Happy New year to you-all out there----
2008 for us was the year of changing lifestyle. This year we moved out of a 5000 sq.ft. house into a 1200 sq. ft. historic bungalow--rehabbing and starting on the yard--and it was a busy yea
r--we remodeled the kitchen--replaced the entire house electrical system---replaced the concrete driveway----laid hardwood floors throughout the house--painted all the rooms---repaired the shed--mounted four solar panels---privacy fenced the yard--built our waist height, square foot gardens for this coming spring--planted 8 trees---rehabbed the garage into an art studio---

not) was to start living a life of art, energy simplicity, financial responsibility, and value for the future. 2009 is for refinement of our concept...and enjoyment....2009 should see less big work, more enjoyment, flowers and greater attention to the good life, details....Anyway that's our story and plan---apparently we're not alone----Here's a link to another individual who spent a year living more simply---it displays what you can do in the real world----

I jus
t ordered two copies (one for my boss, who's a friend, not ass-kissing here) of the book---"TONY SOPRANO ON MANAGEMENT" I'll review this book on a later blog...but I've always said that everything i do on the job is based on the Godfather Movies---since I'm a big Soprano fan---it can't hurt...it may help to translate my natural state of New Jerseyese for my staff...... 
I just became aware of this 2009 release, Science Fiction film, 2012, if the film is 1/10th as good as the trailer (you can see it at the link below) it will be something to see... http://www.sonypictures.com/movies/2012/
2012 is by Roland Emmerich the writer/director of Independence day & Godzilla....
This is 
hard to accept but...after watching the new X-FILES movie for a second time for the specific purpose of determining what type of watch Mulder is wearing. In this 2nd film---i discovered that there was not one, single shot of Mulder wearing a watch---amazing---in the series time & watches were a huge element--with a corresponding number of watch shots...the new film however passes this element by completely?

Only a Russian would predict that West Virgina would join forces with the European Union? This is a link to a prediction by a Soviet academic describing the future breakup of the United States of America. There have always been predictions of the unraveling of the union---and it is a typical SF plot circumstance....however even the furthest out SF writer never, ever considered the possibility of West, by God, Virgina paying for chewing tobacco with Euro's.....This i enjoy, electric transport filling a commerical niche'.
ZINGO is a we drive you home from the bar service...they arrive on electric scooters that fold up--and is placed in your trunk---they then drive you home in your car and then scooter on to the next job...how cool....no dui's and social responsibility combined together....
I hope you are looking forward to the new year--we have much to be thankful for---Bush is gone and in 18 days Obama is President---i'm so proud of us---and for the first time in a very,very long time i'm looking forward to our future---take your dog to the park.... try making a tank of gas last as long as you can...start planning a garden for the spring...pick up one piece of trash where you work---
