The work I do here important, and I’ve always hoped that someday, if I worked hard enough, and produced enough clever articles and research, that I’d finally get invited into the exclusive club of climate cash that supposedly the rest of the skeptics are getting. I’ve felt left out, and I thought perhaps because my blog has a funny name that has nothing to do with climate was the reason I never got invited.
Well those days are over. My ship has just come in, and I’m now flush with the promise of cash from the biggest oil company in the world. Yes, that one, Exxon-Mobil.
I’m was so relieved when the notice came in email today.
I’m going to buy a new Tesla roadster, and get “WUWT” license plates to annoy my liberal friends. Then I’m going to buy Kenji a diamond studded dog collar and a barrel of those pupperoni snacks he likes so much, then take the wife and kids on a world wide tour.
Life is good thanks to Exxon-Mobil.

Anthony, Is your ship waiting for the catastrophic sea level rise? Or is it just waiting for the Nile to flood.

whats that??
Tongue in cheek!
Any take on this at SkS?
No, no, you’re doing it all wrong, like all newly rich folks, or like Exxon polishing their hull in coke. See, you gotta think big, think investment, how to turn that million bucks into ten million bucks.
My advice, since it’s all about being green and recycling and what with their so many climate hippies buying into anything with a smooth surface. By dog poop polish,a little bit of hard work, et voila: Kenji’s Nougat, only $9.95 a poop.

I suspect I know what your comment referred to. I think the best reason not snip it would be to head off taking the commentary in to a completely different area, so I agree with REP’s snip. I don’t know enough about Islam to gauge whether Khomeini’s pronouncements fairly represent the religion, and I suspect your intent was not to poke fun at Internet spammers or the mideast oil shipping industry.
I hope that’s an annual income. They couldn’t expect you to survive on a one time injection of this little money.
BTW I got mine from Exxon too. They send me aide in the form of a plastic card. I get to use it for all my gas and when it wears out and the stations say it no longer works I just toss it and wait for another. It seems they just keep coming. Good thing cause I need free gas.
One of the reasons I read this blog every day is your humour. Thanks for bringing a smile to my face this morning.
Mike.
You, too?
According to an email I got from Nigeria, the Saddam Hussan family has determined that I ‘m officially a nice guy and can be trusted with helping them get their family fortune out of Swiss banks. All I have to do, for some reason, is give the my personal information including any bank account numbers. So it seems I’ll be joining you on that world tour shortly. Life is good.
All they need is your banking pin numbers to do the deal
Could we fill in Mike Mann’s info, or would that be considered “bad”?
According to an email I got from Nigeria, a Princess has been left $147,000,000, by a rich uncle from Zanzibar, and I will marry her so as she will get a “Passport to the West”, she will give me half the money.
All I have to do is to send in details of my bank account and credit cards, so she can transfer me my half of the money. What’s worrying me is that the e-mail came from someone called bamumba@xxxxxxxxxx.edu.ca, and that I should reply to rhandarkhan@xxxxxxxxx.pk.
The e-mail was signed Mrs. Edith Palumbo N’gama.
Does this make me a Nigerian Prince now ?
