| my grandma and i were sitting in my grandpa's garden. and she says, "in the summer, i call this garden the 'melon garden' because there are lots of cucumbers, si gua (chinese vegetable), bitter melons... in the fall, i call this garden the 'fruit garden' because there are peaches, apples, and plums. the rest of the time i call this garden the 'rock garden' because of all the rocks that grandpa dug up and laid out so nicely..." okay, maybe that was funnier in person. | | |

| this drives me crazy. subsidies for Coal
"With both House and Senate Democrats hoping to pass “energy
independence”
bills by mid-July, coal supporters argue that coal-based
fuels are more
American than gasoline and potentially greener than
ethanol."
This is exactly the kind of language politicians use to get Americans to agree with
their ridiculous policies. Why would anyone propose to subsize Coal production
when Global Warming is a real and serious issue? Even without looking at the
global warming issue, coal production is not healthy for the communities surrounding
coal mines or the environment (the sludge/waste from coal production/extraction).
if you're interested, look at what coal companies are doing to west viriginian communities.
look at how close those coal companies are to people's houses. mountain top removal
is literally chopping off the tops of mountain peaks, extracting the coal from it, removing
the impurities from coal, then filling in the valleys with the extra rock (or whatever
material mountains are made of).
ugh-this makes me sick.
