Zombie attacks might increase due to global warming, study shows

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.”

Good morning! 40’s and cloudy at my casa. Vlad had a puddle this morning, and the snake shed her skin.

Morning! Jet lag rears its ugly head. After two mornings of waking "on schedule" I'm up way too early.

Oh well...

I agree. And it's always when coming home. But there are much worse things in life than jet lag... *\:-)

Yah. It started shortly before I left India...

Almsot time to wake LoM and get ready for church. We have a couple of new arrivals I haven't seen yet -- born in the past few weeks.

I've had connection problems for the past couple of days.

Next time, can I choose water-boarding instead?

Anyway, the problem could return at any moment, probably when the connection gets cold and wet.

It's strange, when someone hands me a cold beer, my communication rate goes way up.

My connection tends to have the same problem. I even went so far as to move the entire phone line junction box into my attic (if you could call it that), such that there are no exposed connections on the exterior of the house. Still have problems sometimes, and of course my internet provider always says the problems on my end. I still don’t understand how one minute I can have a perfect connection, and the next nothing...with no changes to the line. GGGGRRRRRRR.....
