This So-Called Global Warming

The so-called experts have been saying lately
There's a slow down in global warming
It's true, it hasn't been very tropical lately
Global warming is under performing

Do you think it's possible it just could be
A normal fluctuation in the world's temps
But who am I to offer this assessment
Why they're fluctuating to this extent

Could it possibly be the experts have it wrong
Oh forgive me for suggesting such a thing
After years and years in “forecasting” school
With diplomas under their wing

Weather forecasting is a lot of guesswork
Next to impossible to predict the future
There's so many variables to affect the outcome
Even with all those fancy computers

Carol Eastman June 25, 2014 at 1:59 PM Love this Jack! The sun spots are happening, but there are more spots in the brains of those experts! They can only tell it's going to rain... Cause it's already raining and headed our way. You know if it's global warming- The politicians have stock in sun screen companies... The cooling side is predicted when they own stock in a parka Company! Oh! Thanks for the advice... It helped... Dragon says hi! He's anxious for me to get back to writing about him! Gotta go!... Honestly! Pushy Dragon! Jack Ellison June 26, 2014 at 6:48 AM Methinks you are spot on with your assessment, my dear Carol! LOL XOXOXOX
