I may be...

... the last person in fandom to discover this website ... but it's got some really beautiful wallpapers.

This is on my desktop right now. PURDY!

Poll: more than half of Americans still have some common sense

Over the coming decades, which do you think will pose a more serious threat to the world — the effects of climate change and global warming or the effects of global terrorism?

Effects of climate change and global warming 28%

Equal effects 15%

Don’t know 4%

Here's the original article.

Like Dennis Miller said -- I can't worry about the Earth; I'm too busy worrying about the world.

Interested in seeing how the old lj community stacks up.

I saw this cool website on the (network!) news tonight... US Patriot Companies. Basically it's a list of companies across the country who have pledged not to employ illegal aliens.

Some of the big ones are Baskin Robbins, U-Haul and Costco. You can find local companies by going to the website and looking under your state, and hey -- if you happen to know someone who belongs there, send in their name!

I know if I had the choice, I would much prefer to spend my money with companies who have made this public promise to follow the law and not give into the 'everyone else does it' apathy that has unfortunately become so common.
