To Warm Up Mankind's Behind

Okay people, enough is enough What's happening with this crazy weather Cold enough to freeze the tootsies off a penguin The eskimos are all huddled together So far this winter's been the coldest in years Certainly not a very happy camper Civilized people shouldn't have to live like this Us guys just love to be pampered In all my years, through each Canadian winter This one surely takes the cake Not at all pleased, just want you to know This is more than this guy can't take If I knew who to contact I'd pay big dollars For the sake of all mankind Beg them to moderate these winter temps To warm up mankind's behind © Jack Ellison 2014

What! No global warming! Snicker! Every 11 years the sun flips it's North and South poles... Yep, in the next two weeks it happens... Stirs lots of sun spot activity that affects the weather.Go figure! But We're warm here with Dragon's great furnace and all. Will be high 0 degrees Monday... and low -8... Unusual, but every 11 years we DO get a kick in our pants... I'll keep Dragon in that day so I can warm my tootsies with his roaring fire! LOL... Can't seem to keep the penguins in tho... LOL

Global Cooling is what I would call it! Don't know what all the fuss is about! It just the normal cycle, the ups and downs of this old earth! It's been going on like this for centuries! xoxox

I'm just curious Jack,how cold has it gotten there, or will get there, this winter? We will get single digits with lows down near negative twelve degrees...of course that won't compare to the Canadian air...which would really kill me! I don't know how you can handle it my friend! This is a perfect plea to God for help with this cold weather...to maybe send a warm streak through this winter, that would help! I really enjoyed reading this truthful and wondrous poem this morning! Great Work!!

We live in Southern Ontario which surprisingly parts are on the same latitude as Northern California! So our temps are NORMALLY more moderate! However so far this year has been brutal! Temps in the minus are rare compared to the rest of Canada!!!
