Thank you for the kind words, David.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold\">2. For the last couple of years<\/span> I&#8217;ve recycled a blog post on Earth Day. (Recycled! Yes!) I&#8217;m not going to re-post it today, but you can read <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.jasonboyett.com\/2008\/04\/our-big-honking-stuff-problem.html\">the original from 2008 here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold\">3. Tomorrow we return<\/span> to the much-beloved <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.jasonboyett.com\/2010\/01\/five-sentence-scary-story-contest-snow.html\">5-sentence scary story contest<\/a>. Which I LOVE. Look for a weird photo to be posted in the morning, along with a few random rules. Get your creativity flowing. You&#8217;ll have all weekend to enter.
