Here's another pleasant video from one of the many environmental groups I spend hard earned money supporting.
Regardless of whatever justifications some may lean on, it's just plain wrong--- actually, cowardly--- to shoot innocent creatures from the comfort of an airplane.... You wouldn't like it if it was you.
Wolves are a vital part of any ecosystem, and if there's too many... guess who's fault it probably is? There are other solutions to humankind's need to meddle with nature, if the social and political will can be mustered. Please consider helping.

Hello Friends, Forget that other crap called radio you've been not listening to while stuck in traffic. If you havn't already discovered Luxuriamusic.com, check it out. No this ain't spam either, so get your hand offa that mouse.
Luxuriamusic is non-profit Internet radio, streamable right to your PC, Laptop or whatever you're into man. The swinging sounds of the 60's and more, everything from Bossa Nova, Surf, Psychedelia, lounge, Go-Go to, uh....well you get the picture.
This stuff has been fueling the long hours preparing for my next solo art show "Mono" opening in 2 weeks in Seattle, and as the name implies, is a direct shot of some of the greatest stuff ever written, recorded and performed. And some amazing obscure covers of classic hits.
Luxuriamusic has only like, one or 2 commercials and some very cool DJ's, like Switched-On Audrey for example (Sundays 2-4pm) who is my fav.
They need new listeners, and support, so if you dig it, please consider becoming a member and parting with say, $25 bucks a month, it won't kill ya, trust me. And it'll get ya alot farther than halfa tank of gas.
