Drill Here. Drill Now. Pay Less.

It's time to drill in ANWR, because it was time to drill twenty years ago. When I was in high school I debated for drilling in ANWR. As I've watched the decades slip by with no action, I've always been surprised. Worrying about an oil field in ANWR is like worrying about Clover, South Carolina taking up too much room. Believe it or not, ANWR is almost the same size as South Carolina. The Arctic National Wildlife Refuse is 19 million acres. That means that ANWR is bigger than the ten smallest states. ANWR covers more ground than Massachusetts, New Jersey, Hawaii, Connecticut, Delaware and Rhode Island combined. And almost all that grown is flat land populated by mosquitos all summer and frozen solid all winter. No one lives there. No one visits there. Television reporters bring back file footage of the Brooks Range 150 miles away from where the oil companies would set up camp because they don't even want to visit there.

ANWR will remain one of the last wild places on Earth if we start using 10,000 (they need less than that) acres out of that 19,000,000. Honestly, there is so much empty space up there folks that you'll never even miss it. Empty. Flat. Mosquitos. Lots of those little drillers around. Of the 370,000,000+ people alive in the United States today a few thousand will ever set foot in that corner of Alaska in their liftime .. and that is if they open ANWR for oil exploration. Why? Because it is empty, cold and not that pretty and people like to vacation in places like Hawaii.

Here is a page that explains how most Alaskans do suport development in the coastal plain of ANWR.

My Favorite Things

Thirteen of My Favorite Things Raindrops on roses, and whiskers on kittens.... I love watching and singing along to a great musical. When I was a kid I used to run about singing like life was a musical. People would ask me what I was singing, but I was just making it up as I went. And I love dancing. I talked my mother into letting me take ballet lessons for a little while. But I wasn’t graceful and my ballet teacher didn’t have very liberal thoughts on teaching children. If you sucked, she let you know. But, she couldn’t ever accuse me of not enjoying dancing. All my favorite songs are either on soundtracks, or are great story like “Desperado” by the Eagles. Listing thirteen favorites might be the subject of another Thursday Thirteen. Some of the movie songs I’ve listened to while typing today: Da Funk by Daft Punk on The Saint soundtrack and #1 Crush by Mundy on the Romeo & Juliet soundtrack. Writing. I can get lost in writing. I love creating stories and characters. Apparently e
