Al Gore must be getting fatter....

Al Gore is Fat

Losing 19 firefighters in one incident is pretty frightening. It hit 117 degrees in Las Vegas; 102 at one in the morning. It was 129.9 degrees in Death Valley. People are baking cookies in their cars. Meanwhile, Philadelphia is the new Seattle, where it never stops raining and the sun rarely shines. All the creeks around here are raging rivers, almost as high as they get during tropical storms and hurricanes.


But Al Gore is fat.

LOL Ain't that the truth. Although actually Philly has always had a higher avg. rainfall than Seattle (40+ inches vs 36 inches). The June 10.56 inches was a bit much though (record-breaking). Problem over yonder is their number of overcast days.
