We don’t celebrate the birthday of communists

Is it today? If so, celebrating by working all day, then will go to the kindergarten “spring concert” of my granddaughter after work, then will eat something at a pizza place with her, her parents, and sister.
After that I will go home, and let the cat out, hope he comes back before too late.
I guess I have nothing planned related “Earth Day”, right?
With 58 candles. It’s my birthday. April 22, 1959.
Mow the lawn with a good ol’ gasoline powered lawn mower, take a drive in the country, maybe have a barbeque, burn some leaves...
Emptying my full ashtray of menthol stubbs out of the car window as I drive down the freeway at 80mph. //Just joking!//
Urf day?
Maybe by thanking God that He made it like the proverbial Timex watch. Takes a licking and keeps on ticking.
Lets raise some redneck bonfires to that
I’ll keep my lights on in the whole house.
I don’t celebrate it. Kind of like Kwanzaa in this house.
This year as in past years, I decided to remain on it, and go about life.
I will walk across the street to my neighbor’s house, whose daughter is having a baby shower to celebrate the addition of carbon footprints on the earth.
P.S. I was 15 when I gave an address at my high school in Yokohama on the first Earth Day, 48 years ago. I vaguely remember it had all of the environmentalist spin. Then I grew up, which is one reason I am here and will not be at an Earth Day rally.
I’ve got a few trees out back that need to come down. Good a time as any. lol
Burning tires in my back yard.
By feeding vast herds of cows. camels, buffalo, antelope etc mega amounts of beans and watching the fun as the left runs around with their hair on fire screaming about the end of the world
The first Earth Day took place April 22, 1970. The centennial of Lenin’s birth took place April 22, 1970.
oh yeah..I forgot how involved Ira Einhorn was in this mess.
Please do not do as the co-founder of Earth Day, Ira Einhorn, did: kill his estranged girlfriend and then compost her.
Won’t do anything different. Don’t believe in symbolic acts that accomplish nothing.
If they were serious, they’d take down the windmills that chop birds up by the thousands. But no. They don’t care about the environment. All they care about is forcing us to pay money which they then send to the “poor.”
Use the used motor oil for weed control along your fences and around you fence post. If you have cattle, set a fence post in the pasture and put a gunny sack over it. Pour the oil on that and you won’t have to buy fly spray for your cows as they will rub themselves on it.

Maybe I’ll blow the carbon out of my cylinders (aka an Italian tune-up).
I’m going to turn on all of my 100 watt light bulbs at the same time, and then light my kerosene hurricane lamps. Next, I will drive my guzzling pickup truck to Publix, pick up some hamburger meat and a big bag of charcoal. I’ll have a great char-broiled meal along with some beer in aluminum cans. Those cans will be exempted from the recycling bin. It will be a glorious day!
Fire up my smoker, cook some meat.
