We’ve all been naughty over the past century, and we’re finally getting coal (emissions) this Christmas.

Know what the Weather Warlocks over at The National Weather Service were doing while you were taking a two-hour outdoor "working lunch" Thursday? They were issuing an El Niño watch.

Last week you scoffed with your sarcastic "boo hoos" and reminded us it's still technically spring when we said 2009 is shaping up to be The Year Without a Summer. Are those of you on the East Coast convinced yet?

No, it's not you. The weather in New York City has been a foggy, soggy, cloudy, sunless slog through what is supposed to be a beautiful, joyous June. Blame it on fucking El Niño.
