"Use the Farce, Luke"

-- by Horatio Algeranon

Luke Skywarmer and the Deadeye Knights
Asserted climate bragging rights
Claiming to be the "Reasoned Middle"
While playing tunes on Nero's fiddle.



For more on (and of) the same goofiness, read Fiddles and Lyers and The Middle Fiddle (Faddle)

Stairway



Horatio just finished this Stairway to Heaven (or to the basement, at least).

Incidentally, Horatio used a rough-sawn board from the same "slab wood" fire-wood delivery as was used for the bench and "bar" shown here.

Many people don't like knots, but in Horatio's opinion, they are the most beautiful part of the wood.

Thermodynamics


-- by Horatio Algeranon

Earth is warming
Cuz Hell is cooling
Who do these scientists
Think they're fooling?

The CO2
Is not to blame
The latter claim
Is to their shame

Lucky for them
That Hell grows colder
Cuz that is where
They will grow older.

Noise


-- Horatio Algeranon's perversification of yet another beautiful song 
("Words", by the Bee Gees)


Cycle an everlasting cycle
A cycle could bring a Prize to me
Don't ever let me find it gone
'Cause that would bring the flies to me

CO2 has lost it's glory
Let's start a brand new story
Now Mike Mann
Right now
There'll be no other time
and I can show you
How Mike Mann

Engage in everlasting noise
And dedicate it all to me
And I will give you all my cherries
I'm here if you should call on me

You think that I don't even mean
A single graph displayed
It's only noise, and noise is all
I have to take your warmth away

You think that I don't even mean
A single graph displayed
It's only noise, and noise is all
I have to take your trend away

It's only noise, and noise is all
I have to take your trend away


Inspired by Nothin' but noise

Loopy on the web with deny-mans

-- Another Beatles diversification from Horatio Algeranon

Picture yourself on a blog on the internet
With sciencey themes and American Pi's
Somebody calls you, you censor quite quickly
A blog with kaleidoscope lies

Surface-station photos of blacktop and grills
Challenging all of the trends
Look for a blogger with the sun in his eyes
And he's gone

Loopy on the web with deny-mans
Loopy on the web with deny-mans
Loopy on the web with deny-mans, ah

Follow it down to a seat in the Senate
Where oil execs attract George Marshall flies
Everyone smiles as you drift past the dung-heap
That grows so incredibly high

Cosmic ray theories appear on the shore
Waiting to take you away
Go on attack with your head in the clouds
And you're gone

Loopy on the web with deny-mans
Loopy on the web with deny-mans
Loopy on the web with deny-mans, ah

Picture yourself snapping photos of stations
With FOX News reporters with fossil fuel ties
Suddenly, someone is there with a term style
The blog with kaleidoscope lies

Loopy on the web with deny-mans
Loopy on the web with deny-mans
Loopy on the web with deny-mans, ah

Loopy on the web with deny-mans
Loopy on the web with deny-mans
Loopy on the web with deny-mans, ah

Loopy on the web with deny-mans
Loopy on the web with deny-mans
Loopy on the web with deny-mans

No-warm Man

Horatio Algeranon’s diversion of another classic (Apologies to John Lennon, RIP)

He’s a real No-warm man,
Sitting in his Nowarm Land,
Making all his Nowarm plans
for nobody.


Doubtless has a point of view,
Knows just where he’s going to,
Isn’t he a bit like John Christy?


Nowarm Man please listen,
You sure know what you’re missing,
Nowarm Man, WUWT is at your command!


He’s as blind as he can be,
Just sees what he wants to see,
Nowarm Man can you see me at all?


Nowarm Man, don’t worry,
Take your time, don’t hurry,
Leave it all till somebody else
lends you a hand!


Doubtless has a point of view,
Knows just where he’s going to,
Isn’t he a bit like John Christy?


Nowarm Man please listen,
you sure know what you’re missing
Nowarm Man, WUWT is at your command!


He’s a real Nowarm Man,
Sitting in his Nowarm Land,
Making all his Nowarm plans
for nobody.
Making all his Nowarm plans
for nobody.
Making all his Nowarm plans
for nobody!





For context, read Roy Spencer, man of mystery
