I have children whom I love dearly.  I want to pass along good habits and ideals to them.  There is one area that is starting to drive me absolutely insane and that is this green movement.  I am all for “doing your part to help the environment” but I see this turning into a circus or a joke the more it gathers momentum.  Let me give you an example.  Where I work the people I do support for print a...

  First, let me say that this is not one of those hate posts. Secondly, I want to assure anyone reading this that I am indeed and intelligent person and that I do not intentionally set about to incite or induce hatred.Martin Luther King Day to me is a TRUE conundrum, this year, in the year of Obama especially.
