    Earth Day

    Just curious if anyone here does anything special on Earth Day?

    you know things like walking to work or commuting, using less waste, strangle a politician, clean up a river/beach, feed some baby birds in an abandoned nest by regurtitating partially digested worms into their mouths, hang out with some hippies, plant some trees...

    things like that.

    ill probably walk to work just for the heck of it.
    For whoso comes amongst many shall one day find that no one man is by so far the mightiest of all.

    I flipped our compost on Sunday

    I've been trying to compost a recyclable plastic cup and fork. Both are those corn starch things. Neither has decomposed at all and it's been over a year in the compost.

    I'm eager to try composting one of those new Sun Chip bags.

    Im going to shoot and eat a snail darter, then for the evenings festivities Im going to burn a pile of tires while running my air conditioning full blast. Earth Day what a stupid event, interesting though it was founded to combat GLOBAL COOLING, gibbering idiots.

    I'll be sure to take the V8 powered Stang out for a little drive and some tire burning tonight.

    My my, aren't we ornery?

    I'm pretty green in general so Earth Day is ongoing for me. Perhaps it's a Buddhist thing, but I don't really celebrate it as distinct. I'm always torn this time of year about what to celebrate. Earth Day is so close to World Tai Chi Day. This year, I think I'm going to celebrate the Cherry Blossom Festival.

    You eat Big Macs?

    I am not generally known for cowardice, but when faced with a situation where I have to eat Mc Donald's burgers, then I am not ashamed to run for the hills.....


    I mean, I'd rather eat the beaver......

    You can probably find some good nutrients in them thar hills.

    It is my stated goal in life to be the oldest American who has never eaten at a McDonald's.

    My wife tells me I have probably reached my goal but I doubt it. I don't think they have McD's in Shugnak, Egegik or Shaktoolik yet.

    the world has a surplus of self centered sh1twh0res, so anyone who extends compassion to a stranger with sincerity is alright in my book. also people who fondle road kill. those guys is ok too. GunnedDownAtrocity

    Hey congratulations.

    And for that reason you will probably live a longer and healthier life than most Americans.

    They will probably get there too as long as there are people naive enough to think that government regulators would not let anything harmful get into their food chain.

    Other harmful chemicals include, Aspartame, Fluoride and Monosodium glutomate.
