I've done several things actually:
1) I cancelled a work order for the hydrant outside my house to be relocated to my neighbors yard. It would have required energy to move it and to create the new length of pipe.
2) I let my yacht return to the ocean as an artificial reef for coral and fish. I now windsurf to the islands off the coast of Cape Cod.
3) I no longer wave ears of corn out of the windows of my tour bus. It just creates wind resistance and the corn is better off used for ethanol, or even better, for food.
I need to sow some grass seed to fill in the bare spots in my lawn.
I'll sell you some carbon credits, if you've got any guilt you need to assuage
They may need input but I guaran-damn-tee it they do not want mine!
I like that, send it on to the Kerrycouple
Lots of guilt, but not to be assuaged by carbon credits....If the photo is you house, I'd say you have quite few bare spots...
Actually, that's John Edwards America
Here's my input
KISS MY GRITS
Kerry should change the title to This Moron on Earth
...input THIS....!!!
Wow, that's a nice place! Let me guess.... Virginia? Pennsylvania? Ohio?

Edwards Home County's Largest
The 28,200-square-foot home also Orange County's most valuable

The 28,200-square-foot Edwards home in Orange County is expected to be valued at more than $6 million.
RALEIGH Presidential candidate John Edwards and his family recently moved into what county tax officials say is the most valuable home in Orange County. The house, which includes a recreational building attached to the main living quarters, also is probably the largest in the county.
The Edwardses residential property will likely have the highest tax value in the county, Orange County Tax Assessor John Smith told Carolina Journal. He estimated that the tax value will exceed $6 million when the facility is completed.
The rambling structure sits in the middle of a 102-acre estate on Old Greensboro Road west of Chapel Hill. The heavily wooded site and winding driveway ensure that the home is not visible from the road. No Trespassing signs discourage passersby from venturing past the gate.
Don Knight, Orange County building plans examiner, told CJ that, including the recreational building, the Edwardses home would be one of the largest in Orange County.
Knight approved the building plans that showed the Edwards home totaling 28,200 square feet of connected space. The main house is 10,400 square feet and has two garages. The recreation building, a red, barn-like building containing 15,600 square feet, is connected to the house by a closed-in and roofed structure of varying widths and elevations that totals 2,200 square feet.
The main house is all on one level except for a 600-square-foot bedroom and bath area above the guest garage.
The recreation building contains a basketball court, a squash court, two stages, a bedroom, kitchen, bathrooms, swimming pool, a four-story tower, and a room designated Johns Lounge.
Edwards was the Democratic candidate for vice president in 2004 and a former N.C. senator.
Thursday afternoon, the Edwards for President press office was unable to provide information on any additional buildings planned for the estate.
Well, it ain't much, but it's home......well, at least one of them anyway....
