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

Carol Eastman Date: 1/4/2014 9:07:00 AM 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 Login to Reply Jack Ellison Date: 1/4/2014 9:10:00 AM 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

Gwen Benita Mason Gibbs Date: 1/4/2014 8:06:00 AM It is pretty cold, love the poem Jack. Login to Reply Jack Ellison Date: 1/4/2014 8:51:00 AM Gwen!!! I see you've reviewed a bunch of my stuff! Thank you sweet lady! Loving hugs xoxox

Russell Sivey Date: 1/4/2014 7:27:00 AM 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!! Login to Reply Jack Ellison Date: 1/4/2014 7:37:00 AM 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!!!
