 we adopted a polar bear!

Tonight on TV there was a video clip of a Polar Bear standing all alone on a broken piece of shrinking ice.
And I said, "honey, can you imagine how much our lives would change if we were out there seeing this in person?"  So I got on wwf and adopted a polar bear.
Here is the details:

That's cool, but I would have spent my money trying to help a human in need instead of an animal.

Oh, I already do. I've sponsored Asha - a little girl in Africa - for a little over a year now through this ministry: http://www.compassion.com/default.htm

gawd I just love it when you are excited about donating to something great and someone comes in and tells you a better way to spend your money.

Many Kudos to you and Missy you did a wonderful thing!

Maybe I can convince both of you to adopt a greyhound (well I can at least try)

www.friendsofgreyhounds.com

for the months of NOV and DEC they have brought the adoption fee do

wn from 175 to 75. You can get two for one.

also three news photos that I took on election day, I was out working on my portfolio, made it on CNN through ireport. Two of them were put with articles about the election. The producer of ireport called me 15 minutes after the photos were posted and spoke to me on the phone for at least 20 minutes on the phone. Maybe this will lead to a job in photojournalism, I hope so ( I can at least hope).

all the best,

Currently, there are too many people on the planet, and animals are disappearing at a rapid pace. Imagine the exponential increase in world population since the start of the industrial age. Technology has allowed humans to increase its population. Soon all we'll have left are cats, dogs and humans. Oh, and gold fish and lots of cockroaches.

Missy, Gary, you guys rock. I think Lenspainter's point is that she 'wins' at donating.

Oh, by the way, you and missy might want to determine ahead of time how you're going to handle your polar coming and asking why he doesn't look like you guys, and he wants to meet his biological parents.

Isn't a polar Bear really just a rectangular Bear after a simple coordinate transformation?

"Currently, there are too many people on the planet, "

OH YAY!
who says so?

YOU, Al (idiot) Gore?

anyways I don't believe it.

Here we go birth control for everybody (wheather you want it or not)

Don't believe EVERYTHING the liberals (aka democrats) tell you.

You don't have to go to the "belief" realm to agree with it, you just have to look at the scientific research. You know the sceintific method does not require you to believe, but rather adhere to the rigors of science. If you don't "believe" in science I suggest you get off the internet right now, or stop using a refrigerator, or microwave, cellphone, tv, solar heat, and forget about any of the new liberal technologies that will replace fossil fuel.

If you believe jesus is coming then you get to use his dads creation like it is a christmas gift i suppose but if you respect what you know to be verifiable true than you'll step up and begin to breed responsibly, hunt responsibly, consume responsibly and make an effort to reverse the incredible damage we are doing to the planet.

How noble
You "donate" every April 15th by force of law. Why not just let the Govt. figure it all out for you.

Have you a brain?

Do you think for yourself ?

No you just take what the liberals tell you and believe it.

I think God (who created you ) is a smarter than you and Al (idiot) Gore.

Brainless!

Well, we just landslided you so now you are under the power of the liberals. The conservative movement is a complete failure. Jerry Falwel, Pat Roberston, James Dobson, Ted Haggard, are all vile hate spewing relics that are slowly fading into the horizon. The youth voted this time and guess what, they voted against you. Bye....
