Good ol’ Al. He’s gonna get you to admit that WE’RE ALL GONNA DIE FROM GLOBAL WARMING if it’s the second-to-last thing he does. The last thing being the consumption of three entire pepperoni pizzas a la mode.
Here he goes again:
Al Gore returned to his alma mater to help Harvard University launch its new greenhouse gas reduction effort.
The former vice president and 1969 Harvard graduate, told a campus audience on Wednesday that it’s time to find ways to make better use of knowledge to save the global environment.
Riffing off Harvard’s Latin motto of “truth,” he said the challenge is to find truth in the climate crisis and “use that as a basis of a new concept of who we are.”
We already know who you are, Al. Who are we ? We are the people who realize that global temps are actually going down. We are the people who laugh at the thought of you donning a Hawaiian shirt, cargo shorts, and flip-flops to stand in a snowstorm, sheepishly muttering, “Hot enough f-f-for ya, f-f-f-folks?” We are the people who know you’re as right about this as you were about heavy metal in the ’80s:
“…yowmp.”
Are we done pretending this guy matters anymore? Gore, I mean, not Dee Snider. Well, either one.

Our favorite do-badder Heather Mills has reportedly blown nearly half of her £24-million divorce settlement in just seven months.
The Sun reports that she’s spent £10-million — or about $16-million in USD — on totally frivolous crap, including an outdoor (!!) swimming pool at her home in chilly East Sussex, a luxury condo in New York that is being renovated, first-class plane tickets to expensive vacation destinations, and fees for the well-used publicist and legal teams that she’s evidently decided to pay finally. All the while complaining:
A source said: “Heather’s been moaning her money isn’t going as far as she thought, but she’s just burning her way through it.
“She reckons she has spent £10million since the divorce and still doesn’t have a finished house to live in. She hasn’t changed. In her eyes the whole world is against her.”
Boo freakin’ hoo. Other than the vegan food she donated to kids in the Bronx, none of that has gone to charity as repeatedly sworn. It makes this quote from two years ago all the more delicious:
Mills has now gone one further by vowing that the vast majority of any money she receives in a divorce settlement will go straight to Adopt-A-Minefield. The settlement is expected to range from £40m to £200m ($72m-$360m).
A spokesperson for Mills, who has already donated most of the money she has received in recent years to the charity, said, “The way she sees it is that there is no point the money sitting in a bank account gathering dust, the money has to be working.
“The more acres of minefield she can clear, the happier she will be.”
Clearly she’s more interested in setting mines than clearing them.
