I'm almost all green!
I just did it. I just signed up for APS's Green Choice Rate program. 100% of my electricity will now be provided by geothermal, solar and wind. I only have to pay $.01 more per Kwh used. This equates to my bill being about $25 more in the hot months and $5 more during the cool months. I'm almost all green. Things to do before I am completely green: 1. Find even more ways to conserve at home 2. Recycle 3. build electric car (still in dream phase) 4. Garden more, much much more |

Door-to-Door religion
Attempting to push religion on me while standing on my door step is probably the most offensive thing one could do to me. They may as well start the conversation with, "Hi, everything you do is wrong, bye." I think I would be less offended if they would just slap me and walk away. Current Mood:  irritated |

Monarchs part deux
These pictures were taken by Dawn and Lisa. Unfortunately, I was not able to take more because Dawn and I had an emergency. Fortunately, I have a couple more chrysalids that will not emerge until this weekend. I fully intend to get video.  ( Read more... ) |

Monarchs....wings not robes
A few weeks ago my children told me that there were some weird caterpillars on the bush next to our front door. After some research, I determined that they were Monarch butterflies and the bush was a milkweed. A few days later a small chrysalis appeared. The chrysalis looked like a jade vase with little gems on it. I have missed every transitions these insects have made. This morning I noticed that one of the chrysalids had turned black and was about to emerge. I cut off the branch and brought it to work with me. The branch is now "binder clipped" to a sago just outside my office. I am not going to miss this one. The camera battery is charging. |

Cheese and Rice!
Will somebody explain to me why "door-to-door salesman" is still a career option. |

Hmm, strange
I have been involved in a whole lot of non-everyday-situations. |

Look Ma, no Hands!
The reason I never learned to play baseball was because of a very brutal "dog on leash tied to pickup truck bumber while dad drives with son to Target to get bat, ball and glove" event. um...oh...yes, of course...Pomeranian, and Lobo. |

PSA
The outside of helmets are hard...the insides are soft. Being struck on the head by the outside of a helmet=hurt, the kind of hurt that makes you want to rub that one spot vigorously. Wife, please take note. |

I have a dream
I took a client's dog to a breedist veterinarian today. Not only are they breedists, but they also engage in breedial profiling. So...the vet tech opens the exam room...takes one look at this chow/rottweiler mix(looks like a full blooded rott) and then promptly closes the door. A few minutes later, the door opens, the lab tech leans in, asks,"does he trust you?", to which I answer "I think so", she then tosses me a muzzle and says "here, put this on him". Damn breedists. |

![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) az2tx is making monkey meat! Yummy My house smells of monkey meat. I will be very disappointed if this scent is not included in the "Top 100 Smells of Heaven." Even more disappointed if Heaven doesn't have this very important list. Or list's of any sort. Or even exists. What do you think the other 99 smells would be? |

What did you expect?
Do you think Libby said,"I beg your pardon" to the president. No, seriously, if I were president, I would be pardoning people left and right, and yes pun intended. Rightfully so, a lot of people would be very pissed at me. When asked why... I would just annoyingly repeat....constitution....constitution.. ..constitution....until they went away. Yeah, I know....never gonna be president. |

WTF?
My yellow lab, Hank, jumped on the couch and sat down next to me. In my deepest and most stern voice said,"doooooownnnnnn", as in,"get your ass off my couch". Hank then laid down and placed his head on my leg. Can dogs be smart asses? |
