MORE FRIVOLITY: SNOWMEN AND GLOBAL WARMING
January 28th, 2006 · Posted in Humor ·
I came across this after I posted my Friday Frivolity on the UN and Willy Wonka – and could not resist an "extra" Saturday Frivolity this week.
The Onion reports that snow men around the world are gathering to protest global warming. Here’s how it is being reported:
According to organizers of marches in Washington, Atlanta, Montreal, Berlin, London, Reykjavik, and Moscow, global warming is the primary cause of the steep reduction in the snowman population throughout the Northern Hemisphere. Demonstrators worldwide called on their governments to take more aggressive steps to reduce the effects of climate change.
Here’s more on the Washington, DC march:
Speakers at the Washington rally included a Chicago snowwoman who had lost three snowchildren to warm temperatures, the Rev. Jesse Jackson, and Larry Chilly, formerly a 6-foot-tall, triple-segmented Muncie, IN snowman, who had been reduced to a slushy head.
As serious a problem as global warming is, I am glad for sites like The Onion that help us keep our sense of humor!
Go on over and read the whole article – and have a great Saturday!
Until next time — Shalom! Bill
