footprints

have you ever done that survey/questionaire thing that lets you know how big your foot is? or the mark it makes in/on the environment in your life's wake, rather.
trod on and see!

i like THIS site for the checking!

uh oh: if everyone on the planet lived my lifestyle, we would need: 3.76 earths.

well, i'm doing better than the average - must be all that vegetarian, bussing, & tini condo-ing i do! warming my place by running the shower set to lava-hot probably wouldn't be endorsed, however.

this couple's minimalistic lifestyle can't leave much of even a baby dent! holy.

it takes all types ???

no. no, it does not.
waiting for the bus is an excellent place where you'll get the chance to hear people saying and thinking "it certainly takes all types in this world!" you can hear this just by looking at their faces - looks of shock, expressions of disgust, feelings of concern, questions in their eyes.
one morning a couple weeks ago i saw This (minus the bat, thank gawd):

really? then it talked. he wanted to engage in dialog, wondering if i'd seen the #17 go by. well, buddy i'd certainly considered running the other way as soon as i saw you, with the assumption that this situation cannot be safe (no way!), because, obviously, he either has a weapon of sorts & there's a plan to kill me OR he really wants to show me something he has in his pants. whatever the situation, i'm certain it was not an appropriate time for conversation.

what was he thinking? i'm just gonna wander into the world looking super creepy just to see the reactions of the street's normals - it'll be way funny? ...playing it cool, i gave him nothing to report.

so back to my original statement ... it does not "take all types." it is often said, but i disagree. think about it. i coulda done without dude that morning. the world would get on just fine without him.

the world would turn without this fool (perfect example of why we don't take candy from strangers!):

the sun will rise without this ... person:
stars will shine should this similar gent w/ his questionable (yet nicely contemplative) character go away:this kiddo, even if just trying to make a buck, is gross. i could have done without seeing him and his talent:
no harm done, but, again, not necessary:

this fella could use some grooming:

and for sure THIS GUY.

some of them may make the world more interesting, but it ... don't. take. all. types.

just sayin.

green bus

what is THIS coming down the road?
a hybrid metrotransit bus, it is!!! there's awesome stadium seating in there, it smells new and it's FREE!!!

thru the end of the year all fares are waived so Hop On.

these buses offer 22% better fuel mileage & produce 90% fewer emissions & are soooo very quiet.

what an initiative - good job twin cities!

what's the worst that can happen?

this guy has a point...

hit PLAY and learn & think about it, then change.

gracias.

more to come on this.
