I’d love to have her to my house for dinner. I could show her a thing or two about healthy eating from the garden.

No ‘toxic sludge’ on my plate, please! :)

Coal mining? Are you crazy?? Didn't you hear about the mine explosion in W VA?!
Offshore oil? Are you crazy?? Didn't you hear about the disaster in the Gulf?!
Nuclear power? Are you crazy?? Didn't you hear about the strontium-90 in VT?!

It's wind energy, man. Nothing but wind energy. The whole bloomin' country is going to be dependent on windmills.

This is amazing! What? 48 hours after they start to break ground on the first Nuclear Power Plant in 30 + years.

I can’t wait for things to change and for the sake of the libs it better change at the ballot box. They wont like the other option.

That's not true. I took a tour of some BIG HOLES in January for two planned AP-1000's. That site is supposedly number 2 in the US, of course China is way ahead from what I remember.

That’s actually pretty cool. Nice setting for a house. Bet the fishin’ is good right off your front lawn, LOL!

Does the little windmill in front run the TV dish? My husband would DEMAND that, LOL!
