Finally the pictures of the shredded car of the Commie reporter(hostage terrorist film editor-whatever)

Captains Quarters Blog has pics from the Italian source.

Personally I've seen cars in worse shape driving around in San Antonio.

(Sorry about the lack of posting, wife and 14 yr-old were playing a word game- education first)
I'm listening to Fox News this morning, and I'll make a prediction
I'm sure others have made the same one, but I haven't heard of it. I predict that the 'peacefull' HAMAS lead unity tour will end in loss of life, or people wounded anyway.
These people are terrorists, they can't use any kind of presuasion exept coercion of some kind.

AND gee, Martha is on TV again- it's like they're trying to convince me that she's worth something to me, or is somehow newsworthy.

Yet another Arcticle about the Ozone hole, exept now it's over Britain

This time they're using an old Soviet spyplane, guess satellites just aren't giving them the info they want?

Read all about the new EUro-hole here.
Ok, it's a nautical Monday

Thanks to Drudge, we have a stranding of a Dolphin Pod because (maybe) a US Sub was holding exercises 45 MILES away.

I'm glad those concerned 'scientists' are so knowlegable about marine mamals:
Some scientists surmise that loud bursts of sonar, which can be heard for miles in the water, may disorient or scare marine mammals, causing them to surface too quickly and suffer the equivalent of what divers know as the bends — when sudden decompression forms nitrogen bubbles in tissue.

Obviously, dolphins stop in stages to prevent "the BENDS" just like human divers who use COMPRESSED air to breath underwater. Well, if they'r not scared from loud noises from evil US subs that is . . . Unlike you know eco-friendly Russian and Chinese subs.

If cybersex was like the real world


Wellhung: Hello, Sweetheart. What do you look like?

Sweetheart: I am wearing a red silk blouse, a miniskirt and high heels. I work out every day, I'm toned and perfect. My measurements are 36-24-36. What do you look like?

Wellhung: I'm 6'3" and about 250 pounds. I wear glasses and I have on a pair of blue sweat pants I just bought from Wal-Mart. I'm also wearing a T-shirt with a few spots of barbecue sauce on it from dinner. It's smells funny.

Sweetheart: I want you! Would you like to screw me?

Wellhung: OK

Sweetheart: We're in my bedroom. There's soft music playing on the stereo and candles on my dresser and night table. I'm looking up into your eyes, smiling. My hand works its way down to your crotch and begins to fondle your huge, swelling bulge.

Wellhung: I'm gulping, I'm beginning to sweat.

Sweetheart: I'm pulling up your shirt and kissing your chest.

Wellhung: Now I'm unbuttoning your blouse. My hands are trembling.

Sweetheart: I'm moaning softly.

Wellhung: I'm taking hold of your blouse and sliding it off slowly.

Sweetheart: I'm throwing my head back in pleasure. The cool silk slides off my warm skin. I'm rubbing your bulge faster, pulling and rubbing.

Wellhung: My hands suddenly jerks spastically and accidentally rips a hole in your blouse. I'm sorry.

Sweetheart: That's OK, it wasn't really too expensive.

Wellhung: I'll pay for it.

Sweetheart: Don't worry about it. I'm wearing a lacy black bra. My soft breasts are rising and falling, as I breath harder and harder.

Wellhung: I'm fumbling with the clasp on your bra. I think it's stuck. Do you have any scissors?

Sweetheart: I take your hand and kiss it softly...I'm reaching back undoing the clasp. The bra slides off my body. The air caresses my breasts. My nipples are erect for you.

Wellhung: How did you do that? I'm picking up the bra and inspecting the clasp.

Sweetheart: I'm arching my back. Oh baby. I just want to feel your tongue all over me.

Wellhung: I'm dropping the bra. Now I'm licking your, you know, breasts. They're neat!

Sweetheart: I'm running my fingers through your hair. Now I'm nibbling your ear.

Wellhung: I suddenly sneeze. Your breasts are covered with spit and phlegm.

Sweetheart: What?

Wellhung: I'm so sorry. Really.

Sweetheart: I'm wiping your phlegm off my breasts with the remains of my blouse.

Wellhung: I'm taking the sopping wet blouse from you. I drop it with a plop.

Sweetheart: OK. I'm pulling your sweat pants down and rubbing you hard tool.

Wellhung: I'm screaming like a woman. Your hands are cold! Yeeee!

Sweetheart: I'm pulling up my miniskirt. Take off my panties!

Wellhung: I'm pulling off your panties. My tongue is going all over, in and out nibbling on you... ummm... wait a minute.

Sweetheart: What's the matter?

Wellhung: I've got a pubic hair caught in my throat. I'm choking!

Sweetheart: Are you OK?

Wellhung: I'm having a coughing fit! I'm turning all red.

Sweetheart: Can I help?

Wellhung: I'm running to the kitchen, choking wildly. I'm fumbling through the cabinets, looking for a cup. Where do you keep your cups?

Sweetheart: In the cabinet to the right of the sink.

Wellhung: I'm drinking a cup of water. There, that's better.

Sweetheart: Come back to me lover.

Wellhung: I'm washing the cup now.

Sweetheart: I'm on the bed arching for you.

Wellhung: I'm drying the cup. Now I'm putting it back in the cabinet. And now I'm walking back to the bedroom. Wait, it's dark, I'm lost. Where's the bedroom?

Sweetheart: Last door on the left at the end of the hall.

Wellhung: I found it.

Sweetheart: I'm tuggin' off your pants. I'm moaning. I want you so badly.

Wellhung: Me too.

Sweetheart: Your pants are off. I kiss you passionately our naked bodies pressing each other.

Wellhung: Your face is pushing my glasses into my face. It hurts.

Sweetheart: Why don't you take off your glasses?

Wellhung: OK, but I can't see very well without them. I place the glasses on the night table.

Sweetheart: I'm bending over the bed. Give it to me, baby!

Wellhung: I have to pee. I'm fumbling my way blindly across the room and toward the bathroom.

Sweetheart: Hurry back, lover!

Wellhung: I find the bathroom and it's dark. I'm feeling around for the toilet. I lift the lid.

Sweetheart: I'm waiting eagerly for your return.

Wellhung: I'm done going. I'm feeling around for the flush handle, but I can't find it. Uh-oh!

Sweetheart: What's the matter now?

Wellhung: I've realized that I've peed into your laundry hamper. Sorry again. I'm walking back to the bedroom now, blindly feeling my way.

Sweetheart: Mmmm, yes. Come on.

Wellhung: OK, now I'm going to put my...you know...thing...in your... you know...woman's thing.

Sweetheart: Yes! Do it, baby! Do it!

Wellhung: I'm touching your smooth butt. It feels so nice. I kiss your neck. Umm, I'm having a little trouble here.

Sweetheart: I'm moving my ass back and forth, moaning. I can't stand it another second! Slide in! Screw me now!

Wellhung: I'm flaccid.

Sweetheart: What?

Wellhung: I'm limp. I can't sustain an erection.

Sweetheart: I'm standing up and turning around, an incredulous look on my face.

Wellhung: I'm shrugging with a sad look on my face, my wiener is all floppy. I'm going to get my glasses and see what's wrong.

Sweetheart: No, never mind. I'm getting dressed. I'm putting on my underwear. Now I'm putting on my wet nasty blouse.

Wellhung: No wait! Now I'm squinting, trying to find the night table. I'm feeling along the dresser, knocking over cans of hair spray, picture frames and your candles.

Sweetheart: I'm buttoning my blouse. Now I'm putting on my shoes.

Wellhung: I've found my glasses. I'm putting them on. My God! One of our candles fell on the curtain. The curtain is on fire! I'm pointing at it, a shocked look on my face.

Sweetheart: Go to hell! I'm logging off, you loser!

Wellhung: Now the carpet is on fire! Oh nooooo!

Sweetheart: Bye!!!

I don't have dogs,

I have two critters that look like dogs. One is a great fat white Hefalump. The other is part Gopher and part Beaver. She's gnawed a Crepe Myrtle down to the stump and is working on a new boxwood. I just got done extending the electric fence past her NEW escape rout when I saw the Boxwood.

I'll probably post their pics on my new blog.
I'll have more "stuff" on my new blog, just don't want to add to this one, as I'll not be using it much longer.

New names being thought of:
Herding cats
Oh gawd, now what?
Half a bubble off

Comments gratfully accepted.
So, the wife was talking to the Old Sod, and 'Global Warming' came up


It reminded me of yesterdays post about the Ozone layer disapearing (or not).

Over acroos the water, they have the "BeeB" and they believe in global warming. She said over here most Americans don't; It's my opinion that we actually look at other sources for the facts.
Another article I found last night (can't remember where to link) was from the Brits themselves.

The article (Arcticle?) basicly said that -yes there have been periods of global warming BEFORE *man* even DISCOVERED fire!

Antarctic ice shelf retreats happened before

No: 4/2005 23 Feb 2005

The retreat of Antarctic ice shelves is not new according to research published this week (24 Feb) in the journal Geology by scientists from Universities of Durham, Edinburgh and British Antarctic Survey (BAS).

A study of George VI Ice Shelf on the Antarctic Peninsula is the first to show that this currently ‘healthy’ ice shelf experienced an extensive retreat about 9500 years ago, more than anything seen in recent years. The retreat coincided with a shift in ocean currents that occurred after a long period of warmth. Whilst rising air temperatures are believed to be the primary cause of recent dramatic disintegration of ice shelves like Larsen B, the new study suggests that the ocean may play a more significant role in destroying them than previously thought.


Damn those Cro-Magnon SUVs

Buried farther down in the Arcticle is this little gem:

In 2001 the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPPC) predicted future sea level rise on the assumption that the Antarctic ice sheet would not make a significant contribution over the next one hundred years. Recent data from the Pine Island and Thwaites glaciers in Antarctica suggest that this area is making a contribution, but whether this is a short-term fluctuation, or a result of recent or ancient climate change, is an open question. Our ability to predict the future of this part of the West Antarctic ice sheet is limited and basic information such as the ice sheet thickness, conditions beneath the ice at bedrock, and past ice sheet history are required to build numerical models that will allow robust prediction.


Update 6:00PM: Another article on 'global warming'.

Friday, March 04, 2005

Surprizingly enough, this came from a Brit paper

ONE OF MY favourite cinematic moments is the scene in Monty Python’s Life of Brian when Reg, aka John Cleese, the leader of the People’s Front of Judea, is trying to whip up anti-Roman sentiment among his team of slightly hesitant commandos.

“What have the Romans ever done for us?” he asks.

“Well, there’s the aqueduct,” somebody says, thoughtfully. “The sanitation,” says another. “Public order,” offers a third. Reg reluctantly acknowledges that there may have been a couple of benefits. But then steadily, and with increasing enthusiasm, his men reel off a litany of the good things the Romans have wrought with their occupation of the Holy Land.

Heh

And

I can’t help but think of that scene as I watch the contortions of the anti-American hordes in Britain, Europe and even in the US itself in response to the remarkable events that are unfolding in the real Middle East today.

Little more than three years after US forces, backed by their faithful British allies (and all of our allies) , set foot in Afghanistan, the entire historical dynamic of this blighted region has already shifted.

Ignoring, fortunately, the assault from clever world opinion on America’s motives, its credibility and its ambitions, the Bush Administration set out not only to eliminate immediate threats but also to remake the Middle East. In the last month, the pace of progress has accelerated, and from Beirut to Kabul.


Then

But something very important is happening now, something that will be very hard to stop. And, although not all of it can be directly attributed to the US strategy in the region, can anyone seriously argue that it would have happened without it? Neither is it true, as some have tried to argue, that all of this is merely some unintended consequence of an immoral and misconceived war in Iraq.

It was always the express goal of the Bush Administration to change the regime in Baghdad, precisely because of the opportunities for democracy it would open up in the rest of the Arab world. George Bush understands the simple but historically demonstrable thesis that freedom is not only the most basic of human rights, but also the best way to ensure that nations do not go to war with each other


But where is the kant- "bush lied" "No WMDS"?

OHH, a Euroweinie that likes what we did.
That's odd, I was lead to believe that Arctic Ozone holes were the direct result of Humans?

I guess someone's not quite telling the entire truth:

Nitrogen oxides generated by solar particles are bad news for ozone.
A stream of particles from the Sun, in combination with extreme weather conditions, caused an unprecedented thinning last year of the upper Arctic ozone layer.

Scientists have been puzzled by the chemical processes that destroyed up to 60% of ozone molecules in the lower mesosphere and upper stratosphere (the atmospheric layers that lie 30 to 40 kilometres above ground) in the first months of 2004. Reactions with chlorofluorocarbons (CFC), the compounds responsible for ozone depletion in the lower stratosphere, could not explain the decline in higher layers.



The article also goes on to say:
"Ozone is a form of oxygen that shields the Earth from dangerous ultraviolet radiation from space. Ozone holes were first detected in the 1980s above the South Pole. Soon afterwards, CFCs were phased out under the 1987 Montreal Protocol. Ozone holes do still occur regularly in the Antarctic, but at high northern latitudes they are observed only in particularly cold winters."


So now we can start wondering, was there an Ozone hole BEFORE we had satelites to measure the Ozone layer?

WHat did the know, and when did they know it?

I'm listening to Fox news, and thinking about 2 Supreme Court rulings

First is the ban on minors on Death Row.

Ok this guy kills someone when he's 16 or 17 (tourtures them to death, burns them to death, throws them off an overpass, whatever). The new law seems to say he wasn't able to realize the conequences- didn't know it was wrong.
OK, in that vein we should ban minors from driving, holding part time jobs, anything that holds the SLIGHTEST hint of responibility.
Sorry emancipated minors, can't enter into any housing contracts, or join the military.
Update- I just looked at Drudge when I read this, ironic, isn't it?


Then the 10 Commandments-again

Can someone SHOW me where in the Constitution it SAYS the 'Seperation of Church and state'?
There is a link on my sidebar directly to the ACTUAL Constitution, all I can find is that "Congress shall make no laws establishing"a State religion or forcing you to join. The ACLU should be willing to step up- They've been using the Federalist papers instead of the Constitution to show what was "Supposed" to be in there.

If a religious group has a problem with just the Christian version, we'll be glad to let you add your version. You do have something like that, right? The Jews follow the Old Testement, so they remember Moses comming down from the mountain, too.
Moslems? The 'Religion of Peace' HAS to have something like that. I'm sure they'd love to have their core beliefes out in the open for all to see.

Anyone hear about what's going on in Kuwait?

Last you probably heard was when we first re-invaded Iraq, where most of the "pol responders" backed Sadaam.
Things are changing there, things that should be going on in other places(like here).

These MOSLEMS who intimatly know ISLAM are taking on terrorism head on, and with the goal of WINNING.

Ok, they had a rough start:
IN THE PAST FEW WEEKS, Kuwait has been waging its own war on terror at home. The police have engaged in five fierce and bloody gun battles with extremists since January 10, as reported by the Associated Press. Five policemen have been killed in these encounters, along with four security men and two bystanders; foreign observers described police conduct as "ham-handed." But the police also managed to kill 9 suspected terrorists and arrest more than 40.

But they learned fast:

Jolted by this first serious clash with Islamist terrorists, Kuwaiti authorities acted swiftly to tackle the root of the problem: They are closing down unlicensed mosques and barring Saudi imams, the tireless purveyors of Islamist extremism, from preaching inside the emirate. In addition, the AP confirms that Kuwaiti authorities are blocking Islamic websites that incite violence, seizing radical books from mosques, and purging textbooks of extremism.

Expressing the nub of the new policy, former Kuwaiti oil minister Ali al-Baghli wrote in the Kuwait daily Al Qabas on February 2: "What is needed is to cut off the snake's head, namely the masters of terror and all those who propagate terror in mosques and the media."


More. . .

Which goes to prove that SOME Muslems understand that terrorism is just terrorism.
Looks like I'll be doing alot of lurking for the next few days

After this rain we've had, we'll be off (exept for signing in) the next two days.
I talked to my new boss, and he'll let me do some part time stuff in Castroville Thurs. and Fri. for well- orientation- you could say; paperwork, gas and electric systems problem areas, meeting my kids, uniforms, , ,

We get off at 4- I think, and it's a looong drive back thru San Antonio to Maxwell.
I'll be tired, and just keeping up on my favorite blogs.
My wife just forwarded an e-mail- asking if it was true?

And unfortunatly, I'd have to say if it's not completely true it is in the most part.



Subject: Social Security

IT DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU ARE REPUBLICAN OR DEMOCRAT!

KEEP IT GOING!!!!

2008 Election Issue!!

GET A BILL STARTED TO PLACE ALL POLITICIANS ON SOC. SEC.
This must be an issue in "2008 ". Please! Keep it going.

----------------------------------
SOCIAL SECURITY:
(This is worth reading. It is short and to the point.)

Perhaps we are asking the wrong questions during election years.
Our Senators and Congresswomen do not pay into Social Security and, of course, they do not collect from it.
You see, Social Security benefits were not suitable for persons of their rare elevation in society. They felt they should have a special plan for themselves. So, many years ago they voted in their own benefit plan .
In more recent years, no congressperson has felt the need to change it. After all, it is a great plan.
For all practical purposes their plan works like this:
When they retire, they continue to draw the same pay until they die.
Except it may increase from time to time for cost of living adjustments..
This is calculated on an average life span for each of those two Dignitaries. For example, Senator Byrd and Congressman White and their wives may expect to draw $7,800,000.00 (that's Seven Million, Eight-Hundred Thousand Dollars), with their wives drawing $275,000.00 during the last years of their lives.
Younger Dignitaries who retire at an early age, will receive much more during the rest of their lives.
Their cost for this excellent plan is $0.00. NADA....ZILCH....
This little perk they voted for themselves is free to them. You and I pick up the tab for this plan. The funds for this fine retirement plan come directly from the General Funds;
"OUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORK"!
>From our own Social Security Plan, which you and I pay (or have paid) into,-every payday until we retire (which amount is matched by our employer)-we can expect to get an average of $1,000 per month after retirement.
Or, in other words, we would have to collect our average of $1,000 monthly benefits for 68 years and one (1) month to equal Senator! Bill Bradley's benefits!
Social Security could be very good if only one small change were made.

That change would be to:
Jerk the Golden Fleece Retirement Plan from under the Senators and Congressmen. Put them into the Social Security plan with the rest of us
then sit back.....
and watch how fast they would fix it.
If enough people receive this, maybe a seed of awareness will be planted and maybe good changes will evolve.
How many people can YOU send this to? Better yet.....
How many people WILL you send this to??
Happy Birthday Sam !
Thank you for the link, Joe!

The move is proceeding apace

Talked to a property management guy yesterday, at a conservative guess we'll look at about $550/mo before their cut (that was before I found out we could leave the Fridge, washer and dryer).

Made an offer in a doublewide on about an acre of land- no down. Might be a slight problem with the FHA loan- I gad a kinda choppy work history what with injuries and the race problem ( I was the wrong color, and didn't habla enough Mexican)that it's going to be tight about the approval. The new job is supposed to FAX a letter of a job offer including my new salary, and that should erase ANY past questions. Problem is, the boss is short handed, and is running late in his corespondance.

The earliest the house will probably close is about a month- I gave my 2 weeks notice Mon. That's going to be an AWFUL long commute from San Marcos to Castroville twice a day for two weeks, on top of trenching gas lines and climbing poles.

SIIIGGGggghhh , , , the life of an evil rich conservative.
The new unemployment numbers are in, and why aren't the Dems screaming?

I mean it's at frigging 12.6%, where is the outrage?

OHHH, no wonder that number came from Germany, the modern socialists working model.
They really ought to be happy now- last time it was that bad there was another socialist party up and comming.
The National Socialist Party. Had the same love of Jews as (it seems) the growing public opinion. I bet their new 'untermenchen' would gladly help with the Jewish question.
Here's something I like to put in one end of most of my ropes

I like to use a Maidens Eye or Flemish Eye, but the only Flemish eye I could find was for wire rope using a swedge fitting, so this Eye Splice will have to do.

OUCH!
The Little Turtle

A little turtle begins to climb a tree
slowly. After long hours of effort, he
reaches the top, jumps into the air waving
his front legs, until he crashes heavily
into the ground with a hard knock on his
shell. After recovering his consciousness,
he starts to climb the tree again, jumps
again, and knocks the ground heavily again.

The little turtle persisted again and again
while a couple of birds sitting at the edge
of a branch, watched the turtle with pain.
Suddenly the female bird says to the male,
"Hey dear, I think it's time to tell our
little turtle he is adopted".
Test?

Is this posting yet?

Lets go nuke - and I've got an answer for the spent fuel!

I found a new blog, via Machias Privateer, she was talking about a mini nuke plant- seems as if I'd heard about it before, probably in Popular Mechanics?

It's a self contained safe nucleARrrr(Zippo) battery. Toshiba calls it a battery because there are no moving parts.

This new blog gives alot more information about it.

It seems alot safer than our old ones, and even my technically illiterate butt knows it'll be ALOT safer than the Russians'.
It's self contained and about as big as a water tower.
It would be a great thing for Cali, but the enviro wacos would rather see an entire mountain range full of ugly white windmills (that KILL birds) than neighborhood discrete powerplants.

Toshiba offered it to a small town in the Arctic Circle. All this small town of Galena, Alaska has to do is get the DoE to approve it- about 2 years of paperwork and fighting anti-everything envromentalists. Yes I know nothing's 'free" it's to show off the technology, ok.

The thing has an anticipated life of 30 years, and basically no maintenance, since it uses a non-pressurized liquid sodium cooling system, and a "mirror" array to keep the reaction going- something goes wrong, move a "mirror", it'll stop.

Oh, as for the nuclear waste, why not send it into the sun?
-Gets it to a place safe for us.
- The sun won't even feel it- since it'll vaporize long before it hits the surface.
-As an additional plus, since it'll be so comparativly mild, it(ANYTHING we shoot at the sun)will cool it down a little, and help reduce "Global Warming".

Gawd am I brilliant?
Dear Time-Warner,

I know your company is a bunch of Liberal sycophants- but your channel 07 is SUPPOSED to be a TV GUIDE channel. When I go there I want to see what's on your line-up- NOT the Rivers' kissing ass on the Hollywood elete.

I went there SPECIFICALLY so see where the OSCARS were NOT.

I sure am glad the girl I talked to when I moved in here convinced me that not only was I NOT watching Time-Warner, they didn't WANT me to sign up.
Does anybody remember the
shoot-out in Tyler
this week?


Anyone? I'm sure my two loyal readrs do- they're from here (Texas).

It had all the ingredients the MSM wants for an anti-gun story (Angry male, AK-47 *ASSAULT* rifle, dead Ex-wife, dead by-stander, wounded Cops)- EXEPT that it didn't end with the slaughter of any more innocent people.

And it was interrupted by (legally) ARMED citizens.

The Ward Churchill experience- part,,,ummm -whatever

I was just checking out the $10 Mil payoff to Chief Forked-tongue (not true-yet), when I ran accross references to his military experiences.

I "AskedJeeves" about it, and he gave me this from Free Republic .

I haven't been paying alot of attention to it- he's a loudmouth lib who's chickens are finally comming home to roost. I hadn't heard about his 'Nam heroism, tho. Bill Clinton could have used him to buff HIS military record.
The "smartest" thing Cliff EVER said on Cheers!

One afternoon at Cheers, Cliff Clavin was explaining
the buffalo Theory to his buddy Norm. And here's how
it went:
"Well ya see Norm, it's like this....A herd
of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest
buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the
slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed
first. This natural selection is good for the herd as
a whole, because the general speed and health of the
whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of
the weakest members."

"In much the same way, the human brain can only
operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive
intake of alcohol, as we all know, kills brain cells,
but naturally it attacks the slowest and weakest
brain
cells first. In this way, regular consumption of
beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the
brain a faster and more efficient machine. That's why
you always feel smarter after a few beers."
Dean Esmay has a challenge, , ,

He wants you to name any Democratic (a real democracy, not one with Democratic in it's name) that's been in a deep, prolonged famine.

He also says that freedom loving people don't war against each other, or if they do it's not a "bad" war.

If you disageree with those two ideas- name them.

Easy, huh?

THIS goes to show just how good we have it here.

Ok, Lets look at some things logically. If we (the USA, Canada & Europe) had anywhere near as much to worry about as the second, or third world, we wouldn't be up in arms about what GUMMI BEARS look like, or alot of the hysterics from the left. If we didn't have it so good, we'd be worried about
  • a reliable supply of clean water,
  • steady electricity (sorry Cali. you made that problem- doesn't count),
  • mothers dying trying to deliver healthy childrem- not their right to kill them,
  • healthy children being born and living to adulthood.
  • being able to heat our hovel in sub-zero winter.
  • having reliable transportation- not gassing up a HUMMER.
Ok am I wrong? Have we as a First World country got it so good that we've forgotten that life can actually suck so bad that we don't worry about smelling second-hand smoke from a block away?
