Randomness for a Sunday Morning

This morning I logged into Google as part of usual morning routine, and glanced over the news headlines. I read this article on cnn.com about Amelia Earhart which I found to be really fascinating. It suggests that she and her navigator didn't crash into the ocean as once thought, but perhaps landed near an atoll and were castaways for a bit. I've filed this one away in my brain to suggest to Ella or Lily if they ever have to do a school report on an important woman in American history or something like that.

Also on cnn.com, an article about global warming. My regular blog readers will know this is a topic of great interest to me and I am just amazed at the impact that Al Gore has made on the general public. Before his movie, An Inconvenient Truth came out, you barely heard about global warming, and many people didn't even know what it was. Now, I find information about it EVERYWHERE. There are articles almost daily on the internet news headlines. My Time magazine this week devoted a double issue to the topic. Anyway, just thought I would share and further promote this issue.

Cal just had to watch that movie in Science class. He's really interested in it & is really trying to do his part. I think it's great! I still haven't seen the movie (shh!!) but Tony & I have it on our "on demand" thingy here so we're going to sit down & watch it tonight.

Miss ya!
