Camping, chainsaws and campfire music ignoring climate extremists

Tom KirkmanIndependent Project Manager

Camping another night back by the Shiawassee River. Earlier this week used a chainsaw to cut up several dead trees, 2 pickup trucks full of wood.

Doing my part to combat global warming by ignoring the blathering far left extremists, and burning lots of biomass, for no reason whatsoever except that I like big campfires.

Using batteries to power a boom box with a CD player (that’s green, right?) and playing music in front of the campfire for a few days.

My music collection is fairly eclectic. Listening to Coltraine, 40’s boogie woogie, Devo, Minor Threat, Bauhaus, ELO, Throbbing Gristle, Skinny Puppy, The Residents, Sonic Youth (the drummer was one of my housemates during university days) Boston, AC/DC, Van Halen, and an assortment of jazz and big band from the 40’s.

Life is good : )

Next week I’ll resume commenting about international oil & gas, but for now, taking a break from the world.
