  1. Plants do not have central nervous systems. Hence, no feelings.
  2. I hate when people argue that plants have feelings too. Like this one: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/12/22/science/22angi.html?hp
  3. An Owner’s Grief: How to Say Goodbye to Pets http://bit.ly/8bxOkx I'm somewhere b/n Anger and Depression now, with lapses into Guilt.

  5. @JoAnnRoss Hey! I recognize that location...been there many times, but never on the solstice.
  6. I will never take electricity for granted again.
  7. Light! Just came on! A temp fix only, sadly.
  8. Still no electricity. Workers can't get their trucks down our icy road. We're the only ones out. Getting colder...
  9. @msfour Read that to husband; he said white fi probably.
  10. Candlelight is nice.
  11. No elecricity. Weird fault on the line. Limited modem access. They're gonna have to dig. It's getting cold...

  13. @carpathia16 That sounds about right--10k for tanning bed tax. If only we'd taxed cigarettes that high when we first knew of the danger.
  14. @JoAnnRoss Same here. I take 50 mg 2x a week. But better than melanoma. (Plus, sun is impossible to get here in high doses in winter.)
  15. Here's a better link: http://www.politico.com/livepulse/1209/Botax_out_tanning_tax_in.html?showall
  16. Yay! My pet cause has been included in the HCR bill: a tax on tanning beds. http://bit.ly/5uunLz Long live white people!
  17. Christmas Just Ain't Christmas: http://whatdoiknow.typepad.com/what_do_i_know/2009/12/christmas-just-aint-christmas.html
  18. I don't see any reason to decorate the tree, do you? Looks great with just lights.
  19. This is why I'm a pessimist on climate change mediation: http://bit.ly/5nfWmc
  20. My expectations for Copenhagen were zero. And that's pretty much what emerged. So, not disappointed.
