Among all the bad news lately -- bad stocks, increasing gas prices, a terrible market for homes, war -- it was a little fascinating to watch the NBC News crew this week and their reports about the environment, especially interesting was Monday's report about wind power ...
Why so many communities are up in arms about wind power and the aesthetics of the gigantic white turbines has always perplexed me ... "I think their kind of pretty," Kates said as we began to watch the segment. " I know!" I added. For me there's always been something sort of romantic about driving through a rural area and passing those turbines, peacefully churning in the air ... And hey, it's good for the environment! ...
Beyond the news though, NBC's crowning achievement (and the genesis for this post) was clearly tonight's "30 Rock." David Schwimmer, Meredith Viera and Al Gore made guest appearances and delivered some ha-larious lines ...
Jenna: The only reason men start taking care of themselves is if they're getting someone to have sex with them. If it wasn't for that, they'd just sit at home in their own filth.
Liz (while looking at a burning globe): This Earth is ruined! We gotta get a new one!
Al Gore: Shhh, do you hear that? A whale is in trouble. I gotta go!
