Bless me, Goracle, for I have sinned

Bono on Gore: "It's like being with an Irish priest. You start to confess your sins. Father Al, I am not just a noise polluter; I am a noise-polluting, diesel-soaking, gulfstream-flying rock star. I'm going to kick the habit. I'm trying, Father Al."

Large men in tight tights go green on Sunday, competing with daredevil snowboarders and a Sports Illustrated swimsuit model for eco-cred points. Cheer 'em on, athletic supporters!

greening the yards too!

Greening homes is awesome...let's not forget about the yards too! You can calculate the emissions from your lawn equipment by going to www.cleanairlawncare.com & clicking on Clean Lawn Calculator.

Thank you for being you. Great list. Although, I'll admit I did always kinda have a thing for Brian. I'm a sucker for the "boy next door." sigh for teenage angst. :)
