Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

  I grilled a whole slab of ribs, not those tasteless baby back ribs @$5 a pound.  Used Sweet Baby Ray's sauce.  Oh, so good.   :biggrin:

Rib eyes on Saturday and cedar plank salmon yesterday!

(CNN) -- A raging, fast-moving Colorado wildfire continued to grow Sunday, prompting evacuations as some 20,000 acres burned, authorities said.
First measured at two acres early Saturday morning, High Park fire has grown exponentially in the time since -- including more than doubling in size over the course of Sunday. . .


Still growing. . .

It's hot out there. But this time, it's more than idle watercooler talk, according to weather scientists.
At the same time the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's National Climatic Data Center has released a report noting that this spring in the United States has been the warmest since record-keeping began in 1895, a group of scientists has published a paper in the journal Nature warning that the planet is approaching a critical tipping point because of climate and other factors.
Rampant population growth and changes to the environment caused by humans, including the burning of fossil fuels and the conversion of nearly 43% of the planet's land to farms or cities, threaten to cause an abrupt and unpredictable shift in the global ecosystem, 22 scientists from five countries said in their paper.
In its report issued Thursday, the climate data center said the average U.S. temperature between March and May was 57.1 degrees, 5.2 degrees above the long-term average from 1901 to 2000.
While May was only the second-warmest on record, it was still in the top third for monthly average temperatures, marking 12 consecutive months with temperatures in that range, said Jake Crouch, a NOAA climate scientist.
"For that to happen 12 times in a row in a random circumstance is one in 540,000," he said.
Globally, NOAA reported in May that the average temperature in April was 1.17 degrees warmer than the average from the past century, making it the fifth-warmest April since at least 1880.
It was the 326th consecutive month that global temperatures exceeded the 20th-century average, NOAA said.

(CNN) -- A sprawling wildfire in northern Colorado nearly doubled in size again Monday, spewing plumes of smoke and forcing the evacuation of thousands.
The fire grew to 36,930 acres, authorities said Monday. It had been estimated at 20,000 acres Sunday night.. . .

Which, if it keeps doubling daily as it has since Saturday when it started, means it will exceed 1 million acres by Friday. . .

i tried that chicken with the beer can once.  had trouble getting the can in the chicken.  so my kids said, try turning the chicken around.  well with that sweet move, the can fit, the chicken sat, and all was well.
