ION, I am trying to decide if I should buy this sofa: [link]# I think it's weird not to sit in it first, but it's so cheap!

Magic 8 ball says 'It is Certain', I'm not sure what that means.

Huh, that doesn't strike me as especially cheap though I suspect that means that I'm cheap.

Of course my furniture place is this:

Nebraska Furniture Mart

My FIL mentioned something about how a scientist that Al Gore quotes or uses or something, now is predicting a cooling cycle. I couldn't say anything about this since I didn't know anything about it.

IIRC, the science behind this is that we are currently in a period of very low sunspot activity, which has historically meant a period of climactic cooling for the planet. (Since low sunspots = less heat coming at us from the sun.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I have totally been to Nebraska Furniture Mart! Good times.

Huh, that doesn't strike me as especially cheap though I suspect that means that I'm cheap.

I go look at Crate & Barrel or similar, and then think that $400 is rock-bottom pricing. Of course in real life, it's a lot of money, but so many sofas are so much more!

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Bobby McFerrin is amazing. If you ever get the chance to see him in concert, do it. DO EEEET.

And, OtoClimateChangeH, there's some thought that it's only jet contrails that are keeping us from catastrophic warming.
