Little Soldiers Can Fight The Gulf Oil Spill War

In the USA today,a solemn remembrance and tribute takes place for fallen heroes of all wars fought by US veterans.Parades,memorial services,TV documentaries,film
screenings and more pervade small town and large US cities activities on this day.
The challenges, battles and wars of the past lay the foundation for the strength and courage of future generations to survive when the going gets tough.
Today's global conflicts involve many challenges and battles fought in other arenas than combat zones.Sometimes the challenge requires a battle of wits, a merging of ideas or gathering of talents and skill to combat mortal enemies of ignorance,famine,
natural disasters and fear.
In the USA today, a small but significant battle is raging against a virulent oil
spill in the Gulf of Mexico.Life in those regions is literally threatened by the toxic effects of the oil spill on the food chain and economic sustenance of the people in the region.Animal and human family survival is at stake.
You do not have to live in the region to help fight the calamity! If you have an idea
or a solution to battle the oil spill, enlist your talents,skill, knowledge and creativity and do your part!
Children can make a difference too by learning about the issues and developing
knowledge and skills for future benefit of our natural animal and human resources.
The American Petroleum Institute (API) has an excellent on line classroom energy
presentation with lesson plan,games and interactive modules at
http://www.classroom-energy.org/about_us.html

At this site, you can learn about
oil drilling and the tools, equipment and methods used. Who knows? You may be able
to invent safer methods of gas and oil exploration!

Haarlem Hommie Tries To Stop Gulf Oil Leak

Hi Guyz! My fictional doggy brain is at it again.While my boss,fictional hoboclown
detective,Flash Mc Cool, was chillin' in his cave watching Colin Powell on today's
"This Week" TV Show in the USA, I was working the 2010 Gulf Oil leak case.Colin Powell,the retired four-star US Army General,former US Chairman of The Joint Chiefs of Staff and Secretary of State, described the Gulf oil leak as an economic,ecological,
and public trust issue with political implications beyond the disaster of the oil leak itself. He believes the President should bring all the appropriate US resources possible to address the ravaging impact of the oil leak and to give the people in the affected region hope and a return to normalcy.
I began to track down a rumor of a kid from Haarlem, who was on his way to the Gulf of Mexico to stop the oil leak.As the story goes,the 8 year old boy was on his way home and about to break into a run when he heard the sound of trickling water.He saw a small hole in a dike through which a "tiny stream was flowing". He reached the hole
and stuck his, "chubby little finger..in (and) the flowing was stopped". The boy heard about the Gulf oil leak and was on his way to stop the oil leak with his fat
stubby finger. However, as he neared Arizona he was turned back because he did not have a green card!
Actually guyz,I made part of this story up. When you're a K-9 assistant to a fictional hoboclown detective,you develop a vivid imagination.However, Colin Powell is real.You can watch his interview on the "This Week" sunday morning broadcast.
As for the kid from Haarlem, you can read all about his heroic story of Hope at

As for me, it's Memorial Day weekend and I'm going to lay in the cool corner of Flash Mc Cool's cave with a nice juicy B-B-Q flavored bone .

Gulf Oil Spill Faux Commentary

Hi guys! I'm back! I'm the dog-breathed, investigative K-9 assistant to Flash Mc Cool,fictional hoboclown detective.With the Administration being accused of not doing enough to solve the Gulf Oil Spill problem,the U.S. Department of Imagination,
Office of Emergency Creativity, has dispatched investigative consultant, Flash Mc Cool, to assist in the location of solutions to the problem. My boss had me scratch around the surface of the issue like most critics.I found that the Earth was alive! With a face like this,would I lie to you? Afterall,I am man's non-partisan Best friend! If the Earth is alive, then the ocean surface oil spill should be treated like a medical emergency.I'll bet two bones and my favorite old shoe that Dr. Gregory House can solve the problem.He and his super-charged team of medical diagnosticians can solve the problem in a one hour episode.The Earth is bleeding out.Medical genius,Dr. House, will fire up all the imaging techniques, find the source,the cause and the fix the problem! I don't care too much for Dr. House's
arrogant bed side manner but I love the cute little producer.She's a real Fox!

How To Find Yourself

Last night I used a hand-held GPS for the first time.
It's extremely comforting to know your precise location when you are lost!

Green Technology for Oil Spills is Already Here!

Have no fear! Old fictional hoboclown detective,Flash Mc Cool, is here.Internet clues have led me to Mother Nature's Green Technology that can naturally sop up oil spills!If the old clown can find this, you would think that Homeland Security and the US Coast Guard would be on it like fat on a hog!
Actually, a Copyrighted article written by Rachel Kaufman and published May 11,2010 for National Geographic News,laid out the green technology breakthroughs on fighting oil spills. Flash Mc Cool will not steal Ms. Kaufman and National Geographic News
thunder.Mother nature might get upset with that!So,I humbly refer all my blog readers to the article written by Ms. Kaufmann, entitled, 3 Future Oil-Spill Fighters: Sponges, Superbugs, and Herders. Now, to see if I can find some money to help these guys out so they can sop up the oil swill and put Louisiana back to work!!
I'd donate my treasure chest of play money but a "fat thumb " on Wall Street took that a few days ago!

Happy World Laughter Day !

The brain is hot-wired to make us laugh! When things don't compute or registers
in strange ways that we are not accustomed to, we laugh.Sometimes we laugh when
our slow thoughts or even super quick thoughts realize that someone or some thing has actually out-foxed us.Somehow foxes get credit for being clever! As a fictional
hoboclown detective,I often laugh at myself when I nab myself engaging in ludicrous thoughts.A case in point is my daily quest to eventually run into that super feminine
model who posed for the shapely model in the body world store window! What a dunce I am ! The chances of my running into that model is slim to none. Then again, 'slim' ain't bad. May 2nd is World laughter Day. So, do like His Laughness does and get your laugh ON!!

Old Bones and Hot Potatoes

You would think that a fictional hoboclown's best friend would unashamedly salivate over a fare of old bones and hot potatoes.Not so! At least not in the state of Arizona,U.S.A. According to wikipedia, the Arizona state motto is,"Ditat Deus, latin for," God enriches" .Arizona's fertile immigration history has enriched the state tremendously since the state's $15 million US dollars purchase from Mexico.Old bones of contention have been dug up by the new Arizona Immigration Law(a really hot potato!)I don't think I wanna chew on any of that!
Historical records indicated that the 1860 census for Arizona was," 6,482 (4,040 "indians",21 "free colored",2,421 "white") .More recently,a "2005-2007 "American Community Survey by the US Census Bureau" noted that 59% of Arizona's population were, "white americans" with 29% listed as "Latinos (of any race).In 2010, illegal immigrants were said to constitute an estimated, " 7.9% of the population (the
second highest percentage of any state in the nation)".Reading the history of Arizona and patrolling the four-sided fence around this state is more than my tiny k-9 mind and legs can bear.As for the old bones,I think the humans want me to bury them again!
