It was only a matter of time.

And it will get worse.
Al Gore won't like you for exposing this sort of thing. Watch CNN Headline
News on May 2nd at 7:00 pm.

For $25 you can get a tree planted in Harry's name by the Chesapeake Bay.
Now *that* is worthwhile carbon offsettlement!
If you get enough participants will it be named the "Harry Krause Rec.Boats
Forest?"
The Harry Krause Carbon Credit National Forest for Homeless Indigent
Critters. :)
If enough of youse guys want to send me $25 each, I'll buy a magnolia
grandiflora, plant it in the front yard, take a photo, and post it so
you can all see what you bought. Since I live right by Chesapeake Bay,
you can deal direct with me, avoid the middle man, and help prevent the
next Herring fundraising scam.

No credit, carbon or otherwise. Cash only. American.


I'd take Euros - worth more. :)


And you can spend them on eBay!

BTW, my kitchenette cabinets are supposed to be delivered tomorrow. I
expect to see all of you with your hand tools sometime next week. I've
got my supervisor's hardhat all polished.


The last person you want showing up with tools in hand is me.

I can deal with metal. Despite the fact that I have a complete wood
shop, wood and I don't get along very well. :)

So much so that when I offered to redo the kitchen cabinets, Mrs. Wave
immediately called a local cabinet maker to do a rush job so I
wouldn't (1) end up in the hospital again with severed limbs/digits
and (2) return to the scene of the crime and do it again. :)
