He Who Has the Crap Claims the Laziness

We now bring you Part MCMXVII in the "Mike Really Does Not Care for the Process of Moving" series...

Boxing Day

I really hate moving. It's a terrible, terrible chore. But going green did make one part of my recent move this past weekend a little more bearable.

O Brothel, Where Art Thou?

There's my entry for "Best Sex Industry Pun." My mother must be so proud right now.

Beer Itself

There is one other thing we have to fear: a beer and wine tasting event where most vendors are pouring you full glasses of wine and beer while also being pretty lax about taking your drink tickets. Yikes.

The Free Musketeers

Wooooo, free stuff! Who doesn't like free stuff? Crazy people, that's who. You're not crazy are you? ARE YOU? If you are, I sure hope you're not near my house or my stash of gummy bears, because everyone knows that crazy people love gummy bears. Oh, wait.

Green By Numbers

Last week, Newsweek released its long-hyped green rankings of the 500 largest companies in the United States. I would say it made for a few surprises.

1. Hewlett-Packard
2. Dell
3. Johnson & Johnson
4. Intel
5. IBM

On My Soapbox

…about eco-soap. I'm pretty sure that wasn't a pun, but it's hard to tell anymore.

So I've been trying out different eco-soap varieties lately…some are meh, some I really dig (Whole Foods' Rosemary Mint Glycerin Soap), but outside of the glycerin varieties, I seem to run into the same problem with these bars: They almost always fall apart long before their time.

I May Be Bitter But My Tomatoes Sure Aren't

Rules are rules. I get that. And in order to win the coveted Golden Hoe, I had to grow edible food by the end of the contest, something I will readily admit I did not do.

Mossters, Inc.

Why we humans think we can improve on nature - which was had millions of years to hone its processes - is beyond me. But if you can't beat 'em, join 'em, right?

Aca-demy More

SF Biters who are total science geeks, unite!

Hey, since when are there crickets in this office? Anywho, starting tonight, everyone can get more science exhibit/eco-building action at California Academy of Sciences.
