Our Daily Dead

Charlie Siekley and Charles Keeling make up the list for today. It is said of the former that he was the grandfather beach volleyball - a game that increases the temperature of participants and fans alike.

The latter is the father of the Keeling Curve which is an oscillating line that measures the carbon dioxide in our atmosphere - a device that some insist measures the agent responsible for the increase in global temperatures.

Most folks outside of certain overdressing cultures would likely agree on the appeal of beach volleyball - both men’s and women’s of course. There seems to be vastly less agreement on global warming - yes it is, no its not, get rid of your SUV, its my own Private Idaho I’ll do what I want, humanity faces a serious survival issue here, God and Buddha say it will be OK, and so on, and so on, and so on. We suppose its time to change out our beloved hairspray for gel.

By the way the volleyball Charlie made rounds in Manhatten Beach and the deep thinking Charles hunkered down around La Jolla. Two superb beachy towns if you need a fine dose of Cali Dreamin’.

Note to ODDSelf: Bozone (n.): The substance surrounding stupid people that stops bright
ideas from penetrating. The bozone layer, unfortunately, shows little sign of breaking down in the near future.
