Glacier fox: Animal becomes latest to freeze solid in Scandinavia's lakes, following fish and moose
The grisly find was made recently by 26-year-old Jeffer Sandström, who was hesitant himself as to whether skating on a lake in Jönköping was a good idea.
The Local.
poor thing....
He said, “Global Warming my Ass.”
Firefox has frozen...
Poor critter. I don’t think this is what Monty Python had in mind when they suggest we “see the løveli lakes and mani interesting furry animals.”
Including the Majestic Møøse...
OK. I feel for the fox, but here is the mole:

One of the best songs ever recorded!
The foxes’ last thoughts: Damn you Al Gore!
I watched that video, heard the song so many were raving about a few weeks ago; ‘What Does The Fox Say?’. My conclusion is that has to be one of the most annoying songs I have ever heard in my life, in any language! Different strokes for different folks, right?
Did we pass a gas station?
No, but the fox did, squeeze him again,
maybe he’ll pasa another one....
He kilt the bar what done kilt him.
I was waiting for that - didn't expect it to be the first post!
Someday I hope to see a pic of the Obama-phone woman stuck in a lake.
It's called dark or black humor. NO one wants to freeze or drown. Doctors, ambulance drivers, police, morticians, and people who are on FR joke about death. We do that to relieve the discomfort and stress of picturing ourselves or loved ones in that very situation.
Have you ever heard of people laughing hysterically upon seeing a dead miner being brought to the surface when they realized it was not their loved one?
Have you ever been to an Irish wake? After a sad start, people eventually get around to joking about old Jimmy (pronounced "Shimmy") wanting to die because he heard the whiskey in heaven was much better that that on earth. And it its free. And there's old Jimmy in the coffin smilin' away.
Did you hear what the fox frozen in the ice said to his friends? "Hey, y'all, hold muh beer and I'll show you how to walk on thin ice."
3cm = 1.18”
5cm = 1.96”
He was stupid to try and very lucky that he lived.
“The incident is not the first time an animal has frozen solid in Scandinavian ice....”
I’m quite certain that this has only been happening for millions of years.
Grisly? The writer is too far removed from their Viking heritage.
It appears to me the healthiest of these foxes are the ones with less OJ in their glasses. OJ obviously is good for you!
Polish wakes are much sadder; we have a different viewpoint when it comes to beverage service in the afterlife: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_tVkkoeVmc
Cleveland area boys! Chardon, snow capital of Ohio!
Even though I’m Irish, I grew up watching local Frankie Yankovic on the TV since my dad loved to polka. Irish Dad was definitely Polish when it came to beer. He drank a lot of it here! My job was to answer the call when he said, “Get me another,” as he listened to the Indians lose on the radio.
IN the Gulag Archipelago, Solzhenitsyn writes about one group of residents of a Gulag who come across a frozen river filled with per-historic fish.
The men were so hungry, they dug up the river, chipped off the ice and ate the fish whole.
It can happen and stay happened for a long time
The big problem is that there’s been too much “dark or black humor” going on on FR at least for my taste.
Sometimes things just aren’t funny “regular OR dark humor”, and I reserve the right to say something about it.
