy things one could spend his/her FEMA relief funds on (food, shelter, medicine), some dude used his Hurricane Katrina Gold Mastercard to buy Girls Gone Wild videos...Disgusting. What a waste of taxpayer money...Oh sorry. Somebody left my radio on NPR.
