Sadly, I will be participating in this earth hour scam this year. I’ll be camping and have no electrical power nearby at all.

I defecate on “Earth Hour”.

Let me get this straight...they are turning out the lights in a campus dining hall? Sounds like a good opportunity to use up all that expired mystery meat!

I remember eating dorm food back in the day. It would have tasted better if I didn’t have to have seen it.

I only wish I had a big spotlight or searchlight in my yard to light up.

I have one of those $12.95 500 watt Quartz Work Lights, going to fire up the generator to power it.

Does it qualify as a searchlight?

Ha! Good catch!
