Paul Azinger: Climatologist?

September 28, 2011 / Posted in Commentary/Opinion, Featured

Twitter is soooo awesome.  It gives you insight into the real personalities of your sports heroes.  Like this!
 
This picture convinces me Global Warming is real! Thx Dan RT @Danielmatusiak http://twitpic.com/6rytt6
 
Inspired by some snafu with Times Atlas and disappearing (or not!) ice sheets it got the ‘Zinger riled up and tweeting with implications that this whole climate change thing is a big conspiracy being perpetuated by pachouli smelling hippies that want to force you into a Nissan Leaf while simultaneously inflicting a chai tea enema on you (PS – They’re delicious!  The tea, not the enema).
 
At any rate, this is a rub with the new world of social media.  Prior to Twitter I thought of Azinger as an opionated, cancer-beating hero.  Now?  Well all that still, but definitely my view has skewed and not really to the favorable.
 
And no, this isn’t an ideological post.  After all I live in Oregon so the left leanings of this state send me over the edge regularly. Extremism is bad yo!  But if you can’t objectively look at ALL the information available and say ‘hmmm yeah maybe our weather is a little FUBAR’ then you’re just being obstinate now aren’t ya?

    I know the word “douche” is French for “shower”. How the heck did/why Americans adopt the word “douche-bag” into their lingo?

    We need to get more witty sayings/words about climate change into the frame. Down to you ‘cos I have better/more important things to do – and you don’t – obviously ;o)
