August 13, 2040 Washington, D.C. Former Vice President, Nobel Prize Recipient, and Warmist Al Gore was today laid to rest in a sparsely attended ceremony in his hometown of Carthage Tennessee which suffered from a 34th consecutive day of sub-freezing Summer temperatures. Tragically the elder Gore froze to death alone in his SUV which had left the road and plowed into a snow bank 3 nights before being discovered by a National Guard Snow Crew. Former President Barack Obama was granted a 24 hour furlough by President Bristol Palin to attend the service. The cost of secure transportation from and back to his cell in the Treason Camp at Guantanamo Bay Prison was paid by his second wife Lady Gaga Obama.
