All The Best – Efficiency and Excellence
You
Were So Good To Me
She calmly sat in the car as I drove her to the
house, she kept talking about something and I wasn’t listening, the Chief’s
vote had been in our favour and of course, she had forgotten that she had
shouted at me.
It had taken a while to calm myself down, “Seeing
her true colours?” my mind had snapped back at me, and I had told myself to
calm down, I had seen this before so why was it hurting me so much today, I
drove the Dodge V8 slowly while she spoke of what we would do now, maybe eat
and get to the house again.
until today, then it had dawned on me that I
was nothing to her. I had side stepped
questions from her friends in the city council building and had walked out,
seeing from the corner of my eye Chief’s approval only.
I ran around the back soon as we got home,
looked around for my bag and started packing clear in my head that it was time
to get back to where I had come from; truth had been made abundantly clear to
me, leaving me in doubt what my next step was going to be.
“Aren’t you going to be making some dinner,”
she shouted from the living room, I quietly left the house and walked on to the
stream that flowed close to the house, there was a cluster of trees where I
usually sat down to smoke. I sat there
and waited for a sign, ten minutes turned to fifteen before this old man
appeared out of the background, he wore a thick robe, it was cold, he was
smoking a cigar with a Stetson on his head, I wasn’t sure about the gun running
laws here but I think I spotted a holster around his belly.
“You waiting,” he asked, I just nodded my head
and pointed to the stream, “Fishing then?” he said with a grimace, “It isn’t
allowed here.”
“Yes sir,” I said melancholically, no peace today here either, “Goodnight boy,” he said as I walked away. I took the long route home and reached at 11pm, late enough to avoid her. Next morning I sold my Dodge V8 and took the train home.

“I Just haven’t met You Yet.”

I have been hearing a lot of talk about why
should we change equipment to get Solar installed, shouldn’t solar work for our
existing equipment?
A few interesting points here:
1. Solar will work for the
existing equipment
2. It will work as
efficiently as your grid does for the equipment
3. Savings on the Grid are
magnified when converted to Solar
4. Grid and Solar are both
electricity
What constitutes an energy efficient system is
the Energy Star Rating, so let’s break it up, bird by bird, stone by stone, to
the top 5 in each category:
Ceiling Fans
Refrigerators
Television
Computer Monitor
More on how these efficiencies affect the electricity that we
pay for later on, for today I think I could rest my case.
