Al Gore thinks the past ten years of global cooling is just part of a climate cycle... but somehow the previous 10 years of warming wasn't. Bring on the cold!!

So nice to see that the City of Austin's Street Department just "had to" go out and plow the major roadways here in town. What a waste of taxpayers money when the stuff was a classic "here today, gone tommorrow" snow!!! Wonder WTF the Street Dept Clowns where thinking!! NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
