Oy, mates! And that's why you need Geeko Ant Insurance! [Video]
I'm not sure your reference to GlobWarmers makes sense in this context. If we had the conditions the world was in then, it would be catastrophic for current coastal civilization the world over. That isn't going to happen suddenly, of course; that's just how the glaciers melt, the oceans rise (despite Obama), and currents change, between ice ages. I can't really relate this to the AnthroGenClimeChange theory because... well, simply because there's nothing to the AnthroGen part.
Walked out the back door yestermorn, gazed around in the morning light, and a large doe and I startled each other. I made friendly noises and sat down on the sidewalk.
"avoiding nature in all its slimy, horny and/or carnivorous glory."
Yeah, uh, then you probably want to avoid this video about Trypophobia (h/t Patty at Weird Universe). It'll make you forget all about those cannibalistic copulating slugs!
You're welcome.
If you look closely, the tat on that dog's butt says "kick me."
I hear my doggeh calling
I hear my kitteh cry
Time to go and sing my critters
Sweet lullabye
I said I hear my doggeh calling

Heh. Most unexpectedly, back for a moment.
Hey, Webworker..... is the little sick girl you mentioned before your own girl?? How is she? How is teh kitteh?
Is this a general dog thread or does it have to be on-topic about large Danes?
I had more of the picture of an accident comparable to accidents with jacuzzi drains or escalators!
First H2O, now CO2!
Water and air aren't good for you!
47 Pew survey of sharks:
88% will circle in a frenzy when there is chum/blood in the water.
Chipmunks? Only 9%
At first, it's just foam and seagulls. Then, around 0:30, you can really start to see them swarming around.
Hummingbirds. This guy. Mitochondria. Electrons.
Chihuahuas can be loyal, tough little characters.
Egad! After so many months away on another planet, having caught up on the main articles, I've now returned to wasting my life reading (well, skimming, anyway) Curmudgeonly comments!

Arlo and Janis is so intellectual and deep and stuff.
I'm trying to figure how to build the fence for an ostrich farm.
Mrs. Webworker got to rescue a baby bun from a cat this month.
We cannot possibly be perfectly prepared for every possible contingency. But we can be ready.
Unwind a wire coat hanger and use the pigtail end as a corkscrew.
We live in an area where people (loosely defined) decide, "this is far enough out of town to dump our unwanted pet." If they survive the road, most seem to find their way to us.
"Drewno sent signature items to the Obamas’ table: tuna tartare cones, squares of suckling pig, tandoori Arctic char. The first couple make a point of having those items added to the bill." We cannot by this presume that B Hussein or the Mrs actually partook of the suckling pig.

Here's a beautiful story, linked from Drudge, and is now wide-spread, but in case you didn't see it, a family adopts the canine companion of the fallen Marine son.
Congo.... A small airliner crashed into a house, killing a British pilot and 19 others after a crocodile smuggled into the aircraft in a sports bag escaped and started a panic.... lone survivor... "The terrified air hostess hurried towards the cockpit, followed by the passengers." The plane was then sent off-balance "despite the desperate efforts of the pilot...." crocodile survived the crash, only to be dispatched with a blow from a machete....
Handsome and proud.
I was thinking that we might relax, but…
