Happy New Year

Wow, that's awesome. Talk about bringing in the new year with a bang. I hope it happens before February. I hate February.

On the plus side, those of us who survive can stop worrying about global warming...

Now I can hacksaw the catalytic converter off my car with a clear conscience.

Be prepared for another wave of volcano-related disaster movies.

I think his insinuation is that if the aftermath of the eruption is gonna be an ice age, then trying to prevent global warming is really pointless.

And yeah, those of you who survive don't have to worry about global warming. That starvation thing would have me worried though.

I know, but I was just thinking that it'd be more likely to cause acid rain.

Well, when the shockwave from the eruption rips half the continent apart, and I'm dying from the ash and toxic fumes thrown into the atmosphere, I'll take comfort in the fact that Cymro is concerned about acid rain.
