Saturday night, I konked Angela over the head with a billy club and drug her down to the Westhampton Twin to see the documentary staring former politician Al Gore, Jr., An Inconvenient Truth. Okay, so I really didn’t knock her out, either with a club or with drugs, but it did take some convincing on… Continue reading Al Gore’s “An Inconvenient Truth”

It’s Not Too Hard Being Green
So perhaps you’ve seen An Inconvenient Truth or you plan to. Maybe you have no intention seeing it because you’re convinced this is just all a bunch of bunk. Either way, being green doesn’t have to mean giving up a comfortable life style and taking the kids to live in a cave somewhere. As a… Continue reading It’s Not Too Hard Being Green

The Wonders Of Modern Medicine
Well, you usually don’t hear anything about pharmacists in the news. We have heard a lot over the last week or so, and it hasn’t been all that favorable.
Seeds of Joy

It’s already been on the newsstand for a year or so, but I tend to be behind the curve on these sorts of things. The magazine, which comes out bi-monthly, is fantastic reading.
