Should we go to red alert? It means changing the bulb.
"Nice jacket!"
"Why, thank you Will.I.Am. Here is my tailor's email."
"...and here are the spectacular results from our Psychology Department's studies of Product Placement..."
"We thought something like.... Hidin' da decline.....Dat ain't no crime......... but of course, you're the expert............."
...and Will, as you can see, that is an example of hypocricy.
I see that Holly's lost a lot of weight, but Cat is looking remarkably well.
And just look at this website! Sartorial Tips for Climate Change Professors
"Oxford?? What da fu-- they said I gonna meet da CRU!"
My go at it:
"Oh dear Milesy, that graph looks very crooked"
"and if we do this....... We can make Michael Manns arms wave about in such a funny way!...."
"Does my bum look big in this?"
For U.S. readers, replace 'bum' with 'ass'.
" Hmmm ...do I tell the guy that his shoes are covered in bulls*it"
"Here is my new design for a green helicopter, solar panels in the roof optional."
"Sick bro! But is the extention cord long enough?"
"Amazing! Look, I also ordered a fancy top with Moloch emblazoned on the arm for the next Bohemian Grove 'Cremation of Care' shindig"
Look Will its my new presentation - "There is no evidence that Climategate ever happen"
" Dude, ur Gig will raise global temp by ,002 degree in 2087 according to this Principia, 1687 "
Communicating climate change? Most def.
"Hmmm...pink might not suit the Oxford Lodge's dress code... how about black and red instead?"
"Look, no matter how much we lie about CAGW, polls show the public still isn't convinced!"
Is that a loaded dice in your pocketbook, or are you just pleased to communicate at me?
"Hello Tosh, Gotta Toshiba"
Wow. Only seven bicycles. How many for an A380.
'You might get away with it if you offset the emissions from the chopper with emission permits. Fortunately, at current prices, your four tonnes will only set you back about £15. You should have plenty left over from your honorarium to do something about those threads!'
I took this picture flying in. Look at all those CO2 belching cars. We have to do something.

Look, this is what we have planned for the little people.

As you can see from this graph, our data is even mor of a load of shiy than your music.
'Hey mate, look at this Bishop Hill webshite, don't believe a word of what you read mate and I'll ignore what they say about you in the G, it's all in the greater good innit?'
Look Cat, Holly says this broken hockey stick has the power to hide my decline.
"And if you click here, you put in any numbers you like.."
Sorry you think Climateprediction crashed your computer Will, but I can't fix it. I'm just in sales.
"See here? If you don't stop flying on choppers, then in one hundred years there ain't gonna be no one left to listen to you rapping no more."
"I'm thinking of hiding the decline with rap music - how would I do that?"
It's a climatology program, ask it questions, and it'll run in the background forever!
Will.i.am : " that hockeystick is dope"
"I'm a scientist you know - look, here I am on the Oxford website"
music in background from "My Humps"
My hump, my hump, my hump, my lovely little lumps (Check it out)
She's got me spendin'.
(Oh) Spendin' all your money on me and spendin' time on me
She's got me spendin'.
So, Will, with your permission, we would like to make this the official climate change theme song....
" From this computer model we can predict with certainty that in 2035 genetically modified crops will produce black eyed peas that can eat children"
Your carbon footprint. Lookhere! more a carbon mountain

Hit any key to continue... Which one is the 'ANY" key ?
And this is the sinking ship the CRU is from.
Do you know how to work Excel?
I like the Mister-Choos, 10.13 am, offerings.
And the Chinook has two rotors to keep you cool.
See. If I put in rap music, I still get 2degC rise.
And here's what my left arm was like before the accident.
OK Will. Excel is great! Mind you,Phil Jones doesn't know how to use it.
Will.i.am. "You is havin me on man"
Myles. " It's true, I read it in a newspaper"
Nice vid, man. How'd you get that brown line an inch below da hairline?
Myles Allen : ... and see, if I move the cursor over Portsmouth, the Climate Model tells me that there will be 37 mm of rain fall between 9:32am and 4:15pm on 7th May 2075 ...
"So, what yo sayin' man... dis 'disappearing ice' ain't gonna affect my diamond collection?"

"As you can see Will, we can bend it like Beckham. It's totally screwed"
