Sorting through my email I found these …

–A little Cat Nap …
If you like cats, you’ll love this one. I think it’s one of the cutest things I’ve ever seen. It’s funny how animals can just do some of the cutest things sometimes without even knowing it.

–Nation on Notice
With the power crisis in California, alot of the rest of the country is starting to look at us as big babies. Of course, they felt differently, when they were all rushing over here to get a piece of the dotcom pie, so the following is a little bit of information to make you shut your traps about California.

-California ranks 48th in the nation in power consumed per person.
-California grows more than half the nation’s fruit, nuts and vegetables.
We’re keeping them. We need something to eat when the power goes out. We grow 99 percent or more of the nation’s almonds, artichokes, dates, figs, kiwifruit, olives, persimmons, pistachios, prunes, raisins and walnuts. Hope you won’t miss them.
-California is the nation’s number one dairy state. We’re keeping our dairy products. We’ll need plenty of fresh ones since our Refrigerators can’t be relied upon. Got milk?
-We Californians are gonna keep all our high-tech software in state. Silicon Valley is ours, after all. Without enough electricity, which you’re
apparently keeping for yourselves, we just plain don’t have enough software to spare.
-We’re keeping all our airplanes. California builds a good percentage of the commercial airliners available to fly you people to where you want to go. When yours wear out, you’d better hope Boeing’s Washington plant can keep you supplied. There isn’t enough electricity here to allow us to export any more planes than we need ourselves.
-And while we’re at it, we’re keeping all our high-tech aerospace stuff, too, like the sophisticated weapons systems that let you sleep at night, not worried you might wake up under the rule of some foreign kook.
-Oh, yeah, and if you want to make a long-distance call, remember where the satellite components and tracking systems come from. Maybe you could get back in the habit of writing letters.
-Want to see a blockbuster movie this weekend? Come to California. We make them here. Since we’ll now have to make them with our own electricity, we’re keeping them. Even if we shot them somewhere else, the labs, printing facilities, editing facilities, and sound facilities are all here.
-Want some nice domestic wine? We produce over 17 million gallons per year. We’ll need all it to drown our sorrows when we think about the fact that no matter how many California products we export to make the rest of America’s lives better, America can’t see its way clear to help us out with a little electricity. You can no longer have any of our
wine.

You all complain that we don’t build enough power plants. Well, you don’t grow enough food, write enough software, make enough movies, build enough airplanes and defense systems or make enough wine.
