One of the biggest wasters of energy in your home is the incandescent light bulb. But there is an easy way to replace this outdated power sucking relic.

New low energy consumption compact fluorescent lighting technology can shave a considerable chunk of money off your electricity bill. The bulbs which can be easily identified by the swirly tube appearance are a bit more expensive that conventional bulbs, but they will help reduce your carbon foot print, and help to reduce CO2 emissions which contribute to global warming.
The new Compact Flourescent Light Bulbs (CFLs) now come in designer shapes, so you can replace the six or seven 60 watt (or 100w for some) bulbs in you bathroom vanity with 12 or 15 watt CFB’s. Reducing power consumption from 360 to 700 watts down to 72 to 105 watts. Now THAT’s a smart idea!
If you have a bunch of kids, do them a favor and replace your outdated incandescent bulbs this weekend. The reduction in global warming will help to brighten their future.
The week before Memorial Day and gas prices continue to soar.
My local station is at $3.44 for regular, but I just paid $3.47 for mid grade to fill up my Goldwing.
It was only $11.50 to fill ‘er up, so I guess I know what I’ll be driving this summer. People will not change their ways until it really hurts, and apparently it does not hurt enough, yet. At what point will drivers slow down, car pool, and plan their trips better? I do it all right now, are you?

The question is, what will you do for fun if gas prices keep going up? Are we all expected to sit home and wait?
When life gives you lemons, make lemonade! If, you have a yard, or an unused space in your home, consider a remodeling project that brings entertainmnet back home.
In the mean time, find the best gas prices in your area. 
May 8th gas prices climbed again from $3.09 / gal to $3.13 / gal.
What effect, if any will this have on motorists who like to go out on the town for a few drinks? Should bar owners be worried?
