It of course, screams for a caption. I’m sure our readers can provide one.

Here’s the original caption and story from the NYT.

Major Snowstorm Hits Atlantic Coast

A major winter storm was moving up the Atlantic Coast on Friday night, with forecasters expecting accumulations of one to two feet of snow in some areas.

Obama promised “Hope and Change” but I didn’t think he meant a change to an Ice age!

ZT 16.18.22, Leigh 16.03.07 and Gtrip 16.39.17 get my vote but I could add
Captain (Loudly) “Careful Sir, there is a lot of empirical evidence on the stairs.”
Captain (Sotto voce) “Do a barrel roll!”
Or
“Well the climate thing is a total failure…what about pirates? Can I save the world from pirates?”

This damn snowstorm has got me trapped for 3 days. For once, I almost agree that global warming could be a good thing.
Of course, the last time it snowed this hard in DC was the 6th warmest year on record.

Maybe the climate just likes to punish DC with lots of snow in cold years.

Occasionally, we are able to witness the humor of God. This is one of those times. The arrogance of humans has had a comeuppance.
Obama’s world is a cheap snow globe and I am glad that he has been caught it it.

Attention East Coast big city people:
I know you aren’t used to having this much snow but don’t go pulling out guns just because there’s a snow ball fight—simmer down now.
