Weather has been hot as hell here in Texas. Fortunately for me, my AC died before the worst started, and they replaced it with a kick ass industrial model that just ignores the heat.

I don't know if the weather is that weird. We had tornados in California for years, but they refused to call them tornados. It's only in the last 10 years or so that the country outside of tornado alley is willing to admit that tornados happen elsewhere. And I suspect that's only because someone caught one on video and they couldn't deny it any more.

I do think the weather will get weird, though. I think we're heading into a very bad period in which earthquakes are going to get real bad, and the Pacific line will spawn a new series of volcanos, possibly in California as well, and perhaps the big one in Yosimite will blow. No, not a Christian and don't think it's end times or anything like that. Just think the planet is making some adjustments.

Here's a foolish thing which isn't as looney as it may sound. Oil is lubricant. Oil is underground. We've sucked all the oil out of the earth. No lubrication. Causes friction, Causes earthquakes I think. I know it sounds silly as hell, but if you check the numbers, earthquakes have increased since we've been drilling for oil. Coincidence?

Talent is God's gift to you. Using it is your gift to God.
