Fossil Fuels, Trust and Karl Rove

I haven't been out lately. The weather, mostly the wind, has hampered "safari" conditions. The wildflowers are fantastic but difficult to photograph in such strong winds. I've wandered thru Jane's gardens taking flower photos but haven't taken the cameras on a trip. I snapped this photo between wind gusts. Jane's Amaryllis are in their full glory and more are blooming each day.

The uncooperative weather has left me with too much time to watch the news and browse the internet. Scott Adams wrote about "fossil fuels" in today's Dilbert blog. This guy can get really, really way out there. After reading this you may be seriously concerned when someone calls you "an old fossil." :-)

I am so fed up with news programs that require screaming. I think it was Cross Fire that started the yelling. I refuse to watch shows like Hannity and Combs, Bill O'Reilly, and, even thou I agree with most of what he says, Lou Dobbs is really reporting his opinion instead of the news. My most trusted reporter is Bob Sheiffer. He sometimes closes his Face the Nation show with an editorial opinion. I can handle that. What I can't condone is an entertainment show disguised as news. They are too Maury Povich for me.

Karl Rove and Sheryl Crow made the news this morning. That was entertaining. I dislike Karl Rove a lot. I think he may be the most distrusted person I know. I looked him up in an encyclopedia. The truth does little to change my distrust for this man. Take a few minutes to read the link. Do you realize this man is George Bush's chief advisor?

Don't eat Solyent Green. :-)
