I'm a cypher, wrapped in an enigma, smothered in secret sauce. Also, my name is Kev and I own this here website.

Alright, I'm just a guy (though an admittedly awesome one at that -- oh, and humble) who likes to blog. Sarcasm, quick wit and gorilla dust are my tools of the trade. Feel free to browse my blog and follow me. It's okay. I won't call the cops. Click here if you'd like to write a guest blog for SKOS.

Al Gore, meet my foot. Foot, meet Al Gore
January 15, 2010

My frugal heart skipped a beat yesterday when I read my latest utility bill.

$390?!

Last month, it was $220. The month before it was $83. The months before that were all in the $40 to $50 range.

What in the name of Al Gore is going on here?!?

Yes, I’m call you out, Al. My utility bill — thanks to my gas heat usage — has exponentially risen as the temperature has dropped. The past month it’s been absolutely freezing here.

I know, “freezing in December and January…what’s the world coming to?” But you don’t understand. This is Georgia. There hasn’t been a cold December/January in my neck of the woods since 1996. Jacket weather, which lasts approximately three weeks, doesn’t arrive until late February or early March.

But not this year. This year it’s been cold. Ridiculously cold. And I blame Al Gore.

Watch your back, Al. I’m coming for you. I’m going to kick your tail and take your lunch money, which I hope is approximately $390.

Don't have a photo next to your name? Want one? They're called Avatars. No, it has nothing to do with that James Cameron movie. No, I don't know why they're called that. Look, do you want one or not? Gosh, you're difficult.
