I’ve always had a fascination with the Amish.

Anouk confirms that they are amazing, indirectly. Ok, maybe the video stylizes their lifestyle a little, but what isn’t stylized anymore? Just watch.

Brown is a better green

Well you see, friends, environmental responsibility is not new. It used to be called economy and practicality and some among us can remember it. Now, "green" is trendy and we're starting to forget what it's about. The Romans lost their recipe for concrete before discovering it again. It's not too late for us to remember the good old days and ways. It isn't a fad, it's a lifestyle and a concept for living. Instead of just thinking green, don't forget about the brown and the blue and the whole big picture. Brown is soil: organic, fresh - the bed of life. It's old school and it works, whereas green strikes me as being a little disco, in a bad way.
