Hey,
Man are we enjoying this beautiful island. Things are as close to perfect as things ever will. We've all made friends in our neighborhood and Shalen, who is quite a player, got a girlfriend named Patricia, and has already after 2 days, gotten all lovey dovey. We all approve of her and enjoy her being around but on our guys nights, we literally have to pull him away from the phone, so he doesn't start his lovey dovey trance. The thing is, Camilo has a crush on dear Patricia and has been practicing his oh so dear pick up lines. Off that note, yesterday our basement flooded and we have spent the entire day repairing all the damage it has done. Until later, see YOU later. Except for Shalen, he just left for the movies :).

A wonderful life long experience
Afternoon,
'Sigh', we just visited the food market farther inland, it was BEAUTIFUL!!! All of the fruits, and vegetables were grown organically from farms not 1km. away! The architecture of this lovely land is made of a natural occurring clay mixed with other organic material. It's as if we are living in an modern Mesopotamia. Although we have only lived here for several days, I'm beginning to feel that I am not alone in the battle for Green living. While we have all settled in and have made friends and met our community, we all feel that we have belonged here and now that we're here, it all seems like a dream. Now this is progress!

made it to Greenel
Wow!!!
We finally made it to the paradise island Greenel! We heard about the astonishing beauty of this island, but never seen it in it's true glory! I'm so happy we made it, I'm actually beginning to tear up! I hope you all have the chance to come to Greenel or at least live a green organic life. Our tiring work is finally over, and we can now rest knowing that we've helped in the way most people live. But that doesn't mean that we can't stop living organically and neither can you, we all need to do our part in one way or another. Hope I will be able to blog later, but for now! Tcau (bye)

Heading out!
What's up?
We've just finished packing up and Camilo, and Shalen have set out putting up the posters. Once they get back we'll make our way to the ferry terminal so we can embark on our long journey towards Greenel. Well, all we can do for now is wait in anticipation for their arrival. I'll let you know when we reach the ferry terminal, but for now, so long!

The big move
good morning,
We've officially decided to move to Greenel today! You may think that we should stay and help out, but we've been doing some tests on the soil. We saw that from all this pollution that oil and other chemicals have been accumialating under in the soil. Based on our research only one thing can happen. Eventually the entire base of this island will be slippery chemicals and the soil and other kinds of earth will slide off bringing the city with it. So we are going to put up hundreds of posters about what is going to happen all over the city, and then we'll embark on the first ship to Greenel. Ahhhh, what I wouldn't do for a day in the organic paradise that is Greenel. Well we need to do some packing so I need to go now. Don't worry we'll explain every thing that happened on the ferry.

Happy Halloween!!!
Happy Halloween everyone!
Sorry I couldn't post this the day of halloween but Operation: Flag Ship, was a success. We were able to show the civilians of Graynel who is responsible for this mess and who needs to take responsobility. It was so cute at how all the little kids showed up at our door with their costumes shouting "trick or treat". Other than us their have been many more tree plantings, and other resistance acts. We're pondering the thought of maybe moving to Greenel, it would be nice, though I would miss this little forsaken island. Well, until tomorrow or some other time, later!

Operation: Flag Ship
Good morning,
Today I woke up to the loud noise of hammering, banging, just your typical band starting. When I groggily walked down into the basement to discover the source, I saw Jesse and Shalen working on a strange craft. When I asked them what it was, they said they were fixing a SR-91 Aurora. Apparently they were replacing the engine with a bio-diesel tubine engine for a new resistance tactic. The plan is; Jesse flies up in the plane with a sign attatched to the plane (we need to fix Graynel). Hopfully people will realize that there is a problem with what we are doing and we need to change our ways.

Holy crap!!!
Hello once again,
When we arrived at the police station station to begin our 3 week sentence, it turned out the judge had been paid by Gordon D. Warden to make the consiquence a sentence in prison instead of the usual warning and fine. So a very observant cop saw the difference in the towns treasury and eventually traced it to the judge and Gordon D. Warden. I.E. We were set free and we all lived happily ever after (outside of jail that is).

3 week sentence
Hello,
We just got a 3 week sentence in prison for "postponing of production line". But being a faulty and corrupt system of law, I think it's only fair that you hear my side of the story. You see we came up with the idea that it would be nice if we got our message across by stopping the production line in a electronic factory. Our message was that we can live with what we have. No riots started because people couldn't buy new computers, so it kind of worked but a 3 week sentence isn't much to sneeze at. I've been told that I'm allowed to bring a laptop in as long as they can monitor my activity. It might be a while until my next posting so I appologize if you daily readers can't get hear more so au revior.

new stuff
2:10 pm, Tuesday, October 26th, 2010
Just this morning we planned and executed our first act. Today we started planting trees behind city hall. I must tell you, it felt good, digging up the earth smelling what was once a lush island, only to realize the smell was gasoline that had been poured into the soil. After what has been going on and what I have seen since I have opened my eyes, I've begun to pity all those around me, the ones who believe what is said by our authority because they want what is 'IN' and have forgotten what I believe is the true meaning of life. Now, the only comfort that can help me sleep at night is that I know what will happen. Knowing the truth is half the battle.

Sorry it's been so long since our last blogging. We were protesting at the city hall about how we need to be more aware of what the consiquences are going to be if we continue our lifestyle. In other words we were arrested for disturbing the peace (or so they say). We have some more bad news; Our organic resturant just had a visit from the Board of Health and was denied the right to serve to customers, they said it was because they found a health hazardous bacterea in our mixer. TOP SECRET, DO NOT READ UNLESS CERTAIN YOU WILL NOT SPEAK OF THIS:
Behind closed doors they said that we either needed to stop serving organic foods or else they would close our resturant and put on the street and under survielence. The reason being; they wanted people to stop eating organic so they would have more money to purchase technology.
Since we now have a long list as our criminal record, we've decided to now go underground. It's not going to be long before they come knocking on our door with an eviction notice.

Terrible!!!
It's terrible what's happened to this once beautiful island! What was once forests, ponds, lakes, even fields! Are now just endless homes of no differences what so ever. Gordon D. Warden clames that we own this land and all that was once there. I wouldn't be surprised if humanity started claiming species! Something must be done! So we (Jesse, Shalen, Camilo, and I) have decided to start an underground organic resistance. And to prove how out of hand things have become, a law has been made and signed by Gordon D. Warden himself that planting of organisms will officially be banned for (he says) it is misuse of this wonderful because it can be used for new factories or/and shopping malls which will provide many more jobs for the people. From now on this web page is made for logging all our resistance acts.

A new day
Ahhhh,
It's a fresh morning in the city of Graynel. Unfortunately, it's probably the only fresh thing on this forsaken island. When I woke up this morning, I woke up to the sound of chainsaws, cranes, and even jackhammers. The air was bitter with smoke and dust. Well anyways, I'm eager to officially open my new organic restaurant. I read in the paper on the way here that organic restaurants make more than a doctor! Well I guess that is because soon, there won't be anything organic on Graynel. Then we'll have to ship everything in, and then that means, hundreds of people will have to work in the factories or just convert over to processed and mutated foods. Well, I guess that's progress.

Lunch Time
For lunch we all had processed food from factories and fast food resturant. It was utterly disgusting, the main course was a pizza which looked like it was made 25 years ago, it even tasted like it was made 25 years ago! For a side we had: fast food (no idea which one) fries, with a tomatoe paste which looked more like a thick paint with a sticky texture. Ughhh, if this is what food is going to be like here we'd think we'd rather fish in a local puddle to at least try and get all the nutritional vitamins which our body needs. Well, that's progress.

Land Clearing
Even though I blogged a couple of minutes ago, I think this is very important that people must know. All this progress is nice and all, but with all the clearing of the forests going on, I don't think it 's the best for the enviroment. Now that I've seen all the plowing and destroying of natural habitats, I am begining to doubt President Gordon's sense of logic. Well, I guess that's progress.

First Day!!!
It's our first day on Graynel Island and Camilo, Shalen, Jesse, and I (Michael) have finally finished unpacking. It's really cool how we are one of the first among hundreds to inhabit Graynel. Hundreds of kilometers across the ocean, there is another island called Greenel. Greenel like Graynel is green lovely and has just been inhabited by humans. Our brand new leader Gordon D. Warden is clearing the land builiding all the buildings and houses we will need to live here. He says we will keep up with the world and import all the newest technology, personally I think it's a really good idea, but we need to produce a lot of pollution and use up a lot of land for factories to do it though. Well, I guess that's progress.
