Lights Out

A group against climate change sent me an email today encouraging everyone to TURN OUT THEIR LIGHTS on Thursday, February 1 from 7:55 pm to 8 pm local time, to, you know, help save the planet. (The night after is Imbolc, of course, when you celebrate the return of the light.)

Sounds good. I'm in. Pass it on.

... Though once again I will ask why Canadians are so much more serious about global warming than Floridians are. Most of our major cities are above sea level. You're on a sand bar, babies.

And yet, Canadians flock to the south every year like it's a frikkin' migration...

Harvey! Pull the car over. It's Canuck season again. Hurry,hurry!

Watch out! You almost hit that little one. Look kids, he dropped his bacon. Somebody get the camera...that is just too cute!

Hey now, cut us some slack, you mad pulp bastard. Do you know what it's like living through winter here? Rough. Depressing. You'd begrudge us a little sun to rejuvenate? Big meanie.

Probably getting all those people to use CFLs or LED bulbs would be a better way to save the planet than to turn off the lights for 5 min.
