There – I Fixed It

August 26, 2010March 18, 2017

HAVE YOU SEEN THIS?

It is the wondrous adventure of the plastic bag. A highly polished four-minute mockumentary. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry.

THERE – I FIXED IT

That’s the name of a website – thereifixedit.com – that testifies to the sometimes scary ingenuity of the American public. I couldn’t find a way to highlight favorites, but here’s one (imported to a different site) to give you an idea. And here’s someone’s top ten.

RACHEL MADDOW . . .

. . . had hit after hit Monday. First this piece on “scaring white people”; then this one on a Tea Party guide for avoiding black neighborhoods if you attend Glenn Beck’s odd civil rights march this weekend; this one on the alleged year of the anti-incumbent (except the incumbent seems to keep winning); and this one on the credit card reforms that have just kicked in (you can no longer be charged $29 for exceeding your credit limit by $5 or have the interest jacked up on stuff you’ve already purchased).

Enjoy!

Quote of the Day

"Most of the world's Big Problems have a common denominator: waste. In every nation and every community and every company and almost every household, there is waste of money, energy, resources, and human potential. Fretting won't change this. Action can. It's also more fun."

Hunter Lovins, The Rocky Mountain Institute
