brrrrr

I was intending to go outside this morning and work in the garden.  I changed my mind as soon as I opened the door.

The temperature is barely above freezing, and the windchill is sub-freezing.

I hope none of the sprouts outside were damaged last night.  Here's frost on the dandelions and grass in the backyard.



Hopefully you'll understand if I'm not thrilled at today being the 40th Earth Day.

boobquake: 2010 April 26 Monday

I have a few female readers at this blog, and I wanted to make sure they all knew about this opportunity to display the supernatural power of their cleavage.  No, seriously.

We already know that the homosexuals are responsible for God allowing Americans to die at the hands of terrorists.  As it turns out, low necklines (and short shorts) are responsible for God sending earthquakes to destroy cities.  Who knew?  One of God's own prayer leaders, that's who.

""Many women who do not dress modestly ... lead young men astray, corrupt their chastity and spread adultery in society, which (consequently) increases earthquakes," Hojatoleslam Kazem Sedighi was quoted as saying by Iranian media. Sedighi is Tehran's acting Friday prayer leader."

Those are some mighty boobs, indeed.

Naturally, one bright woman thought of a way to test that theory.  Women: Plan on Monday to wear your clothes that are least modest.

I have a modest proposal.  Sedighi claims that not dressing modestly causes earthquakes. If so, we should be able to test this claim scientifically. You all remember the homeopathy overdose?  Time for a Boobquake.

I'm tempted to start a parallel "moobquake" event in a masculine gesture of solidarity, but then we'd muddy the scientific purity of the experiment that is underway.  Instead, I'll just point everyone to the Facebook page for the event (and they already have 64,610 attendees registered):

Heterosexual men:  I'm sorry, but I don't know what to recommend.  Should you take your cameras to work on Monday in order to participate in the apparently-necessary immodest thoughts?  Or do you resist temptation so that we know for sure that the earthquake wrath is brought upon us solely because of those wicked women ways?  This confused homosexual is staying out of that debate.
