I Rant a Bit


Яйця зеленого кольору і свиня
While Chief Ican and Dr. Jim were talking suddenly there was a plate of green eggs and ham in the center of the street.
Dr. Jim stepped outside and studied the apparition for a moment or two. Then he said “ I can see the magic trail where the spell came from. Come with me and we will check it out.”
Chief Ican joined Dr. Jim and they started down the street toward Petrovich’s office and Chief Ican felt sure it was one of the Petrovich children.
But he kept on walking until they reached the Lutheran parsonage. There they found Elijah standing up in his crib looking out the window that faced main street and watching the “Green Eggs & Ham” book play out there.
“This is your magic baby “, Dr. Jim said. “No doubt about it”
Chief Ican and Dr. Jim sat down with Pastor Joan and explained that her child had fantastic magic ability. Dr. Jim couldn’t really tell how powerful the child was because the protective spell over the child prevented him from getting a solid reading. But from what the child had produced he knew the child had great power.
Dr. Jim offered with the consent of Pastor Joan to put a protective spell over Elijah that would prevent him from doing magic. In effect the spell would keep the magic words from going anywhere. They would never be heard and hence no magic would happen.
Pastor Joan agreed and Dr. Jim cast the spell. He then wrote out a full copy of the spell and gave it to Pastor Joan. “ If the spell has to be removed any person with magic ability should be able to do so with this information. There, is a strong likelihood that there will come a time when the child’s power will be great enough for him to remove the spell himself”, Dr. Jim said.

Global Warming scares me. It really dies.
If the scientists are right and CO2 is the cause then we are in serious trouble.
What we’ve done and what we plan on doing won’t even make a dent in the amount of CO2 being generated in the world. AS fast as we cut back others are adding to the amount.
Thus the worst of the predictions are going to come true. There will be a massive rising of the oceans. There will be draught. There will be floods. Life as we know it will be over. Mankind will be hard pressed to survive.
If all of this is true then we are doing everything wrong.
We are like the poor old guy who lives in a drafty old cabin told that a hurricane is coming puts boards over his windows and patchs some holes but he knows the hurricane will blow the cabin away. But he has to do something.
We see the coming disaster and we patch the holes on the old cabin. Well we patch some of the holes.
It’s time to stop and ask where would be the best place to put our money.
Stop fooling around with CO2.
Start looking for solutions that will lead to our survival.
If CO2 is the problem we need to be looking at ways to get it out of the atmosphere not preventing it from getting there.
WE need to be looking at ways to influence the Jet Stream.
We need to find ways to protect the coastal areas , at least for a time.
We need to look at getting water to draught areas.
Perhaps we need to find ways to reflect some of that heat back out into space.
We need to put our efforts into surviving.
It will be too late when all these things are happening to try to find answers.
WE have a three or four year grace period to get ready in.
Let’s get going.
Let’s survive.

  1. The first step to ensuring everyone's survival is to stop the name calling/finger pointing and work together. That is probably the biggest hurdle of all.

  2. It is not possible to "ensure everyone's [physical] survival." Each human being has a beginning and an end.

    But...

    "For as in Adam ALL DIE, even so in Christ SHALL ALL BE MADE ALIVE."

    Just thought I'd throw that into the mix for good measure

  3. Good Morning, Dr. John. First I want to thank you for inviting Dr. Jim in to help you. He seems to be working with the locals there to get a lid on the situation.
    I am glad that the chief and Pastor Joan all cooperated to settle things. Yes, that seems right, the spell someday does need to be broken and removed. These in limbo situations are never perfect.

    I will be silent on Global Warming and greenhouse gasses and Co2 today. Just say I believe in it all but don't have a very large pulpit likes of which some others trying to do good can access.
    Too bad but some of the very big guns are being ballyhooed very badly by the bullys in charge who getting pimp money from the bad culprits.

  4. Well... how about that! Little Elijah is MAGIC! That Oops is something else! It's kinda sad there will be no more nursery rhyme characters and such... but better to stop it before he mutters something during a temper tantrum! LOL!

    LOL! One day the WORLD is going to end! And it's not going to be pretty. Maybe Global Warming is in God's plan! But now I know why you no longer have TIME for one more blog game!!! Personally, I'm not a bit worried about Global Warming... or Global Freezing... or the sun burning out, or a meteor hitting earth! I live 20 miles from a nuclear power plant - and even THAT doesn't scare me! God is in control and whatever happens, happens.

  5. I like what you've said and what Lou said.

    If only we could all work together and get things going.

    I goggle at all the people who can't see what is right in front of their noses.

    Something bad is happening to our world. What is going to be left for us in the near future let alone the future of the next generation following us.

    Amazing.

    I try to do my bit every single day. I'm conscious of my actions and try to hurt the earth as little as possible. I'm trying not to leave a footprint on the earth - just a message somewhere that I've been here.

    I knew it. Pastor Joans child. Well now that it's solved no more nursery rhymes in Pigeon Falls for a while? I bet Elijah is going to be of some great use in the future.

    If only the politicians would do what they were elected to do instead of name calling and pointing fingers at one another we might all be better off. They need to read your post :)

  7. You know, Maybe Melli is right and this is God's Plan. As for this Cold Calgary Winter, though we've been having a Chinook lately, it has been a long cold Winter.

    Thom and some of the others commenting are also correct, we all have to work together to try and solve this. But unfortunately not everyone will be on board.

    I wouldn't worry too much Dr John, In your and my lifetime I don't think we will see all the Glacier Waters be melted.

  11. A magic baby scares me... and yes, the happenings on our Earth. We are told things like 'drive less to reduce the damage to the Earth' or 'reduce, reuse, recycle' and these things are like putting a Band-aid on a hole in a big water dam. Meanwhile our governments do far worse things to Mother Earth.

    I found your post most interesting, Dr. John. I agree with much you have written.

    Dr. John, I understand I owe you an apology. I have written one to you on my blog if you care to visit and read it. I did not mean to be rude, I was just dense.

  12. I think this Global Warming stuff and the changement of clima or whatever had always existed otherwise Noah wouldn't have saved all the animals !

    I don't doubt the existence of climate change, but I truly wonder how much is caused by mankind and how much is simply the natural order of things in this world.
    At this point, I think we should be investing research into the question of how we will live with the changes coming our way. (I heard tonight on the radio that perhaps it would be unwise to make a long-term investment in property on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, since it might be under water in 100 years.)
