The Mississippi River is at the lowest levels recorded. In July, The Army Corp of Engineers had to quickly devise a means to stop the salt water intrusion from the Gulf that could destroy the river.
Months later, the river is still at low levels. This is reducing the amount of grain and other crops that can be sent by barge. Many farmers have lost $25,000 to $50,000 this season due to this inability to ship their crops.
One slight variance in the planet, in this case high ocean water and low river water, can create economic disaster and even famine. Alarming situations, like my example, are occurring around the world. This is not humorous . Unless, you can survive without food and water. If you can, then laugh until your "extraordinary" belly aches.
