The Sunday Funnies

Josh has been busy on the day of rest and this “Global Day of Doing”. He writes:

More on the Wegman plagiarism story. I still cannot work out whether this is a distraction from something else or another massive own goal. A very helpful post by Tom Fuller over at WUWT tho’. Which inspired this.

It is the 10:10 Global Day of Doing.

It is ten minutes past ten o’clock on the tenth day of the tenth month of 2010.

A thought…

As it is a Sunday I am celebrating with not doing a whole heap of things, and

doing a lesser carbon-cutting heap of jolly good things like gardening and drawing.

…saving the planet one cartoon at a time 😉

BONUS EXTRA: Motivated by the evil annoying feckless bunny, I followed a link back to Hot-Topic New Zealand, who just can’t stand the fact that we are beating him 7-1 in reach in NZ, and so decided to write a smear article.

Only one problem for our truffle farmer turned climate crusader – his lack of tolerance for dissent in even the simplest form:

Wow, I’ve been called “thin skinned” for not tolerating some abusive anonymous trolls, but when you disable portions of your own website just to deny all visitors the chance to give their invited opinion, well that’s the kind of exclusionary thing you’d expect a 10:10 supporter to do.

Maybe he’ll put it back his thumbs-down “dislike” button. No pressure. Heh.

I made sure that I waited until today to mow my yard 🙂

Come to think of it, he’s right. Drawing with a pencil is a form of carbon sequestration.

Somehow, it 10:10 has jumped from 73,000 to 96,000 again. in a day
Exploding Mr Cresoote was one of them

I think I will commemorate the day by mixing up a batch of vinegar and soda, creating a whole bunch of new “carbon pollution”. Heh, heh, heh.

Presently, I’m waiting for the lumberyard to open so I can nail some more sequestered carbon on the the front of my house.

As the right hand is absent, are we to assume that it does not know what the left hand is proposing to do? If so, it seems very appropriate.

As usual, the infamous Iowahawk is several steps ahead of the pack, having hosted virtual Earth Day hotrod cruises in past years. His present “contest” is up at http://iowahawk.typepad.com/iowahawk/2010/10/

Why is this 30% ice extent
http://ocean.dmi.dk/arctic/icecover.uk.php
so different to this 30% ice
http://arctic-roos.org/observations/satellite-data/sea-ice/observation_images/ssmi_ice_area.png ???
DMI is showing that currently NH 30% ice is above all years except 2006 (in fact the Area under curve for the melt period is above 2009 now (that is MORE ice)

Hmmmmm …
Approxiamtely twenty minutes or so until that magic moment arrives here on the east coast … 10:10:10:10:10:10:10:10:10, and on and on. Franny and her cohorts … none too bright. Now’s the moment’s passed, does her organization fold with but one crowning moment of glory, the viral video see the world over.
Or on the morrow, will 10:10 rise phoenix-like as 11:11?

Very good !!!

October 10, 2010 7:01 am

Today is the campaign day of 10:10. It is also 65 year since the formation of North Korea’s communist party. To celebrate this rare occasion, the Dear Leader Kim Jung-il today said he encourages the South to follow him in his 99:99 campaign.
Cut the carbon footprint relative to the depraved capitalist South by 99%.
They should follow in the footstep of North Korea’s shining example!
Night picture!
The Dear leader later added “I have red button too” No pressure!
This is satire!

q10/10 or 9/11 they stand for the same. Terrorism!!!! ( and add up to the same).

I do a lot of drawing with pencil. Is the carbon damage offset when you erase.

Many of you may not be aware that 10:10 are inviting supporters to send in photos of their Sunday lunch today. See here for details and a sample:

Shouldn’t it be a day for not breathing, the CO2 not generated would be a fine present to Gaia. Indeed, my computer model suggests that if all warmies hold their breath until midnight ………. there will be a lot less irritating people around tomorrow. I bet that’s better than you thought!

I’ve sequestrated a delivery of 400kgs of carbon in my coal bunker…

[Now it has come to Haiku! (kim’s: at 5:54 am)]
There will be a Global Climate Action Day event here in this little Northern California Town. I wonder if it will be a celebration? After all, total global cyclonic energy is at a 33 year low. Antarctic sea ice was near record high. Arctic temps were colder than average nearly all summer. We’ve had fewer days above 90° this year than is typical. I’ll I ask the questions, but make sure I have a clear escape route first.

What a beautiful 10-10-10…
The temperature is nice in the house… I will turn up the furnace.
It’s a nice day out there… I will cut the grass.
Oh, I see one or two leaves in the driveway… I will use my 2-stroke leaf blower.
This afternoon we will go some off-road in our big AWD.
To finish it off, we will have a big bbq and a deep fried turkey.
On Thanksgiving Day, I am thankful of all of mankind’s technology that make our life fun and enjoyable.

Under the Delivery Partners of the 1010 org., you can read:
“Olswang LLP
Keeping us out of jail, free”
Brilliant, I thought. So they are keeping you out of jail when you kill people?
I then found at the Olswang LLC website
http://www.olswang.com/main.asp?sid=135
that they write: “Our pioneering and problem-solving ethos …”
Maybe Olswang endorse that kind of “problem solving ethos”, maybe they are just as “pioneering” as 1010 in the video?
One should ask them about their ethos and about their “keeping 1010 out of jail” – they have a contact page on the website.

Sequestered carbon is now turning yellow, orange, and red, and falling all over my lawn. Do I rake them up to be burned, immediately adding to the current CO2 content of the atmosphere, or do I pile them down by the far fence to seep back slowly? I suppose since the sequestered carbon structures from whence these came will need it next spring, I shall do the former.

So many own goals, (I mean gifts), from the warmists, I think we probably have enough to rewrite the lyrics of ‘The twelfth day of Christmas.’
On the second day of Christmas, 10:10 gave to me,
two exploding children and a decline that was hidden in a trick.
Ok, I’m not very good at it. Ideas anyone?
