Measles outbreak in Samoa has left 32 dead to date, most of them kids.

But it’s vaccines that are dangerous right anti-vaxxers??

Bastards!

I wonder what Margaret Mead would say about her Island paradise now.

If I leave my fridge door open overnight, will the whole house be 4 degrees by the morning?

The temperature will be the same in the room and the fridge as predicted.
The 4 degrees is off by thirty is the only thing.

No, it's likely to be a good deal warmer.  The fridge motor will run constantly, eventually overheating and setting fire to those clumps of dust that have been accumulating around the motor for years.  This will in turn ignite the old envelopes, Christmas cards and empty crisp packets that have fallen behind the fridge and that you neglected to clean up.

The resulting fire will quickly spread throughout the kitchen and the rest of the house, soon reaching all those cans of ether you use to process your heroin.  This will cause an explosion which will set fire to the rest of the neighbourhood.  Having survived the fire thanks to your flame-retardant jimjams, you will be brought up on charges of arson, since your carelessness has contributed to the ongoing wildfire problem (on a bright note, all the evidence of your heroin lab was destroyed in the explosion, so...yay).

After a lengthy prison sentence, you are released. However, your notoriety has caused you to be shunned by all right-thinking people.  You are forced to wander the countryside with only your gumboots, your sequined codpiece and your faithful wombat companion ('Zack').  In a twist of remarkably cruel irony, a biopic made about you will result in cinemas all over Australia being burnt to the ground by outraged film-goers.

So...shut the fridge.

So you’re saying I should sneak in and leave Iggy’s fridge door open, steal his heroin, and rescue Zack?

It isn't my place to tell you what to do.  But...yes.

Alrighty then.

I’m coming, Zack.

(Never thought I’d ever say that!)

And Zach never thought he'd hear it.
