“Message from Lord Monckton for you, sir. What does ‘All your base are belong to us’ mean?” <– That one is pure awesome. Merry xMas!
OT
OK – I’ll believe it is a conspiracy.
Just for the fun of it I played with a couple of search engines.
A few days back “Hide t” gave a top fill in response of Hide the Decline.
Today – nada zilch nihil nope – you have to type it out completely.
Completely torn between “Mission accomplished” and “Shovel ready”. Both pithy and to the point.
“The Al Gore Effect”
Priceless !!!
And a very merry Christmas to you and yours Anthony! (That includes the “staff” at WUWT)
I’m off to dream of sugar plums. (I have 5 prezzies under the tree with my name on them!)
“All your base” song from video game, in case you’re unfamiliar. It’s 20 years old.
Every time Obama says “Let me be perfectly clear . . .” it is the lead in to a gigantic lie. It is the essence of a serial liar.
Shovel ready.
Merry Christmas to all.
Thanks for an educational and entertaining year.
And Anthony, thanks for the important work you do.
I’ve stuck a little something in your stocking.
How ’bout “Do you think we could hide the de-plane?”
Merry Christmas all. Somehow I think this winter will be one for the books. I remember as a teenage reading a verse from the Bible that said, “The universe fights on the side of the just.” Don’t ask me where it is, but it stuck. I think about that everytime the “Gore” effect shows up.
“I’m officially renaming this plane, Air Force Hockey stick graph!!!”
Anthony, mods and commentators –
This is the bestest Christmas evah!
Thank you all for your tireless efforts on behalf of those who seek the truth.
Merry Christmas, and all the very best for the festive season!
Remember. Weather is not climate.
Merry Christmas.
“Whoa! How’d the polar bear get on this plane?”
Obama: Quote for the press, “If it wasn’t for global warming, this would be an Ice Age event”. They’re so gullible they’ll buy anything I say now.
Merry Christmas to all my friends at WUWT. Though we don’t always agree it is so nice to visit a site about climate and have a reasonable discussion with out all the name calling and a large number of the commenters signing their names taking responsibility for their opinions and posts.
I consider each and everyone here a friend and look forward everyday to visit the site. It is a great credit to Anthony and all his elves that this site is so educational and inspiring.

I’m sorry Mr. President, you are going to have to wait at the terminal for quite a while before the limo shows up. It seems that they are having a hard time attaching the snow plow to the Prius Hybrid. No, I can’t explain it either. The snow plow worked fine for Bush when they used a F-150.
Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy New Year, and/or whatever salutation is most appropriate for Anthony and all at WUWT.
If only the people currently in charge of the Executive and Legislative Branches of the US Government in D.C. were even remotely as inclined to true public service as WUWT, the USA and the world would be far better off. . . .
I threw a little tip in the jar, too, to thank Anthony for the serious work, and also for the sheer entertainment value of Climategate and associated hijinks!
WUWT has been required reading, every evening.
The quality of posts from both Anthony and the guest posters, has really made the Climategate scandal interesting and exciting, like a detective novel, and yet very important and provocative to think about.
Merry Christmas, all!
OBAMA SURVIVED FEBRUARY 3, 1959!!!
(My remark: February 3, 1959, was the night, when Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, the Big Bopper, and their pilot died in a plane crash, near Clear Lake, Iowa, during a blizzard.)
Weren’t we supposed to go south out of Copenhagen?
or
Good for global warming … else we couldn’t get the gantry out!
I thought i told phil to address this situation.
Happy Fill-in-the blank to you and all your people.
Thanks for all your work, not forgetting getting Steve at CA running again after his own blizzard. The importance of your effort this year may even exceed that of last year, when Surface Stations had its great sprint towards the end.
I’m putting a particularly shiny lump of coal into your tipple jar.
None of these make me laugh. However… I tend towards internet meme humor.
