Lists-- cause aint nothing wrong with brevity

I'm getting eaten by mosquitoes as we speak. Not trying to dwell at this comp too long. here's what you need to know....

 In the last week I've...

  • Attended a lecture on global warming and what our responsible response to it should be
  • Interviewed local dairy farmer Cal Snow and son Aaron. Such great people! We should get the football team to make cheese, it's a workout
  • Got a couple books out of the library about transportation.
  • Started reading the Transition Handbook, about turning cities into zero carbon emitters. It's possible and almost as easy as eating fritters....
  • Set up a possible informal tour of a Dacha. Still not really sure what it is--kind of like a commune, and they produce their own food make their straw-bale houses. The lady is really cool. check out the blog http://dachaproject.com/blog/ 
  • Contacted Chris about possible problems with movie files. Told me to try on my own first. Haven't tried... think it'll work....
  • Contacted Tim Logue. Have yet to set up a time
  • Planned out a week of eating local.
  • Drove a lot. " I heard that. Wish I hadn't heard that. But I heard that"

As you can see I do a lot of nothing. But at least I'm working towards something.

I am pretty busy now as 8 games have been canceled and rescheduled for the following weeks, (make that 9 it's pouring outside my cozy abode right now),. But still...
In the next two weeks I should do these things:

  • Return Fast Food Nation. Great Book.
  • Go to garden meeting at Mrs. Clark's house at 6:30 on April 26. Make some food for it if I can
  • Go to the Economics of Happiness movie at Cinemapolis on April 27
  • Go to other Fleff Movies
  • talk to Time Logue
  • try out I movie files
  • visit Dacha
  • cross fingers
  • Post on going to the farm
  • post on peak oil
  • post on failure
  • prepare for local eating
  • mom interview me. Just DO IT


I'm working hard these days people. ohhhhh ya
