It's sad how much our political system is control by corporations. Wait isn't that Fascism? Of course it's sadder how many citizens believe that their is nothing wrong with many of the practices depicted in this film.

DIRT! The Movie
This is a documentary about the economic, political, and social effects of Dirt(TOP SOIL).
I have to admit watching this show I remember how much I take for granted what Dirt provides.
I like the story about the hummingbird and the wild fire. I wonder where the story originated from. "Be like the hummingbird against the fire, do the best you can."
I'm really interesting in Microbial fuel cells, that is really, really cool.
The thing I always have found fascinating is that many religions, mythologies and so on, tell stories of how man came from or was made out of clay. What makes it amazing is that so many cultures have come to this realization or believed this. Also now we know from science that biologically and chemically it is a very true statement.

Tapped
This is a documentary about bottled water.
I use one Gatorade bottle that I fill with tap water and lemon juice. However after watching this documentary I looked at the bottom and saw PETE (name of plastic). Now I am thinking of the possible effect of the bottle leaking chemicals into the water. As I use it over and over again. Does this mean I will stop using the bottle, well not until I find me one of those reusable bottles.
Much of what is in this film I knew about already. However if you don't know about the harm that bottle water brings, not only the chemicals of the bottle but the process to create it. As well as the effect of so much plastic on the earth and in the oceans this video will make you more aware.
Also I think the bottle water bills should be in every state. The corporations should pay for the recycling of the bottles. Living in Michigan was sweet, I loved turning bottles in for the ten cents, honestly I wasn't thinking about the environment most of the time when I did.
Holy crap, who knew Nestle was so fucking evil. Then again Willy Wonka made chocolate and he seemed very "suspicious". I mean the original movie, didn't watch that Johnny Depp horror movie version.
I think the most telling part of this video is when Senator Kerry is talking to the head of the FDA. When he says that the FDA relies on the manufacturers to give them studies on what they sell and not independent reports, it was all I needed to hear. Learning that only one person regulates the bottle water industry doesn't even matter after hearing they rely on industry studies but that does make this case even sadder. No wonder people don't trust the government.
All I can say is I believe that water has to be the one, I say the ONE substance that should not be privatize EVER!
Water bottles are like prostitutes. You don't buy the bottle for the water, you buy it for the convenience to throw it away (go away in the prostitutes case).

RAMEN NOODLES
Ramen noodles are just too good. They are the perfect meal. I can eat this stuff all the time. However I only eat the shrimp flavor. The other flavors are edible but not satisfying.
I eat the "instant" noodles. Not sure that they are instant since the package stuff only takes two minutes but whatever. I prefer the packaged stuff but in a "pinch" I'll eat the cup of noodles.
What I need to start doing is making bigger meals out of these noodles. I know around the world they add meat and vegetables to their noodles. Why I haven't up to this point? I really have no idea. Laziness, ingorance, fear that it may taste bad cause I added the wrong thing. Or it's possible why ruin something that already works as is. Still, I'm going to try sooner or later to experiment.

Chocalate is a drug
Chocolate use to be consider a drug! The catholic church did a prohibition against it. Apparently it was considered very addictive. I can agree with that. I ate me some snickers just now, because they were calling me.
I feel like this sometimes. Chocolate is good.
