Check it out, y’all. Free wildflower seeds, get ’em while they’re hot. Forget the boring homogeneity of an all-grass yard, amaze your neighbors with these here free wildflowers.
Too often people yap on and on about “being green”, but can’t really back it up. I say it’s time to put your money where your mouth is. Don’t talk about it, be about it.
Welp, I took about five minutes out of my oh-so-hectic (unemployed for a week) schedule and picked up some trash from a creek behind my house. It took less time than that to fill up a bucket with a bunch of litter. I was flabbergasted.
I found all this in about 5 minutes. I was shocked that people had wastefully tossed this into the creek; the Sprite still tasted great, yet it had been littered.
Someone had even thrown a whole chair into the creek. I wrenched it out with the fury of a hundred bald eagles.
So everybody, I implore you, take just five minutes and pick up some litter. If everyone chips in a wee bit, it will make a big difference, and global warming will be reversed and dodos will come back to life.
Forilla though, if you do decide to help out and pick up some litter, and for some reason you feel it’s picture-worthy, let me know, and I’ll put up your pictures and salute you.
You know those lil’ paper cups of latte that you get from coffee shops? Think about how many people get one of those lattes every day. How much water does that take?
Welp, it turns out that to make each cup o’ latte, it takes 200 liters of water. That’s over 50 gallons of water for each latte!! Hot dang!
Besides just the water you see, lots of water is also used for the coffee production, milk, disposable cup and sleeve, lid, and sugar. Check out this here video from WWF for more information…

Dang, here I was thinking that the Smart car was tiny — the P50 is much smaller! So small, in fact, that the Guiness Book of World Records recognizes it as the smallest car ever produced.
The P50 has a single-cylinder 49cc engine and only three wheels… technically, it’s not even a car (they classified it as a motorcycle). Only about 100 were made, so if you get a chance to see one, you go and you take that chance.
To learn more about this awesome automotive oddity, please place your mouse cursor over THIS and mash the button.
Step right up and enter for the chance to win a de-luxe 2009 Smart Fortwo. These bad boys get 33 city/41 highway miles to the gallon — not too shab, although for how tiny they are, you’d think they’d get better gas mileage than that.
But anyhoo, click THIS HERE LINK for the chance to win your very own Smart Fortwo. Apparently, you can enter once per day, so that’s what I’ve been doing. The contest is only open until Halloween this year (dang, such a long time). Just imagine, not only will you be saving on gas (and cutting down air pollution) while you drive, you’ll be able to park in some tiny parking spaces. Can’t beat that with a stick.
