Profound Thoughts

As a general disclaimer let me begin by saying that I don't normally want to murder anything or anybody. House flies, Gnats and Mosquitoes are the exception. I blame it on my Asperger's Syndrome which leaves me very shaken by certain sounds and tones.

There's lots of debate on the oil spill of April 2010 and two distinct political sides are trading arrows, so if I make this introduction any longer than this, I'll loose half my audience after the first sentence.

Still, I had to reflect on reasons for using oil that I just don't think are good ones any more:

Well, Micheal Jackson died last week, and I don't want to speak too badly about him, but I do want to rant and rave about the media circus that followed. An interesting article was posted at CNN about how the death of Michael Jackson nearly brought the internet to it's knees. Twitter went down. Micheal Jackson's fan site slowed to a crawl. CNN traffic was up six-fold.

Many who know me often get a dose of my 'tread lightly and enjoy life' philosophy. I generally hate working for other people, no mater what it is, so I try any way possible to be efficient in my life.

My main motivation is to save money, but lessening the impact on our environment and resources is always an added plus.
