Global cooling is really coming through for us this summer, at least for those of us on the USA’s east coast. Low 80’s and no humidity in August—it couldn’t be better! Yet again Al Gore is proven the sage. Previously I advocated reducing my global foot print by shortening words, which would therefore reduce the excretion of carbon dioxide when talking. Now, I am seriously reconsidering my view. This change of heart is do to the most excellent outcome (global cooling) from a world that has continually increased, and shows no sign of slowing, its carbon dioxide output. For those listening I am now advocating leaving your car on even when you don’t need to use it (24 hours a day if possible).
Do you have any suggestions of other things we can do to increase our carbon footprint?

Both major political parties in America are phony. Recently their phoniness has been on full display. First the Republicans and their phony outrage over moveon.org’s ad depicting a General as betraying the United States when he gave a semi-positive report on troop surge in Iraq. Now comes the Democrat phony outrage over something Rush Limbaugh said about people posing as soldiers telling lies, he called them “Phony Soldiers”.
Yes our major political parties love to be outraged by meaningless things the other side does. Why? Because it gets their own side rilled up, behind them, ready to “stand up”, and most important pledge lots of money to their phony campaigns.
In my previous post, I suggested something these politicians could get done. That is after all what real politicians are supposed to do, get things done. Not waste time and money writing letters of condemnation. They’re all phony! Let’s do away with this two party system and get some real movers and shakers in office. I’m all in favor of the “None of the Above” box on the ballet.

I am a proponent of efficiency and like Al Gore, think we should, as humans, reduce our “carbon footprint”. So I propose that we shorten words in an effort to speak less and reduce the amount of carbon-dioxide that we emit every day.
First word that we should shorten is “disgruntled”, does this word really need the negative prefix “dis”? Have you every heard someone being “gruntled”? No. Well there is my point why do we need to put a prefix on a word never used positively?
Next word would be “inept”, I don’t think I have met any ept people but I sure have met a few inept people. Let’s just shorten this word and remove the prefix “in.”
There are many other words like these: overwhelmed, disdain , unflappable, etc.
Please be sure to leave any words you can think of in the comments of this post. If you could, post them soon, because I plan on taking this in a bill to congress. Maybe congress could get *something* done this decade.

Here he comes mister Lego hair with a stupendous plan to make everyone healthy. Not unlike his promise that Christopher Reeve would still be alive if he was in charge of stem cell research, John Edwards is promising in his campaign to be the next president with the best hair and to provide health care for everyone. The best part about his proposal is mandatory check ups. Well I for one can’t wait for my nanny government to require me to go to the doctors. It was a tough enough job for my mother to get me to go.
