@coluber2001,

@edgarblythe,
It's our new program that warns customers that a storm is going to be coming our way. You may stay and drink your soup and enjoy your meal, or we can box it for you to take home.

As a beverage to accompany monsieur's starter may I recommend a storm in a teacup?

I think when I accidentally discovered the similar-sounding words, bouillon and tourbillon, I realized that this was the genesis of the image in the cartoon, that of a whirlwind juxtaposed with a bowl of broth. I say accident, because I have no knowledge of the French language other than liking the way it sounds.

My naïve proimmigration opponent would like you to think there are actual positive aspects of El Nino!

(If anyone can help me edit this down to a little more concise caption for submission ... that would be quite appreciated. I'll dwell on it whilst at work.)
Edit once again: Never mind. I already submitted a shorter version of the above caption.
