I think I just scared one of my local friends, one I didn't even know had totally opposite alternative energy views. And her family's in the oil business, which I didn't know, until now. I went into a long rant about the need for alternative energy, not wanting a job with a crappy commute, not with the cost of gas approaching $5.00/gallon. She asked, "Which do you want more, a decent job or a decent commute?" See, I'm at a crossroads as I have some clients, but not quite enough to be a freelanc… Continue

In the rain-ish dew we sit waiting for a gas truck from Texas. People are stomping their feet and cursing. So many stations went out of business and bankrupt cause of the rising fuel costs and many couldn’t take the heat of a restless crowd. But Earl, my husband, the station owner has patience from years of Tai Chi. He doesn’t move so fast and neither do I as I hold his hand. It’s sweating like mine. There’s nothing we can do but wait. The truck will be here we have been told and told before,… Continue

CNG - The Other Kind of Gas Rate: 0 With gas prices nearing $5.00/gallon all summer I've been studying natural gas, CNG for months and considering getting the Honda GX Natural Gas car . It's been looking better and better. CNG is only about a $1.75 a gallon and even cheaper if you have a home filling station. In my state of California there are many natural gas filling stations, actually a ton and more and opening up all the time. According to NGV America there are already: There are over 120… Continue

I want to invite you to check out the Artists Round-Up group.
Because I knew of no other way to do this on this site I decided to create the project in the form of a group. Although, at least in it's beginning stages, the group is really more of a roster for artists to sign in and make themselves know to each other and to all those who are involved in the Pickens Plan than it is an actual group. It is possible though, and not unexpected, that it perhaps will sooner or later evolve into being a genuine group and doing and having as a genuine group.
For now though, I both invite and encourage you to at least go and check the group out. Once you see the set up you'll know whether it's for you or not. And if the purpose of the Artists Round-Up group does not indicate to you maybe there are others you know who might be interested. In such a cirucumstance I would, of course, appreciate your telling them about the group.

My name is RoseMarie LaCoursiere, I am new to pickensplan.com as of Friday, and thank you for joining this new group I launched yesterday.
We have something in common, I'm passionate about writing as well...and a published business writer. I applaud your successes and wish you many more.
Moments ago I registered the domain www.pickensjobs.com realizing a stand alone jobs site is going to be necessary.
Keep an eye on my seed planted, spread the word and I'll keep my eyes open for writing opportunities. As a matter of fact, please go to my page, and scroll down to ctngreencom -- You should introduce yourself to Jeff and land yourself a green feature to write!
All the best, be inspired.

My wife and I are tring to write a book about personal tragedy and how our state government is quick in sympathy but slow to assist even if a regular citizen has saved Tax payers 30 million dollars a year with a bill they were able to get passed.
My question is would you be willing to hear our story and possible assit us with this Book.
