The way society bitches out in need for power

Recently Brazilian president Dilma has approved the construction of a hydroelectric plant, thus destroying 400,000 hectares of forest. This of course has terrible consequences and really provides a huge impact on the indigenous people of the Xingu River and on the ecosystem of many many species. Tens of thousands of letters and emails made to President Dilma were ignored and also 600,000 signatures were quietly ignored and tossed out the window. It's horrible to see such a heavy burden be placed upon nearly 40,000 local populations that rely on the ecosystem and ways of nature. They are being eradicated for power and economic possibility. We have to take care of our planet and it's a shame to realize that mere politicians have control over such a strenuous order without the word of the people.

I feel terrible for this man as he sits and weeps over the destruction of his life and people. The basis of their whole existence is being thrown into the pit of despair as the construction plan is enacted. Chief Raoni, this man crying, signifies how thousands upon thousands feel in Brazil. Please look at this man and help the cause.

Old School

 

Hell yea you know it.

Always remember your buddies. You'll be pretty blue later if you don't.

More trees please. Think about what you do.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

These people have the right idea. I know they're not talking about actual trees but you get the idea. I constantly see the environment go to shit around Houston, Texas. Forests completely demolished on the basis of building new freeways and "building" the economy. Rivers polluted with trash from college frat boys tailgating. Mounds of plastic flood areas of streets. I do believe people around Houston need to band together and help clean up areas that need it. Instant Karma points c'mon!.

The next time you throw your three dollar naked juice bottle on the street in front of your Whole Foods Market, please go to the back of your mind and think "Where the hell is that bottle going". There is no magical litter fairy that goes around and picks up your trash. Maybe if you see a trashcan with trash around it, then maybe you could be the nice guy and pick it up. Don't be the kid that tears the leaves off bushes.

Laundry oh Laundry

I'm just a tiny bit lazy on doing my laundry. The washing, the loading, and the drying isn't the part the bothers me. It's folding and putting away. I'm always perplexed by the amount of laundry that piles up in such a short amount of time. Laundry folding robot? Maybe.

Ya here we go.

Keeping a blog seems like a really dedicated task to do. I've always been pretty web savvy, but I have never been strong enough to keep a web project going. Looks like this is gonna be it, posts about life, playing music, taking it easy. Humorous and wondrous good times will come from this. Connection and creativity.

Just recently I've gotten hired at a french restaurant called Chez Nous to be a line cook. It's a pretty fancy and homely place. French Jazz music playing in the background, amazing food passing you by, and the smell of succulent good business. I've never worked in this type of place before but I hope I flourish in this type of thing. I have cook experience just not this much! Wish me luck really.

Really.

Picture of my delicious creations shall lay fresh upon this blog!
