Good Bye, Chase, I Wish I Would Miss You.

Dear Chase,
It is with great sadness that I am forced to write you this letter. I enjoyed our relationship together for the past year. But, you see, since you took the TARP money from the taxpayers of the United States to go on a bank-buying spree, you’ve become so abusive to me that I began [...]

Watch the video. In short, one man has discovered, quite by accident, the potential to have almost unlimited free fuel for the planet: Salt Water.

Do What’s In Front Of You

One of the messages that keeps coming up for me these past few weeks is: “Do What’s In Front Of You.” So, I thought I’d share it with you.
