Did I just buy an SUV?

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

    @ had_ enough

    No, man, I understood. I was just being silly, I guess, with all the hard penis stuff. It seemed sorta funny at the time.

    What I said about my truck is all true. But the thing is, I'm often pissed at myself for clinging to all this mechanical tonnage as I enter a time in my life when I'm slowing down.

    And, actually, I'm hoping hybrids and electric cars get a big boost during the coming Obama Administration. I'm all for them, you bet.

    Sorta feel bad for Mark Benjamin catching so much hell here today. But, he does leave his shirt untucked, and he does wear that awful little black vest.

    Keep thinking, had_enough. Keep trying to figure all this stuff out.

    oh, it's Greeves. A quick Google image search will give you the picture.
