AoS: “An Inconvenient Energy Bill”

Monday, February 26th, 2007

I think this is one of my favorite post titles from Ace of Spades: An Inconvenient Energy Bill. It made me crack up, probably too much. Oh, and the content was interesting too. Everyone’s favorite environmentalist, Al Gore, apparently uses 20 times more energy than the average American at his estate in […]

Oprah and The Secret

Sunday, February 25th, 2007

Last week I drove down to Mount Vernon to catch Snodfest, a night of music to raise money for Theo’s Work an non-prof supporting humanitarian efforts in southern Haiti. There were three bands that I wanted to see: Corbin Watkins, The Tallest Building in the World, and The Lonely Forest.
I had seen Corbin twice […]
