colony collapse disorder

morford on colony collapse disorder...

>>See, the sweet, sticky ontological truth is nature
doesn't really give a damn whether our species lives or dies.
It is very possible that we are not nearly as essential or significant as we like to believe.>>

indeed not.

and a quote comes to  mind of course, only i can't recall the sayer of it - nature is amoral and persistent.

birds have more sense than people - they don't foul their own nests, do they?

so many species have more sense, and will be around long after we are gone
unless we destroy things so badly that nothing survives but rocks and dead dirt and dead water.

and now i am off to breathe some outside air for a few minutes.

cold like winter today - the forecasters were wrong about the week to come
as they are about half the time - what a job, where you can be wrong half the time
and still get paid.

 or even worse, wrong all the time like GWB, and still get to play king.

swiffer time

THIS is my favorite cleaning tool since I got one a few months ago.

If you have a lot of hardwood, vinyl and tile floors,
it works better than a broom and is a lot easier to just whip out
every other day for a few minutes and zip over the floors.

It will even pick up crumbs off low pile carpeting
and then you can postpone the heavy vacuuming for days and days longer -
meaning more time update your blog! ;-)

See how quickly I can switch gears from thinking about
The End of the World
to cleaning my humble little flat? :)

My other favorite tool is also a swiffer -
the kind with the long handle and the fluffy dusting puffs.

Have been using that for years and years and it really speeds things up -
thereby once again leaving more time for surfing the interweb.
