Can Arnold save California…as Mr. Freeze??

Damn, those California wildfires are really messed up.  But what does Governor Arnold say?

Excerpt from CNN.com:

California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger declared a state of emergency in seven counties.

“The wind is our number one enemy right now,” he told a late morning news conference.

I knew it!  It’s a mythical battle of the elements, and Arnold is stepping up to the challenge to defeat The Wind!  This shouldn’t be a problem, considering Arnold’s exploits a decade or so ago as a certain Mr. Freeze.

He’s gonna need his biggest frost gun, but I think we’ll soon find that a puny campfire like this one is no match for a guy in a glowing outfit, especially when he caps off every bout of freezing with an ice-related pun.

Rest easy, California.  You elected a hero.

    How chillingly appropriate (get it, chillingly?). You’ve done it again, Laura, and by “it,” I mean made me laugh.
