Just thought of another unpleasant aspect of Global Warming

The Blob is still up in the Arctic.

With the warming and the increased temperatures of global warming, The Blob will soon come after us.

And damn! Steve McQueen's dead.

We're doomed!

Speed things up a bit.

The plague didn't make much of a dent this last go 'round so there will need to be reinforcements if Mother Nature is going to win.

It is ironic that CO2 stopped the blob in 1959, and it might bring it back to life today.

but the smoke choking half the country today isn't funny at all.
In Midwest cities like Chicago, it's the equivalent of smoking half a pack of cigarettes per day.
Get real.

The Blob was a freaky movie esp. if you were 10 and under.

The “happy ending” was the Artic would never melt.
