Top 5 Signs of Global Warming

As storms rage across the South and droughts continue to plague the West, scientists are wondering if they have underestimated the negative effects of global warming. Here are some other recent signs that global warming might actually be worse than we thought. If you've seen any other signs, do leave your comment to spread the word.



Philip's list:

1. Cows now give pre-pasteurized milk.

2. Snow geese now flying to Canada for the winter.

3. Coppertone's new ad features an adorable puppy pulling down the swimsuit of a young girl whose hair has burst into flames.

4. All of America's energy needs now supplied by a single solar panel.

5. "Iceland" now referred to just as "Land."


Douglas's list:

1. Lake Superior now only crossable by camel.

2. Anti-wrinkle creams now marketed to elementary students.

3. Napa Valley now selling more raisins than wine.

4. Niagara Falls completely clogged with tumbleweed.

5. Siberia rapidly becoming world's newest resort hotspot.


And now, here's the Doggie Bag. These are the meat products that we decided to leave out of today's hot dog. Mmm...mmm...good!



1. Old people have actually begun farting dust.

2. Santa Claus installing window units in elf workshop.

3. Hottest new product of the year? SPF 12,000 sunscreen.

4. Let’s just say that the French Riviera is a bit “gamier” than usual.

Iceland is now being called "Land" is the winner in my book.

I'd like to add, "Upon visiting his relatives in Washington DC, Satan was overheard saying, 'Man, it IS hotter than Hell up here.'"

Shawn said...

I wouldn't mind vacationing in "Land".

Chris - Nice one. :-)

Etta - Have you met Chris?

Shawn - You and me both.

Dizz - Let me get you started: "After rising seas covered the entire continent of Australia, ______________ happened."

Vic - Couldn't agree more.

Nooter - Ooh... steam pee. And I think you may be confusing a handful of words at the end of a blog post with an actual pet meal. I blame Douglas because I was the first to reply.

"Iceland" now referred to just as "land" - brilliant.

My addition: In an effort to make their way back into the transportation market, Chrysler is now selling hot air balloons.
