Here is the official 2013 Earth Day Report.
If we want to reduce greenhouses gases and poisonous carbon emissions, then environmentalists should shut up. I care about Mother Earth. I do not care about the Mother (redacted) DLFs ramming phony Earth Day nonsense down my throat. The planet can survive my right to eat a burger, use paper, drive a normal car, and breathe. It cannot survive the collapse of the global economy brought on by anti-commerce enviro-zealots.
I will take enviro-zealots more seriously when they practice what they preach and give up every petroleum-based product, including their keyboards and cell phones. Let them live in mud huts powered by wind from Obama-Biden speeches.
This concludes the official 2013 Earth Day Report.

Healing through humor amidst the Boston heartbreak
While there is nothing funny about death and destruction, the Boston Marathon bombing and subsequent events have people desperate to feel good again and crack smiles. Our choices as Americans are to laugh or cry. While there will be only tears for the families of the victims, the healing process has to begin. Humor is part of that, and “too soon” is subjective.
In the wake of 9/11, after taking a few days off, David Letterman returned and was masterful. The rest of the comedians soon returned.
So with a deep internal sense of sadness and anger, here are some streams of consciousness that will hopefully make somebody, somewhere crack a smile.

Shocker! Boston Marathon terrorists were Radical Islamists, not Tea Party
Now we have names, as well as motives.
The Boston Marathon bombers from Monday continued their killing spree on Thursday night with the murder of a police officer at MIT in Watertown, Massachusetts. Suspect 1, who was killed last night in a firefight with law enforcement, is Tamerlin Tsarnaev, age 26. On the loose as of Friday afternoon was 19-year-old Dzhokhar Tsarnaev. He was captured Friday night.
The question that was originally asked was what philosophy, ideology, or system of beliefs caused the radicalization. It’s called radical Islam.
