As you can tell, things have changed around here. Since there’s a global warming crisis going on worldwide, I’ve decided that sprignaturemoves.com must go green. There’s only one earth and we all need to do our part. Not lip service like John Travolta, but for real.

So what does that mean for you, Faithful Reader?

Well, you’ve got to make some lifestyle decisions. Think of this as a fresh slap in the face. You know you need to do the right thing. Here’s how to get off on the right foot:

1. One sheet of toilet paper is all you get. You can stand a little grossness for the sake of the planet can’t you?
2. You’ve got to go carbon neutral, too. That means you need to plant a tree for every sheet of paper you use. That includes your one sheet of toilet paper.
3. Your bike is your new best friend. You now have to ride it to work everyday instead of driving that gas guzzling heap.
4. Did I mention that you have to make all of your own clothes out of hemp? Yeah, those sweat-shops in China that churn out your designer clothes don’t care about harmful emissions.
5. You have to build a rain garden. Not only do they look nice, but you can drink the water from the barrel, too. You’ll get used to that timberline shingle taste after a while. Live in an apartment? No excuse. Make it happen.
6. This is a big one: Think like a squirrel. Oh yeah, gather food, bury it in various safe places in the summer and whip it out when things get chilly. It’s OK if you forget where you put some of it, just dig around and gnaw until your find something.

I’d like to hear your “going green” tips. Click the comment link above and tell us about your green self.

After reading this book it really made me wonder why some of his claims haven’t been bantered about in the mainstream media and in Washington.   There’s so many details in the book and with Sada’s firsthand interactions with Saddam, Chemical Ali, Tariq Aziz, Uday and Qusay, it’d be crazy not to give him and his book significant credibility.

Here’s some of the details:

• Saddam had a plan to use chemical weapons on Israel
• Nearly all of the weapons of mass destruction were transferred into Syria in modified commercial airliners
• Saddam hired Chinese scientists to develop nuclear weapons for him
• The scope of the Oil-for-Food scandal ridiculously huge
• The biggest U.S. mistake in dealing with Iraq was pulling the troops out after the first Gulf War.

It’s a miracle to me that this guy made it out of Iraq alive.

Whatever.

Travolta owns 5 airplanes including a Boeing 707 and says that everyone should “do their bit” to fight _Global _Warming

Ummm. Yeah.
