A new study by scientists has suggested that zombie attacks might increase if the current projections of global warming are realized. “If the earth gets warmer, it means longer springs, summers, and falls, and shorter winters,” said John Carpenter-Romero, Ph.D., a zombie-ologist who co-authored the study. “And shorter winters means more time for the undead to prey on the populace.”
Dr. Harrister, the other co-author, and head of Zombie Robotics at Wayward Robot, Inc., explained that cold winters typically stalled the walking dead. “It is well known that zombies can’t operate in cold weather. It freezes their brains.”
The pair calculated a 32.782412% increase in zombie attacks if CO2 increased to twice its pre-industrial rate. “Clearly, this is a very troubling result,” said Dr. Harrister, “If we don’t do something soon, the streets will be filled with blood.”
The only one I can remember is,
Mary had a little lamb
Some lobster and some prunes
A glass of milk a piece of pie
and then some macaroons
The rest is lost to me except for the last two lines.
And when they carried Mary out
Her face was white as snow
Good job with the lemur! Shannon loves the lemur and tries to wash it.

Last Eastern Standard Post?
Nope, I’m still here.
Tom had a really large boy fall on him at the Scouts meeting tonight - bad news with his skiing injury. If he’s in agony tomorrow morning, I’ll take him to the emergency clinic, only 5 minutes away. If he’s feeling better, I’ll make him an appointment with our GP for Wednesday morning.
Don't you get cat scans free?
On a side note: I'd suggest to Tom that he learn how to make antigravity devices. His nemesis has already picked him out.
It’s one of those beaurocratic muddles. Of course, Shannon will lick him for free, but the emergency clinic costs $50. The GP only costs $15, but the time savings (even though I’m not paid by the hour) is worth the difference.
The only advantage of the GP is that she can write him a note to join Weight Watchers.
Weight Watchers? Lol, is he that bad? Tom seems to be getting the bad breaks lately.
He needs to lose about 15 lbs. (A significant percentage of his total weight.) The advantage of being a WW member is that he would get prizes!
Tom and I are the only ones in our family who really struggle with our weight.
LAST EST post for me.
Last PST for me - -and after some in the morning... I don’t know when, until my return from India. Was looking forward to an easy evening but found a couple more bad bills slipped past the lagrislature’s first cutoff date so I had to go aftern them. Still have to pack the backpack, but them am ready to travel. See y’all in the morning...
Last Post?
*The West Coast Lamp is officially extinguished for the night*
Good morning. When our medical practice wakes up, I’ll make Tom an appointment for first thing tomorrow. I guess I’ll have to put him to bed for the rest of today, to avoid catastrophe!
I don’t think I could avoid catastrophe even if I stayed in bed.
Blue state Maryland votes today.
You have my sympathies!
Morning, all! In the office, wrapping up a few things, then off to the airport in about 4 hours..
*yawn*
:stretch:
Morning. I think. At least the sun is out, and for now, there is no wind.
Morning here, for a little longer. 41 and cloudy, might rain later. I’m going to take Bill to his logic class in about half an hour, and then have lunch with a friend from church.
I was going to go to the store, but the nausea is too bad, today, so I’ll just pretend I’m with you on your outing. Especially the lunch part! LOL!
