I didn't mean to. I am an environmentalist. Really. But before I knew it, there it was, in front of my house.

    Glacier killers?

    I saw that Cadillac Escapade/Escalade/Petroaide machine.

    I thought Hummers were big. I cricked my neck to look up and see who was driving that thing. (A skinny anorexic looking bleach blond with Ann Coulter eyes)

    I once got reamed for wearing real leather Birkenstock shoes. They last for decades! Give me a break. They wear like iron and fit so well and I don't have to replace them quickly. They are just a bitch to break in... There are trade offs with everything...
