In 1912, the Presidenta of Mexico went on a political visit to England...While there, he tasted a condiment that he’d never had before...He fell in love with it...He ordered 1,000 cases of this condiment to be shipped to mexico because he wanted his people to enjoy the flavorful taste...
The cases were loaded onto the Titanic for the trip across the sea...Well, you know what happened to the Titanic...
The presidenta was so disappointed, he declared a national holiday in remembrance...Thus “Sinko de Mayo” was formed...
NOW, you know the REST of the story....
Preheat a sauna you don’t have the time to use.
A biologist,Dr. David Eitner at the University of Tennessee, found the Snail Darter to only living in the Little Tennessee River and effectively stopped the building of the Tellico Dam...In 1975, the Snail Darter was placed on the Endangered Species List. Construction of the dam was halted for 4 years...Then, the tiny fish was found in several other rivers and streams in East Tennessee and the dam was completed in 1979...
respiration produces co2.
In humans, yes...
At night, when plants “breathe” in CO2, they expel CO2...
At day, when plants “breathe” in CO2, due to photosynthesis, they expel O2 (oxygen)
So, at night, plants put out the same amount of CO2 that they take in....
“At night, when plants “breathe” in CO2, they expel CO2...”
you get an ‘F’.
I just looked at another site...You’re right...
My bad...They do produce CO2 at night from oxygen they take in...
I was wrong...
An out of town employee was at the office today and was reading the various trash cans trying to decide where to throw his coffee cup. I said “pick any one, they probably all got he same place anyway.”
Then, when I thought about it, I think I was right. There’s only one dumpster in the parking garage.
I also filled up my F-150 and wasted tons of water washing the pollen off it.
We’ll keep some lights burning tonight.
Reduce the size government and quit spending. And a little truthful education would help.
I ran the chainsaw and poisoned some locust tree stumps this afternoon.
“They do produce CO2 at night from oxygen they take in...”
just as in animals respiration occurs 24 hours a day.
respiration generates the life energy. in plants the generate their carbohydrates for respiration.
we eat the plant for their carbohydrates.
I just filled up my 1999 GMC Suburban’s 42 gallon gas tank.
Wish I’d seen this earlier; Earth Day’s almost over. I’ll try to send my husband out to buy some REAL gasoline, for his old V8 vehicles, fire up the grill and the chimeria, use even MORE paper towels than I usually do, and send my new grandson several boxes of pampers. We don’t own any cows, and it’s probably too late to have an effect today, but we could eat the leftover baked beans from yesterday, and some more devilled eggs. We’d like to do our part, whenever possible.
Maybe my husband will retell the story about the time he beat a giant mud turtle to a pulp, when he discovered it had taken a big bite out of every one of the fish on his stringer. Haha! A twofer! Sierra Club AND PETA!
Well, you could follow the originators footsteps and kill your girlfriend/wife and stuff her in a suitcase, leave, then let someone else discover the body when it begins to stink, claim you know nothing and continue on the lecture circuit while everyone celebrates you and the day you invented
That’s the spirit. Matzah is pretty flatulo-genic, too. Have a few pieces of the hand-made round kind, and you’ll be farting like a trombone, thereby honoring both Earth Day AND Passover, and being both environmentally conscientious AND multicultural. If you have cows, give them some, too.
I’m fond of my wife. Could I kill a perfect stranger and leave the suitcase in an alley?
I HARDLY think that would memorialize the TRUE spirit of the day! No. You have to reproduce the crime EXACTLY as the earth day founder! You can always get another wife. Now stop being a slacker, and get to work! How long will it take you to chase her down? (Perhaps this is unorthodox, but to redeem yourself, you could dismember her with a chainsaw -— I’m feeling magnanimous! Or is it just gas...)
Boy, you purists. I promise to do it for Earth Day next year, if someone will volunteer to marry me right after. Women only, and preferably after child-bearing years.
Pull my finger after a bowl of chili and beans.
