what's the opposite of green...

Ashlee!

So, two days in a row I have walked outside and wondered how on earth it can be SO cold in May. You know it got down into the 40s last night here in Oklahoma. There is obviously only one simple answer....GLOBAL WARMING. I cannot even begin to imagine what the temperature would be if it weren't for the phenomenon, we'd probably be freezing to death. Praise global warming, thanks for keeping us above freezing in the summer!

Save Florida

Well, it's been awhile. I'm at work now waiting for something to do. I've been busy this morning and that's a nice change of pace. There isn't too much to say today, I was thinking of sharing with you my idea on water conservation. It seems that many people in the world think that we should conserve our water by turning it off while brushing our teeth. These folks also spout of "facts" about the water we would save if we shortened our showers by one minute every day. My question is how many of these people are the same people that are crying about global warming, many I assume are one in the same. The problem I find in this is if the world is warming up at an unnatural rate (which is obviously why we had the ice storms in the mid-west this year) and all of our polar ice caps are melting as a result, then isn't the world going to be flooded by all of this extra water? Isn't Florida my beloved home going to become no more than fabled land much like Atlantis? So, if we are in fact suffering from global warming (which I suspect we are not) then isn't it my duty to try and use as much melting polar ice cap water as I possibly can? I believe it is. So, in order to do my duties as not only an American citizen but also as a member of my global community I vow to leave the water on while I brush my teeth, and to lengthen my showers by two minutes everyday. I vow to run the dishwasher when it is half empty and wash my clothes in smaller loads. I hope you too will join me on my quest to SAVE FLORIDA FROM THE FLOODS!!!

what a life

Well that past two week has been full, birth and death. The good news is I got to spend a bunch of time with Scott and that's nice I miss him. But, I guess life is the way it's supposed to be for now. He informed me this past week that he is waiting to find his life plan written on a tablet somewhere. I told him I hope the tablet falls out of the sky and HITS him in the head. But, I guess that's not very nice after all. While in Tulsa I bought a book on tape. The 100 people who are screwing up America. I'm in the mid sixties and so far I'm liking it. I laugh a little bit and spend most of the time with my mouth open in shock of these people who really ARE screwing up America. One of my favorites was 95... Courtney Love....hoe. Then he proceeds to 94 this is pretty funny since he explains pretty in depth why he thinks each person is screwing up America but she only needed one word. Funny to me anyway.
