Climate Change... please don't butcher me...

| | |

Ok... please don't butcher me for this post, as I'm going to post a few ideas that are contrary to the "accepted" idea of global warming, and I'd like to point out that I am not sure about what effects humans have had or having on the enviornment, or whether global warming, global cooling, or a giant volcano is going to "end the world" (human world) as we know it. The following is an opinion based on loose facts and an a general opinion, which can be easily changed by facts.

Minimum Security Comics

| | | |

Hey all,

Some of you might be interested in these comics by Stephanie McMillan.  I'm not much into comics but I really like these.

About Minimum Security: "The adorable yet furious characters of Minimum Security challenge the destruction of our planet, the loss of civil rights and increasing police-state atmosphere, and today's lifestyle which is characterized by the distraction of consumerism, shallow infotainment, and constant anxiety about survival. The title comes from a prisoner who had just been released. Outside, he looked around and noted: “I’m still not free; I’m just in minimum security.”

Al Gore for President?

After having pressed the limits of copyright by lifting a huge quote from Schmookler's book in my last post, I've made the pleasant discovery that Schmookler is very conversationally engaged with all comers at his blog. And I've joined in a debate with him about Al Gore.

I was watching Green: the New Red, White and Blue on the Discovery Channel last night, and it occurred to me that global warming has now become a political problem, and:

Head in the Sand

Things have gotten pretty bad in the US of A. Once a shining beacon of freedom and opportunity, we have now become the nexus point of a worldwide battle of ideologies. Religious or Secular. Conservative or Progressive. Security or Liberty. War or Peace. Individuality or Community.
