On His Way

Saying for the day: Adversity has the effect of eliciting talents which, in prosperous circumstances, would have lain dormant. ~Horace (Quintus Horatius Flaccus), Satires

We are threatened by Global Warming on the one hand and dependence on foreign oil on the other. Our economy is a shambles. Gas is up to $4.00 a gallon. Congress is too busy playing politics.
Never fear Mighty Mouse is on his way.
The help I’m sharing with you today is not ready yet. It is “ on the way”. In five years the first full scale plant should be in operation.
Have you ever looked at the damage done by a tornado and thought if there was only some way we could harness that power. Just think of what energy that could give us and renewable at that, Well Louis Michaud a Canadian engineer has dreamed such a dream and is now about five years away from making it a reality.
Michaud has figured out how to create a controlled tornado, a vortex of air, that will drive electric generators and create enough electricity to power 200,000 homes.
To start the tornado Michaud would use the waste heat from power plants that now is being vented into the air through cooling plants. That means we get all this new power and use no new fossil fuels. In addition we no longer vent that waste heat into the atmosphere. It is a win win situation.

#### News from Pigeon Falls-The little town in my basement where the trains still run, dragons fly, and life is back to normal. Two more people tried the Liar’s Club storytelling local contest. They got average scores of 5 and 5.6. Some people just can’t tell stories.
Liar’s Club President Buddy East wants to remind people on the internet that the other Liar’s Club contest, the one that is written not oral is open until July 20th. Information is available here.
Tommy UK had some kind of meeting with Mayor Trumble yesterday. It got fairly heated. People could hear them hollering at each other. Mrs. Trumble said something like “ It’s time”.
Tommy UK responded with a “ Not yet! Please! Not yet!.”
Then they went back to talking quietly.
Tammy asked Tommy UK what that was all about and he said that it just concerned something she had promised when he turned the Mayor’s position over to her. He thinks it’s too soon for that information to be made known.
Tammy had forgotten that there was a time when Tommy Uk was the Mayor of Pigeon Falls, it seems like so long ago.
Most of the Tommy Club is now convinced the big White Rabbit is a hoax. Only Tommy UK continues to insist it’s real. The white rabbit itself hasn’t been seen since the RCMP man was here.

Today's Link-bANK sTREeT irReLEvanTs-- - A weird story.
A pretty good day. I visited every one of my links and left comments on most of them. I read about one third of the first of my summer reading books " The Once and Future King". Now I need a breathing treatment.
