Sustainability is a hot button topic right now. Almost every country has shown some interest in getting involved with the sustainability movement at the risk of being looked at as wasteful and environmentally unfriendly. Even the US government has begun backtracking on their previously denying of global warming. But what is sustainability really? Many people associate sustainability with being green however that is only one small part of the total picture.

So, guys, now that I have listened to the masses and removed that ads, what sort of polling question should I ask?  Maybe it should be simple: McCain or Obama?  Please let me know via the comments.

My friends! I have listened to your requests for me to remove advertising from Memes.org in the poll I have had on the site for months now, Should I Remove the Ads from Memes.org? - 36 votes: 58% in favor of removing the ads is good enough for me. Does this make you happier? What should the next poll be? Please put your suggestions in the comments below!

It's time I came clean. This story is going to be hard to believe. I mean, I would be pretty sceptical if someone told me what I'm about to tell you. This year I actually spoke to a bird.

When the day comes, that black people, people of color, don't have to prepare our babies to know, not even to understand, that they will be discriminated because of the color of their skin. We will have arrived! This pitiful realization is at center stage n o w! It appears no matter the education, the presentation, the words, the actions. The racial divide card can still be played. Unless one has lived with this negativitiy it is impossible to fathom it's devastating affect.
