Last night I watched Buffy win $22,800 on Jeopardy - OK it was somebody else named Buffy. I think this Buffy was in her thirties and a bit overweight which got me to wondering if that might eventually happen to our Buffy if she lives long enough. Then coincidentally twenty minutes later I saw Sarah Michelle Geller on E!'s "The Daily 10" looking prettier than ever.
Monday night I watched "Life After People" on the History Channel while finishing my second book of the year The World Without Us by Alan Weisman. Both covered similar topics but are supposedly unrelated to each other - pure serendipity they say. Both are a bit grim in describing the effects of humanity on the Earth. Our descendents are going to curse the day we ever invented plastic as much of it is apparently indestructible and in the oceans breaks down into nurdles and enters the food chain. We really are messing up our beautiful planet and if we don't grow up and act in a sensible manner and take care of our home we may end up becoming a cancer from which the Earth will take millenia to recover from (after we've died off due to out own stupidity and greed).
