Ripley

I provided this golden retriever with toe nail trim and all-over brushing today. Ripley is a real sweetie, and stoic. She is keeping her eye on her master, anxious to go.

I’ve had a very quiet day today, and I don’t mind a bit.

I stayed up too late last night trying to make a guinea pig photo gallery and “helpful links”, of all things, to share with a friend. As well, doing such a thing provides “back up” for pictures, whether of pets or “more important” images.

Yesterday evening in Chat, I argued vehemently with a fellow about Global Warming. He is saying that there is “no such thing”. Now, I am not a scientist, but the evidence is clear to me. I recommended the guy watch Al Gore’s documentary An Inconvenient Truth for convincing presentations about climate change and related matters.

It is beyond me why some people spend a great deal of time REFUTING the ominous signs of the destruction of our world and our species (and all species), when there ARE things that each of us can do to make a difference. Gary and I do not live as “green” as we could, but we are doing many things that are environmentally sound; it just puzzles me why folks would argue AGAINST environmental protection or living things.

    It puzzles me also. I’d like for future generations to have a home…and all the chances we have now.
    Conservation, not blind consumption without any thought of consequences….

    And THEN when some POEPLE won’t even acknowledge that there IS consequences to actions…it’s totally baffling.

    For every Action, there is an equal Reaction.
