This is a fantastic talk. Growing fish in natural resources.

I think an important part of that conversation he hit at the end. Teaching people to feed themselves through natural ways and teaching farmers relationships.

It’s a topic I’ve thought about for years. There are many countries who have starving people. Non-profit companies then ask people for money to send them clean water and food. Another Tedster discussed the creation of a water filter that would clean dirty water. I like this idea, too, about feeding hungry countries but not only sending food, but sending seeds, cattle, and more. Let them learn how to feed themselves.

Teach a man to fish…

I had one of those embarrasing movie moments yesterday.

I saw this guy walking his dog yesterday. My string of thoughts were the following.

  • He’s kind of cute.
  • Wow, actually, he looks like Chris Trapper.
  • How is he walking three dogs at once?
  • He really does look like Chris Trapper.
  • How’d he get his hair to do that?
  • I really shouldn’t be staring at him.
  • Really, how is he handling three dogs at a time?
  • He’s going to notice me staring, I’ll just pretend I’m looking at the dogs.
  • But by the heavens, he looks like Chris Trapper.
  • So at that point I’m just staring. Probably really creepily too as my mouth was part open and like I was totally just bug eyeing him.

    So he says hello.

    And I croak, “Hi–”… Yes, I never get to the “I” because I’ve already choked on it.

    Total movie moment. Yeah. I’m so embarrased. ;) I walked on and then went through all the flutterings of embarrasment. I’m sort of shy about walking that way again. That was so funny though.
