PUZZLES

I'm not always the best when it comes to crossword puzzles.  There are some crossword puzzles that I'm good at.  There are other crossword puzzles that I'm not so good at.  I guess it depends on the crossword puzzle in question.  I'm much better at jigsaw puzzles if I'm given enough time.  It might take a few months, but eventually, I manage to figure out where all the jigsaw puzzle pieces end up fitting into.  And there's something exhilarating about opening a jigsaw puzzle box, taking the jigsaw puzzle pieces out and fitting it all together to form a giant picture.  Crossword puzzles to a lesser extent and jigsaw puzzles to a larger extent is very useful in keeping my mind sharp.
And as I'm lost I thought while looking at jigsaw puzzle pieces, here are some photos of Alanis Morissette.  

IN PRAISE FOR SOLAR POWER

Wouldn't it be cool if we could figure out solar power.  Wouldn't it be cool if we wasn't so dependent on gasoline.  Solar power isn't that bad.  No toxic fumes.  No depletion of the ozone layer.  No greenhouse effect.  It's a renewable energy source that comes straight from the Earth's sun.  Yes, solar power doesn't work really well at night.  And solar power doesn't work really well underground.  Solar power doesn't work very well in deep space.  But if those problems could be solved, then it's the end of the energy crises as we know it.  Just think how great life would be if we were less dependent on gasoline and more dependent on environmentally friendly alternate energy sources.  Someday that will be a reality.  Someday.
And as I'm lost in thought about solar power, here are some photos of Emma Roberts.
