As almost all of you likely know, Earth Hour was last night. As far as I know, we were supposed to shut off all of our lights and stuff for one hour to show our devotion toward helping the environment or something like that. There have also been a few articles talking about the widespread success of Earth Hour...

...but I'm not seeing it. First up, the primary focus of Earth Hur is global warming, and I see no reason to turn off lights for something that doesnt exist. Secondly, I hate Al Gore with a passion, and turning lights off would support him indirectly. Thats something I cant do. Dont get me wrong, I support the environment and helping it, but I cant help Al Gore no matter what the cause.

So partly out of spite, my good friend (who shall remain nameless) thought up the idea of turning all of his lights ON for Earth Hour. He strung Christmas lights all around his house and front yard, and turned on everything he possibly could before he left to see the school play (Les Miserables,AMAZING performance btw) and had his neighbor turn on his lights as well. We then went out to his car, turned it on, and revved up the engine a few times to emit as much CO2 as possible during the 10 minute intermission of the play.

How I love Earth Hour This will now become my new tradition for years to come.
