Turning on my lights
Don has a good post on the ridiculous Earth Hour ecoterrorism.
By the way, of course, the WWF should award some special prize to the North Korean government, for that government keeps North Koreans not in any meager “Earth Hour,” or even “Earth Day,” but in what WWFers might call “Earth Decades”—very little light ever. This picture of the Korean peninsula speaks volumes—the Dark Ages today; a society keeping its carbon footprint tiny. Of course, in doing so it keeps itself also desperately poor, often even to the point of starvation.
I really like this pic of how the North Koreans keep their lights off all the time.

She’s no whiner
Rarely do I ever comment on the music I listen to, but after all the negative press about Amy Winehouse
Things haven’t been the same since I listened.
She deserved every Grammy she won. I cannot believe she’s written most of her album herself, at her young age.
Calling her a musical genius may be an understatement. Can you imagine if Ray Charles were alive and could duet with her? Both artists hit me the same way.
Kindle: Amazon’s New Wireless Reading Device
Once more, another amazing product
Why is the country so far behind when it comes to wireless? Can the monopoly be broken soon enough?
