  • Should We Just Stay Put To Save The Environment?

    I found an article titled, “Frozen salmon over fresh?  Why, it’s better for the planet that way.”  Shipping fresh fish around the globe for a meal?  global warming?  Have we gone mad? “We said, ‘Eat wild salmon,’” said Astrid Scholz, vice president of knowledge systems at Ecotrust and one of the [...]

  • Much More Than London Fog

    We’ve had our share of flooding in many parts of the U.S. the past several years.  But flooding in Britain is unusual.  Especially the month’s worth of rain in 24 hours in Cumbria last Friday - something they say is a once in 300 year occurrence -     [...]

  • Wisconsin Mapless

     No - you won’t find maps drawn from Wisconsin Senators.  Actually, you’ll find hardly any maps were submitted.  I congratulate the Senators who took the time to complete the task.  They reflect just a bit of personality, and yes, some knowledge of their home states.  I found them very interesting. To help kick [...]

    It seems too soon.  But then again, in the world of viruses - it seems anything goes. The H1N! influenza has mutated.  Maybe we shouldn’t worry - but I can’t help worry about those who are defenseless, like my brand new grandson who at two months old is too young for [...]

  • Not Your Kid’s Kaleidoscope

    Is there any child who doesn’t love looking through the tube of a kaleidoscope, turning the tube around and seeing the magical patterns and colors take shape?  There are just some childhood toys that should be passed from generation to generation.

  • Government Roadblocks - What About The Kids?

    from USA Today - During the Racine outbreak, the scene at Starbuck was so striking that photos of a hallway full of sick kids memorialize the day in the school yearbook. In the foreground sit trash barrels; the school ran out of bags to catch the vomit. Much about the following days [...]

    You may have seen the Invisible Man before (oxymoron?), but it’s worth another look.  It’s the gallery of the artist Liu Bolin.  Pure genius.

  • Al Gore Finally President? Really?

    It figures Al Gore would be called the “President of the Planet” while giving a global warming speech in Palm Beach County (a.k.a. home of the confused butterfly ballot voters).  The Goracle spoke to a green crowd of about 800 while 200 Florida Tea Party attendees protested outside.  There were no apologies [...]

  • Maybe Shirley Temple Could Help Out President Obama

    Since President Obama’s current Chief of Protocol can’t seem to be able to guide him along since he’s been in office… and he obviously isn’t able to figure it out for himself… perhaps he can call on the advice of a former Chief of Protocol who may be able to set him [...]

  • Brazil’s Ignorance Is Curbed By Enforcement And Economy

    Finally!  The horrific deforestation of Brazil’s Amazon rainforests has been reduced by a whopping 45%!  It would be thrilling to say the population came to a realization that the devastation to their country has taken its toll and enough is enough.  But federal law did the trick, along with a failing [...]

    Maybe the first step to finding out if an illegal immigrant is in fact an illegal immigrant is to do a simple thing - just ask.  And who would be the easiest suspects to ask?  How about those already in custody for committing crimes? from the Oregonian/Clakamas County News - “After 9/11, ICE stepped up its [...]

  • Gibbs…The Rip Van Winkle Of The Obama Administration

    Robert Gibbs must have been asleep during the Bush administration.  I try to keep a distance from comparisons between the left and the right.  Between Clinton and Bush.  Between Bush and Obama.  They’ve always been a big turn off for me.  They are just fact.  They’re out there.  Either the sides are [...]

    Back in the sixties it was all about the hair, the car, the music and the dance. This past Halloween, a young girl came to my door with a costume consisting of just a head full of huge hair rollers.  It brought back memories of my two sisters in the sixties.  They are five [...]

    Oh, we’ve done it before in the USA.  It’s nothing new.  But China?  China manipulates the weather on a pretty regular basis, and for many different reasons.  Sometimes to cleanse the air of pollution by making it rain, or by preventing it from raining if the time isn’t right, or [...]

    How do you get more moms and dads to believe a sugary beverage is okay for their child, or even them to drink?  Could you buddy up with physicians?  Maybe.
