Never ask what kind of computer a person uses--if it's a Mac, he'll say; if not, why embarrass him?

Revealed: the environmental impact of Google searches

Physicist Alex Wissner-Gross says that performing two Google searches uses up as much energy as boiling the kettle for a cup of tea

We must stop them! For the polar bears! No time to check my calculations!

LOL, Lam!

Speaking of which...

I can't bring myself to watch the History channel this week. Every time I flip to that channel, some guy with a profession unbeknown to the viewer, is either spouting off about global warming, or the 2012 end of days!

Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.

I agree Silly, I am very selective on what shows I watch on discovery or the History channel anymore, I just cant stomach any more of their BS lies. Besides I refuse to raise their ratings by watching the crap.

Death throws its arms wide welcoming you into its shadow. Into the sweet abyss you shall follow.
