Here is your chance again to join “Josh of the Month Club”. Samples follow.
After the great response we had last year, Josh has sent his artwork across the pond to provide a special WUWT calendar for USA and Canadian readers again this year. It contains artwork more centric to issues here on this side of the pond, along with one cartoon never before published on WUWT.
These make great Christmas gifts for yourself, your friends, or some of those special people like Mike Mann that need some cheer and enlightenment. Recall that last year Dr. Mann turned our simple gift into another conspiracy theory rant. No hard feelings, I’m happy to send him a new calendar again this year.
Here is the cover art:
(note – low res, actual calendar print done with hi-res graphics):
Here is what January 2014 looks like:
And, in addition to regular holidays, it has some special days marked on the calendar too.
Each calendar is $19.99 plus $5 shipping (plus $1.25 packaging and handling -total $6.25) plus tax for your state (sorry, can’t escape that one) and will be shipped direct to you. Josh and I split the profit.
- Printed on durable, matte cardstock
- Hanger hole punched at the top
- Measures 8½” x 11″ closed, 17″ x 11″ open
- Delivery by US Mail (delivered in about 5-10 business days, longer for Canada)
===========================================================
ORDERING: USA/Canadian readers can place calendar orders here.
NOTE: UK/European readers should order via Josh’s website here.
==============================================================
UPDATE: Simon Turnill of Australian Climate Madness writes that he has a few SkS gag gifts for Christmas. Most are virtual, but there’s a cup O’Lew you can buy.
I have one unbending rule : If it is published in Newscientist I assume it is wrong until proven otherwise
I am ordering one and I hope you make enough money to been seen as a climate profiteer!

“White Christmas” — Bing Crosby
Mann might be too busy keeping his head down to look at the calendar just yet, because of a review on amazon.com of The Hockey Stick Illusion.
H/T Mike Mangan and James Evans at http://www.bishop-hill.net/unthreaded/
“… on Nov 30th, “Climate Follower” writes a review of THSI. The review essentially says: “Don’t read this revolting book, instead read Michael Mann’s brilliant book which is the bestest book what was ever writed.”
A few hours later you write a comment that is highly critical of the review.
The next day Michael Mann mysteriously turns up and writes “you are a disgusting piece of filth, a poor excuse for a human being. You have been reported to Amazon, vermin.”
A few hours later he deletes the comment, but thankfully you had already copied it.
Have I got that right? If so, perhaps we can indeed make the following guesses:
“Climate Follower” is Michael Mann.
– He received an automatic email telling him that someone had responded to his review.
– He responds by spewing bile.
– He then realises he’s accidentally spewed the bile using his own name.
– He deletes.”
This isn’t a Josh cartoon, but I thought you might want to post a link to this image at Investors Business Daily… fridgidly funny.

Mod!!! Oh, that is so cool! Thank you, so much, for letting me know that at least ONE person (and a very important one, too!) checks out the Virtual Advent Calendar.
If you are the one who made the witticism re: “typetty” = font for unimportant topics — nice one! I only noticed your edit late yesterday evening. Thanks for all the fun.

@ur momisugly Mod — lol. And, thank you (on behalf of ALL of us commenters).

“Ode to Joy” — with Beaker!
And now, the real thing…
Beethoven a man of great personal courage, was severely hearing-impaired by the time he wrote this great, bold, work giving voice to truth, love, and beauty. It is a heroic work both in its quality and in what it took to write it. It is a fitting song with which to honor our courageous Hero for Truth, An-thony Watts, also hearing-impaired, who boldly walks into the arena, writing the truth for the love of humanity. What a beautiful person.

Hi, Mod! #(:)) Yes, although I am in PST land, I just can’t stay up that late every night… . PLUS, in Australia, at 10pm PST it is (IIRC) 3pm the next day already. Well, I may, indeed, have to remove my bow to put on my racing helmet, lol, but, there is always a Chevy bowtie in my heart!

“Breath of Heaven” — Amy Grant
It’s easy to forget. It is easy to forget that little family, Joseph with a wife pregnant with a child he knew was not his, Mary, about to have her first baby, far from home. Life got very complicated and frightening and rough for a long time. And, yet, all was well. God doesn’t promise us an easy road. He just promises to go with us, guiding, protecting, and comforting — every step of the way.
Hello Anthony,
I purchased a calendar Dec 2. Great stuff!
What is the expected shipping time?
I was hoping to give it as a gift this Holiday. Is it going to make it?…
Thank you much.
REPLY: A bunch shipped last week and many more tomorrow now that I am back from AGU. Don’t worry. – Anthony

(yes, I posted this video on WUWT once before,
but, it seemed timely to post it again, tonight)
Just ordered a couple of them and glad to see that they’re available as calendars. Might be better to use some of Josh’s cartoons as calendars as one of his T-shirt cartoons has people staring at my chest for quite long periods of times (great caroon, just too much happening to be on a T-shirt)
