Thanks for commenting!! And thanks for the tip...it would be great if all grocery stores would do that. Like I told you, I would probably pay them to keep the bags...they are taking over my apt. because I can't bear to throw them away. But with that said...a couple of other ideas for using those things: * When cooking, throw your scraps/garbage (chicken remnants, stinky things) into it and just throw that out instead of having to bear the smell of it in your garbage can...also reduces the # of garbage bags you use! * And your favorite, of course, use them for packing boxes to be stored away or shipped! Dad - Whether or not your intentions behind turning off all of the lights and telling us "to put on more clothes" was to help save the earth...more like save $$ on the energy bill...but whatever, it all works out just the same! And I must have gotten the attraction to green from you! Andrew - I'm quite familiar with the 'ol Chevy Cobalt...happens to be the last 2 cars I've rented...2 and 4 door!! I bet you're looking smooth cruising around LA! Thanks guys! Take care....And keep the comments coming.... Hey Heather! Thanks for commenting!!

It is powerless, but it does save gas! I’m driving around a sub-compact Chevy Cobalt while in LA. It is powerless, but it does save gas!

Definately partial to green, especially lime green. I do not know if I have ever considered myself a real environmentalist, but I will say I love green - all greens, so there must be some of awareness of mother earth in my daily life, even if it is trapped some where inside. I do believe with the help of your mother, I have made a better effort. One thing you have to admit, I was always a "turn off the lights kind of guy" and always will be.

Nice posting. You are defenitely right by saying that we all need to be accountable and start making a change in the way that we treat the earth. And the great part is that it can be as simple as recycling or reusing an object instead of throwing it away. We always take our own canvas bags to the grocery store instead of getting the plastic bags. It is actually a win/win situation because the grocery store gives us a 3 cent bag discount for each canvas bag that we bring. Every little bit helps!! Keep up the good work........Talk to you soon. Miss you bunches!! Love, H Good morning LaLa! Nice posting. You are defenitely right by saying that we all need to be accountable and start making a change in the way that we treat the earth.
