Random Opinionatedness

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100602/ap_on_bi_ge/us_arizona_boycotts_california;_ylt=AgT1K53sqZbQZxiCGhPI2P2s0NUE;_ylu=X3oDMTQyMWh2cGswBGFzc2V0A2FwLzIwMTAwNjAyL3VzX2FyaXpvbmFfYm95Y290dHNfY2FsaWZvcm5pYQRjY29kZQNtb3N0cG9wdWxhcgRjcG9zAzkEcG9zAzYEcHQDaG9tZV9jb2tlBHNlYwN5bl9oZWFkbGluZV9saXN0BHNsawNsYWNvdW50eWJveWM-


LA county boycotts Arizona... thats just fine. How about we start by keeping our power and our water? See how quickly things go south. Lemme know how you feel about that. 


Oh and before you go too much further about how we're breaking federal law how's about we discuss your laws on marijuana? Some how the reporters never come at these stories from this angle... 


But I'm just feeling mildly opinionated at the moment. 


Also because I am feeling like a little ray of sunshine - they're currently predicting a record hurricane season. Its all about how hot the Gulf gets and how early it gets there. Basically hot water makes for BIG storms and the last time the water was this hot this early was the year it blessed us with Katrina and Rita. So that looks NO BUENO folks. 


Add that to the giant gushing oil spill in the Gulf... best case scenario they have to abandon ship to take cover every time a storm goes through slowing them down by a few weeks. 


Worst case scenario.... I'm just theorizing here, but hurricanes move water. LOTS and lots of water. In fact when Hurrican Alicia came through Houston in 1980something they said she brought salt water as far inland as Katy (long butt way from the coast). 


Now just imagine oil laden water soaking the coast 100 miles inland. You don't just have to deal with the flooding, and the mud and the water and the wind damage, now you have big fat globs of crude splattered all over everywhere. 


Oh its gonna be funnnnnnn in the sun this summer! Oh and did I mention that my inlaws are spending the summer at their house in Florida while their house is being remodeled? Oh yeah. I'm praying they get lucky again and the storms skip their neighborhood. 


It could happen.
