    Darn that George Bush - must be his fault - yet another thing he has done that contributes to global warming.

    Yes, that is sarcasm, yes, I do expect to see a story saying essentially this soon.

      My family owns a restaurant that makes stromboli, but it's not a pasta (at least not at my family's place). It's kind of like a calzone - fresh spinach, pepperoni, provolone, and a little pesto rolled up in homemade dough, baked and served with a little marinara.

      I never knew it was named after an island...

      Send Rosie O'Donnell and Al Gore to Sicily. If a the vulcano erupts and causes a tsunami, they can then jump in the water and cause a counter-tsunami to null out the one from the vulcano.

        just a funny thought...

        why don't we play AL VERSUS THE VOLCANO????

        set up some cameras and get the networks out,

        Al can leap in, stopping the flow with his fat pompous ass,

        getting credit for doing his part to reduce greenhoue gasses.

          Maybe he could give you some punctuation and an extra s before he jumps in.
