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.”

I’ll be waiting to see the “finished” product. I bet it’s great! How many bedrooms? (I forgot!)

Tsk Tsk.....time to think about moving to Hawaii, Darks.
Flowers in your hair would be a good look for you! :)

5. We are converting one to Zon’s studio and one to my Computer/reloading room. 2 full bath. The upstairs family room is 20’x24’.

That was almost romantic, Darks!

[Grizzled Bear]

Very nice. But it needs more Cow Bell.

[derllak]

Awww, where’d you go Darks? Are you sitting in the corner sulking because I said you’d look good with flowers in your hair? Kinda ruins your reputation as an evil, merciless zombie, doesn’t it? I’m so sorry.....:)

[derllak]

Lol! Agreed!

'Face, how are you doing? Over the nasties?

Counting down the hours to my next trip -- to Ismaning, DE (just outside Munich).

[NicknamedBob]

I like it.

I’m partial to trees, anyway.

[sionnsar]

Good night, all.

I'll be on tomorrow, maybe even for Moving Day if it occurs, but after that... who knows? Too much travel.

[Tax-chick]

Good morning. Where’s my Global Warming?

[Monkey Face]

Your global warming is getting ready to hit Puget Sound, and leave a trail of hot stuff about 6” deep all across the northern tier of states.

:oþ

Plenty of Globull Warming here...but right now it’s heavily overcast and promises to be until the afternoon.

[sionnsar]

Looking at the day’s schedule, we’re going for an early move today.

[sionnsar]
