Before anything else, I hope you can listen to a cute Philippine Christmas carol. I love listening to this one, though I myself cannot even pronounce the title of this song. Ha ha ha …… Well, Just 2. 08 minutes, folks.
I have been hideously busy, guys, so sorry for not reading any blog for the past few weeks. My work schedule is brutal, and though I am well compensated, working extra hours and going home everyday at 12 midnight can be exhausting.. I work at a dairy company, so you can just imagine the demands for our products during the holiday. And you know, we not only produce for our own company brand, we make for 54 other brands, such as for supermarkets and fast food restaurants. For example , we supply the creamer for McDonalds, even if you see their brand McDonalds on their creamers. It’s the same for other well known stores that have their own ” house brands” . We don’t really expect these massive stores to have their own dairy company, right ? We supply their dairy stuff with their brand, such as …. well, I don’t know if I have to divulge it. Having said that, rest assured we in the laboratory make them safe for you, from raw materials to finished ones…. just pay attention to expiration dates, okay ?
So, what’s going on in the world ? I just saw the news about this North Korean soldier who managed to escape from the Demilitarized zone (DMZ) to South Korea. He was shot 5 times by his North Korean fellow soldiers. Fortunately, he survived. The irony in this is , though he survived from 5 bullet wounds, he might die from malnutrition. The doctors who operated on his stomach were shocked to find massive number of parasites in his stomach, one as long as 11 inches.
Sanctions have been placed on North Korea, and that included supply of fertilizers. China could have supplied their fertilizer needs, but I assume N. Korea decided on ” organic ” fertilizers , such as feces and urine. Cheaper and ” better”, right ? As long as there are people, there will be an endless supply of natural fertilizers. Well, here’s an advice from yours truly, a microbiologist. If you don’t know where that organic lettuce comes from, you better scrub each and every leaf of that lettuce and wash it well. (._.”) Remember Chipotle ? Don’t get me wrong. I fully approve of sustainable organic farming, but it should be disease – free.
And while I’m at it, I advise you to have your kids properly vaccinated.
And please have a water bottle refilled , instead of buying bottled water.
Carefully unwrap the gifts you receive and reuse the wrapper, and keep the boxes and those fancy , glittery gift paper bags for next year. Recycle, recycle, recycle.
California has a very good recycling system. My brother’s engineering company has already built 3 water recycling plants here in California, and the company is presently building a green waste ( from plants , leaves, etc ) recycling plant in Southern California that will provide energy from green wastes.
However, I wish California would lower the cost of solar energy materials. We had a solar water heater installed in our house, and it cost us $ 6,000 for that one .
Remaining water in our drinking glass is poured into a potted plant. We have discarded our sprinkling system a long time ago. We use garden hose .to water the lawn.
