COMMENTARY FROM jeffmoskin

I'll try to comply, but some of this stuff is just too funny.

Keep it coming, jeffmoskin!

Very cold out here (for us wimps, that is). Down to the low 40s tonight. Maybe high 30s. And our gas bill is super high, thanks to Putin. I wonder who is raking in all the $$$.

[thelivyjr]

40 out there would be cold, while it is balmy here in the winter ...

As to who is raking in all the BIG BUCK$ on high gas prices, why it is Janet "TOODLES" Yellen in the treasury department ...

And our gas prices back here are super high because of Joe Biden ...

That is Joe's way of FORCING us to have to buy a very expensive EV, instead, to save money, which is a ridiculous premise ...

Joe wants to do away with all fossil fuels and his way of doing that is to make gas into a luxury item so that only the rich have access to it ...

The rest of us are going backwards to a primitive lifestyle where we won't even have fires to keep us warm, because they emit CO2 ...

So enjoy the heat while you still have it, jeffmoskin, and for the future, try to find a good bearskin coat or robe to wear in the winter, because without fire, you are going to need it ...

[jeffmoskin]

We will still be burning fossil fuels 100 years from now. Why? Because it is such a convenient form of energy, and the entire planet is configured to use it.

Our best hope for climate action is carbon capture and storage, and a lot of new research has lowered the cost by a factor of 10. That makes it affordable, so all we need is for leadership to adopt it.

Oh, sorry. I forgot. We don't have any

Good afternoon, jeffmoskin and right on with that last!

[thelivyjr]

Did you get much snow last night, jeffmoskin?

Did you have to do any shoveling?

[jeffmoskin]

Oh no. Not me. There is a pretty dusting up on Mount Baldy (elev 10,000 ft), but nothing down here in the boring flatlands.

[thelivyjr]

Good afternoon, jeffmoskin!

That is how I spent my morning back here in Old America - shoveling snow ...

Great exercise and you don't have to pay a health club fee to get it ...

Along with some fresh air and sunshine which are good for the immune system ...

[jeffmoskin]

We live in a townhouse on 3 stories, so I get plenty of exercise right here without leaving the house.
