"Today's column comes to you directly from Uncle Johnny's "Mother Nature Strikes Back" files.

Yes, it's true, ladies and gentlemen, Mother Nature has had it up to HERE with us. She is sick and tired of always having to clean up after us, sick and tired of our constant back-talk, and totally sick and tired of "Survivor."

She's had it with our snide attitude, our lack of respect and our messy rooms.

She is one pissed-off mama, people. And like the old commercials used to say, "It's not nice to mess with Mother Nature..." (Or something like that).

Oh yeah, she has many motherly ways of getting back at you too, above and beyond the usual guilt trips and the old coming-to-live-with-you-when-you're-grown-up-and-have-a-house-of-your-own thing.

No, no ... these old revenge tactics pale in comparison to what seems to be the latest in her arsenal of Weapons of Mass Dysfunction."
