We Can Solve It | Send a Message to ABC
Joni Thu, 09 Oct 2008 19:03:58 -0000
I got this email from http://www.wecansolveit.org/ this morning and thought I’d share. I encourage you to sign the petition - not only will it help get the ad aired, it will tell the mass media that we’re concerned about environmental/climate issues. Dear Joni, Did you notice the ads after last night’s presidential debate? ABC had Chevron. CBS had [...]
Feeling crabby in these uncertain times

It’s kind of a freaky time in the good ole US of A lately. First, we have this bail-out plan brewing. That federal funds have to be used to bail out Wall Street scares the blank out of me. Then I find out watching the national news that half my inheritance was lost on Wall [...]
Is Palin Failin’?

They’re swarming…and it’s scarier than fiction

Back in my younger days, I worked a brief stint in the men’s department of Macy’s. I quickly bonded with one of my co-workers, and our giggle-fests ultimately got us both fired - much to our joy. I first noticed him when he was standing near me during a one-day sale and there were throngs [...]

Ocean and seafood lovers unite and spread the word. There is such a thing as sustainable seafood. And organizations such as SeaWeb’s Seafood Choices Alliance and Charting Nature are here to tell you all about it. Charting Nature donated 100 copies of their informative and beautiful Seafood Guide posters. The posters are available in fish or [...]
I can’t bear the ignorance any longer. Spread the facts: SHARK FIN SOUP IS BAD
Joni Wed, 20 Aug 2008 15:10:22 -0000
Because travel is one of life’s greatest pleasures, I often watch the Travel Channel to travel vicariously when I’m not traveling myself. There’s a show that I find interesting for its glimpse into off-the-beaten-path cultures, but not so much for its main focus - the consumption of “bizarre” food. Unfortunately, a recent episode featured the [...]
