Earth Day

The Other One · Subject: Earth Day Thu Apr 23, 2009 7:02 am

Did anyone else celebrate Earth Day? I did several things to honor the most useless pseudo-holiday of them all:

1. Left all the lights on in the house all day.

2. Left my car running while I was at the gym.

3. Took a total of four extra-long showers and sat in the hot tub for longer than usual.

4. Ran the dishwasher with just a few dishes in it, during the heat of the day, with three packets of soap.

5. It got warm outside, so I drank extra plastic bottles of water.

I bought some rare wood that was grown in an unregulated environment.

I cut it using large power tools when hand tools would have been sufficient.

I then decided I didn't like the router bit that I had chosen to finish the project so I bought more rare lumber.

Had to run the air conditioner to keep the tools cool.

There's nothing like the sound of a chainsaw in the morning.

I threw recyclables in the trash, smoked many a cigarette where non smokers might enjoy the scent in the breeze, drove uptown just for a cup of coffee, and had several episodes of gas for my co-workers to savor. Smile

I could one-up all of you with what I did on Wednesday... but I refuse to self-incriminate.

But the irreversible damage that you do to the environment by riding your moped to the grocery store is morally wrong and should be taxed heavily.

Pay up, bitch!
