i think i'll light a gallon of fueloil on the driveway...Backyard Tire Fire!
I thought it wasn’t until 4/22. Guess I’ll have to fire up both vehicles for an hour and crank up the heat to 80, fire up the clothes dryer, turn on my amps, all the tv’s, radios, cd players and all the lights this evening. CO2 for everybody! Woo Hoo! Keepin’t it warm for mankind. That’s what I’m talking about! (Maybe 4/22 is Earf day.)
I won’t be cooperating. I’m not “into” symbolism.
But the AC is still getting maxed tonight.
(Evil Laugh)
I’ll have full loads of laundry washing and drying.
These “conservation efforts” are thinly veiled attempts to get us to lower our standard of living; they are reminiscent of Imperial Germany’s “days of fasting” during WWI, which were an attempt to deal with their chronic food shortages.
Thanks for the heads up. I’ll make it a point to be on Earth at 8:30 tonight.
Whoop-de-do!! Turn everything on!!
I plan to let my Papillon catch a few squirrels and BBQ them on an open fire during Earth Hour.
Spew some SO2
OMG, it’s Erf Hour. OMG. OMG. OMG. Erf Hour. OMG.
All the lights will be on, will do laundry and dishes, TV’s all on, and plug in the electric guitar and electric mandolin and make heck of a racket. Oh, and the router, air compressor, and Christmas lights.
OMG, OMG, Erf hour.
My Mr. Heater will be celebrating for several hours tonight.
Wish I still had a 2 stroke motorcycle. It would be a blast to do a smokey wheelie past every darkened house.
All 4 AC’s are ready. All 4 47 inch LCD TV’s are ready. Plugged in two 150 watt old fashioned incandescent bulbs on the front porch and back porch. Grill ready. All 5 Computers ready. 2002 V8 Dodge Ram ready to drive around town needlessly.
Funny how the Earth Hour is on the half hour.
Well, it is rather unfortunate that earth hour coincides exactly with the time when I do my annual electrical stress test. I have a 400 amp service here and annually I have to test it to see that it can perform for a solid hour at peak. Even with every electrical appliance on, I have to bring in electrical resistance heaters to make sure that is fully loaded for the test (and if it is warm I just open the windows to avoid overheating).
Darn, “Civilization Hour” is on at the same time. Which to choose...
I have a 69 Dodge Polara with a 4 barrel 383, and an 83 Eldorado! Who can burn more fossil fuels that I? The Polara is 428 feet long, and 3 acres wide, it gets 10 miles to the gallon and that’s hi-test. Top that!
My GF plans to shop at the mall this afternoon. Meaning her car will be driven to at least 5 malls making her carbon footprint a lot bigger. Take that manbearpig!
