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.”

It also kills worms. And catz don’t like it, but dogz do.
OJ is optional.

Yowch.

Reminds me of this exchange...
Complaint:
“I don’t understand why the phone system won’t work for meeee!”

Response:
“Perhaps if you didn’t sit on the phone after answering it.”

I didn’t know vodka would repel catz. Maybe we should try it on the orchids!

Vodka is a fine remedy for stinky feet and makes a decent mouthwash.

It's so effective as a mouthwash it makes other people's breath more pleasant.

Catz won’t touch alcohol, tobacco or chocolate. I don’t know what nicotine would do to orchids, but it might help to break a cigarette and sprinkle some tobacco in the pots...catz would stay away

Our Agnes loved cigarettes. Fortunately, we rarely had smokers around, or she’d have killed herself chewing the butts.

It might have been the charcoal/ash residue. Catz will eat charcoal if it’s handy.

Vets use charcoal liquid to neutralize lots of maladies that catz and dogs get by ingesting something they shouldn’t have.

It helps to settle their stomachs, and cleans their systems as it is processed.

You don't use Gray Goose. You use the cheap stuff. Hmmm I wonder if the french boycott is off since they are nominal allies again. They do make good vodka.

...And if you can remember spitting it out, it couldn't be that good anyway.
