Well, Chinese new year at least. And one of my new year's resolutions is to resurrect this sorry excuse for a web log. I'm going to need your help, though, so let's start with five people leaving comments to this post.
Another resolution for this (Chinese) new year is to greenify my life beyond curbside recycling. What can I say, I love
Al Gore. I've got a few things to share that you might find interesting as I try to get my
carbon footprint to zero. And if you already hate me for being a smug, self-righteous bastard, it's probably about to get worse.
So, first post, let's tie the above two items together. Since this is the Year of the Pig, and eating pigs, it turns out, is
terrible for the environment (not to mention the pigs), that bacon bison burger I had last week will be the last yummy pork product I eat. Sure, it will be hard, since, as Vincent Vega so eloquently put it,
bacon tastes gooood. But my health might benefit, the environment might benefit, and the pig will definitely benefit, so that's good enough for me.

awesome. thank you jesus.
OK, that’s one.
And I said smug and self-righteous, but I wouldn’t say you have to call me Jesus…
Post Number 2: Who would have thought you could have found a relation between the year of the pig and “greenifying your life”?….I’m impressed. I mean I’m not going to call you jesus or anything, but good work.
mmmmmm bacon…
I haven’t eaten pork in a while, not because of my carbon footprint lowering, but because of a diet…looks like I’m helping the environment even as we speak [type]
however, I don’t want anyone to accuse me of being akin to Al Gore, heh
@woneffe/cotuit/how many internet names you got, man?!
you were the first comment from someone I didn’t directly spam via IM. That confirms my suspicion that hundreds of people are just sitting by their RSS readers, waiting patiently since November for a new Cry for Help.
@jallen
You can probably buy carbon-spew credits to offset your lower emissions. That’ll show them hippies!
@next poster, you’ll be number 5! Get to it!
my current plan is just to take some old tires from the dump and burn them in my fireplace… that’ll show ‘em
ha
Sitting on our RSS Readers waiting for Cry for Help to finally get updated ever since November…..nah.
I have at least 4 identities that I can think of off the top of my head.
@RKB
you know you missed it

Well, my single consanantizing* friend, that’s probably a good idea. (kill eye!?) I figure I screwed any chance at anonymity when I started posting under my full name URL, thus destroying any future attempts at running for elected office. Which, of course, is probably for the best.

Post #11 woot woot!!
Sorry, the brain’s not working right now.
All the sex tapes floating around out there are what keep me from running for office.
didn’t read ALL those comments, so i don’t know if anyone mentioned it, but Rolling Stone had a great article about Gore in last month’s (?) issue. You should read it, i think you’d enjoy….
