A man had been in a meeting that lasted all afternoon and as he walked out, he was tired and just wanted to go home. He reached into his coat pocket and realized his car keys were missing. He looked around but could not find his keys. He went outside to look in the car and discovered his car was gone too.
His car had been stolen. So he called the police, they came and took a report, and then the man called his wife to see if she would be able to come pick him up. She answered the phone and he told her the upsetting news. “Honey, you’re not going to believe this but my car was stolen while I was in the meeting.” There was a long pause, “I dropped you off at your meeting today. I have the car!” she said. “Oh, that’s right! I can’t believe I forgot that. I’m glad the car is okay. Well, will you still come back and pick me up?” She said, “Yes, of course I will. As soon as I convince this cop the car is not stolen.”

Radical change in climatic conditions is melting Arctic ice and disrupting wildlife.
The Arctic Ocean is warming up, icebergs are growing scarcer and in some places the seals are finding the water too hot, according to a report to the Commerce Department yesterday from Consulate at Bergen Norway. Reports from fishermen, seal hunters and explorers all point to a radical change climate conditions and hitherto unheard-of temperatures in the Arctic zone. Exploration expeditions report that scarcely any ice has been met as far north as 81 degrees 29 minutes. Soundings to a depth of 3,100 meters showed the Gulf Stream still very warm. Great masses of ice have been replaced by moraines of earth and stones, the report continued, while at many points well-known glaciers have entirely disappeared. Very few seals and no white fish are found in the eastern Arctic, while vast shoals of herring and smelt which have never before ventured so far north, are being encountered in the old seal fishing grounds. Within a few years it is predicted that due to the ice melt the sea will rise and make most coastal cities uninhabitable. I must apologize. I neglected to mention that this report was from November 2, 1922, as reported by the AP and published in The Washington Post – 94 years ago.
This must have been caused by the Model T Ford’s emissions or possibly from horse and cattle flatulence? That article in turn was based on information relayed by the American consul in Norway to the U.S. State Department in October 1922 and published in the Monthly Weather Review:[pdf-embedder url=”https://commonsenseevaluation.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/mwr-050-11-0589a.pdf”]

A woman captured a wild horse attacking a gator at Paynes Prairie State Park in Florida, just south of Gainesville.
Krystal M. Berry said on Facebook she was “still shaking” after witnessing the skirmish between the two animals.
Horse attacking a gator at Paynes Prairie. I’m still shaking.
Also: I did contact the reserve to check on the horse and gator. There were no clear signs of distress / bleeding when we left the site.
