Ladies, ladies... stop fighting over me. Just post your pics and I'll decide which one of you gets me. No need for this vicious cat fight business and unless said fight involves no shirts and a kiddie pool full of ky, it's usually a turn off anyways.

We love our plants and trees. They're great for the environment. To keep them that way I use lots and lots of water from the underground aquifer, just like my neighbors. I also use a ton of RoundUp to keep the weeds at bay. I don't want them killing any of the useful trees.

I use a bunch of fertilizer, too. Got to keep those plants healthy and green. I'm not too worried about the runoff because we've got too many darned fish in this world anyway.

We got rid of the H2 to get a more fuel effecient truck. Yep, honestly. Our Yukon gets about half a MPG better than a stock H2. Now we drive the heck out of the Yukon because we feel good about it now. Heck, we only drove the H2 about 7k miles a year, but that feel-good Yukon is going to get about 15k on it this year. Oh wait, that doesn't work out to a savings does it? That's ok, I can be a poser and feel good.

I put some of those flourescent bulbs in some of our lights. Now I run them all the time. Sometimes I accidently leave and incandescent bulb or two on overnight, but that's ok, right?

Hey, I'm trying and I feel good. All you enviro-haters be damned.

Now excuse me, I have to cut my lawn with our fuel effecient rider. We have a nickname for the mower, Old Smokey.

Thanks for the idea. Diesel is a hell-of-alot cheaper, too.
