It's another steamy day on this Caribbean island named Paris. Its been hot now for about 10 years. The days of cold weather are far behind us and it just has to be Global Warming.
So I am proposing a movement to promote Global Freezing. And when you launch a wacko ecological movement you must have a specific date when the world can rally around your cries: a Global Freezing Day.
The North and South poles are thawing guys and we need to stop it now! So, like all movements we need a symbol and I was thinking that we need to find a symbol that recreates the idea of a glacier. So I thought a pail full of ice would do the trick just fine.
But an empty pail of ice seems so barren, and we need something to symbolize bubbling human activity, the effervescence of life etc., and something that will look a bit like one of the poles. So it came to me that a bottle of bubbly would be a perfect choice.
So I am proposing we have a Global Freezing Day on Friday October 14. All LL chapters need to organize a meeting with as many pails as full as possible to show the world we are truly serious, mobilized and otherwise "engages" in the struggle to save our poles from thawing away.
I look forward to hearing of your plans for "Global Freezing Day!"
Cheers
Do your part for Global Freezing

Careful Michael -- the radical environmentalists, many of whom are people of temperance, may consider champagne bubbles as likely to widen the hole in the ozone layer as the herds of flatulent beef cattle we raise (radical environmentalists also tend to be vegetarians).

I fear that I still constitute the Australian chapter in its entirety. Notwithstanding the Melburnian gentleman I noticed in the Dressing Room. All the same, I'm quite happy to, as The Bard would put it, 'crush a cup' in honour of global freezing. Or two or three.
I'm not sure I could down an entire magnum myself, so I may dip in to some of the chilled reds I've been enjoying of late - Tarrango and Dolcetto/Syrah (ie Shiraz).
There is always that close relative of the ice bucket - the cocktail shaker (in the bottom part of which I will stir my Martini)...
Another fine idea, Mr. Alden.
