I was talking with my sister today and she was telling me about the connections between 'the food shortage' and 'the oil shortage'. Apparently, it all goes 'round in one horrifically eternal circle.

So, I was totally depressed, wondering if we've actually hit earth's carrying capacity. How will we survive as a species.

Well, turns out, things are quite as desperate as I imagined.

Oh, they're bad. And, we should all be doing our part to conserve. Reduce, reuse, recycle, and for crying out loud, rinse out the shampoo bottle and throw it in the recycling bin!! It's not that hard.

Okay, that last part was for my little sister who seems to find it an insurmountable task.

The point is...
I read this article on msn today. Here's for everyone who's completely overwhelmed by our energy crises, fuel and sustenance.

Just ignore the 'men' designation.

Oh, and happy belated Mother's Day to all you hot mamas out there. Especially mine. :D U Rok!!!
