Well,
ReplyDeleteYou all want to hear a good one? Steve just came up stairs and told me that an Earth Hour group that is located near our former environmental VP -Al Gore's home noticed that last night from the hour of 8:30 - 9:30 pm, he did not turn out his interior home lights, nor the spotlights that light up the outside of his home..... along his driveway....so much for his dedication.....
mrs b:( how could you forget me!
ReplyDeleteNo I didn't did I? I am sad and embarrassed. You and the crew were so good, I would never have smiled so much if you had not been there!! Thank you so much for including me in your life for this one night...I will miss your laugh so much.....
ReplyDeletehaha thanks mrs B:)its understandable..earth hour was pretty crazy and even better than i expected and i am happy to say that you and mrs nantz were there the whole time to help us prepare and see it through. So thanks for having faith in us!I am proud to say that our class accomplished something great together and hopefully made some kind of impact of L-town!

ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more about the success! I was looking at some of the pictures from the Gaston Gazette & I was really proud at how great we all looked. The view from the roof was also killer (in both senses of the word haha) & it was a really great time!!
Yall a pretty tough looking group of apes. Im proud i can be in such a group.
ReplyDeletei agree...when we first talked about earth hour i never dreamed it would such a success and we would accomplish as much as we did...Thank you Mrs. Bosiak and Mrs. Nantz for always supporting us...im so proud to be a LHS APES
ReplyDeleteI, also, am proud to be an APE. Those pictures look great! I wonder if the sillouette of Chris was intentional? This was an awesome night, and even though some people in Lincolnton forgot (they all forgot, mind you, no one just didn't do it, that would be wrong)it turned out better and more fun then I think anyone could have hoped for...Al Gore...
ReplyDeleteway to go to Gore!
ReplyDeleteSaint James loved us coming btw.
also..it was great to see yall on the front page..
mrs.b i visited state this weekend..i thought of you!
Oh my gosh yall did a great job, Im so sad I was unable to be there:( Im so proud of everyone yall are the BEST!!! And all the pictures were great great job!!
ReplyDeletesorry i couldnt make it, but ill have everyone know that I sucessfully forced Kathleen to participate against her wishes-we worked too hard for me to allow defiance!!

ReplyDeleteI will get the pictures loaded, Mrs. Bosiak as soon as possible. I have had a lazy weekend! It was greatly needed, though. Anyway, this weekend (Saturday night specifically) was great fun! We'll have all major news outlets in Charlotte jealous they didn't come. I still feel like that was partly my fault, though. Apparently, they had bigger fish to fry. But, I certainly didn't let that stop me from having a great time with everyone. I am going to have to come back next year. Hopefully next years APES will do an Earth Hour event, too!
Justin, it certainly was not your fault....you did a great job and you are right, they missed an excellent time.......
ReplyDeleteYall are amazing....We have got to be the greatest APES that ever were....We truly are a rare rare breed.....I look forward to class and whatever we tackle next....Does a trip to save the whales with Greenpeace sound good Logan?....Thanks everybody who helped and put so much dedication into such a great clause......Thank You
ReplyDeleteEpisode 2: What Happened to the Lights
ReplyDelete"I was traveling to one of my triple agent meetings in Boise, Idaho; when lights started going off everywhere and with me traveling by parachute I began to not be able to see and crashed landed into an Esurance Billboard. Little to my knowledge was that lights everywhere were going off and the answer was right in front of me (Esurance Billboard for Earth Hour). I thought that the North Korean's finally shot their missile off and struck a power plant. I was in awe until I finally turned around and read the billboard. Stupid me I thought to myself." Tune in Next Week for "Where on Earth is Carmen Sandiego" and she might just meet up with Greenpeace on a whaling adventure.
Good job you guys
ReplyDeletechristopher, you're hilarious.
ReplyDeletei hate i missed out on Saturday night :( but the pictures are amazing, and i'm so glad we have such an enthustiastic group! i'm going to miss y'all next year :(
Yeaaahhh! also mama has some pics that i will have her e-mail to u
ReplyDeleteIf yall can get me all the pictures, I will put them all together in a big folder and either put it on ur flash drive or bring me a cd. I will also pull the slideshow movie off the web and save it.
ReplyDeleteCHris that would be great...that way anyone who wanted it could have a copy.....will you put your video and the commercial on as well?
ReplyDeleteI have a new project......ask me tomorrow...
ReplyDeleteSorry I couldn't be there but I am proud of all of you and prouder to be an ape.
ReplyDeleteit was a great time and a great thing for me to be apart of thanks you to all
ReplyDeleteDo not fret Mrs. B; I will not stop until I reach the ranks of Earth Hour General.
ReplyDeletelol yea i barely made it after i had to go back and get my chips. the slide show was really neat. and i can actually breathe now that Earth is over but that doesn't mean we stop here :]]
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad that we were noticed for our efforts. At least we can say we did something while all those phonies (like the Green Team-Did I just write that?) sit there and look stupid. WAY TO GO APES!
ReplyDeleteMegan,
ReplyDeleteBe nice , but I agree with all of you that we keep some activity going. Natalie asked me to post a new blog called New Projects, which I did. Steve's idea is simple but could be very effective if we use the idea of Earth Day as our theme and then invite the dignitaries as well.....
Yeah, I deff was able to get the pics off of the Gaston Gazette.....YAY ME.....Ill bring them tomorrrow
ReplyDeleteEarth Hour was great, I would never expected it would of been so successful, but it was!! ...and I'm really glad I decided to come.
