Earth Hour?

So Al,
How'd earth hour go? Also did it have an effect? Was anyone measuring this? Will we see a ripple of reduce carbon emissions or something like that? Shadow and I tried to go for a walk for the hour but it was cold so we only made it 15 minutes. Then we went back inside and I read by candle light and Shadow hid from the candle. My complex did not participate as far as I can tell. Was earth hour just a silly bunch of hype? Tell me.

fingers crossed

Dear Al Gore,

I know you care about the environment. But you obviously must not care enough about the enviroment, because if you did, if you cared just a little bit, you would thwap some heads over at B & S and tell them to send me an invite. Now why don't you show your love for the earth and go to Cali and do that right now? I won't tell that it wasn't your idea.

Thanks a bunch!

It's a Latin Conspiracy!

Dear Al Gore,

Did you know that your name is latin for coldness? Is that a coincidence (or as my grandfather would say, a coinkidinkle), or did you change your name when you first realized that the climate was changing? It's quite handy for the nobel prize winner, for a powerpoint thinly disguised as a documentary no less, to have a name related to the weather. Storm Field and Dallas Raines were already taken and were perhaps a bit too obvious, so I bet your Harvard nerdiness broke through that calm demeanor and suggested that you take a name that would make other nerds who took latin in high school proud. If that is the case, bravo. Very subtle, very smart.

Cheers,
Cara (latin for dear, spanish for face; which do you think i prefer?)
