SUVs

Edinaites always amaze me with their SUVs. I'm driving home from work on France, and it's at least 150 in the shade, and there ain't much shade. (I've got the top off). France after crosstown allows cars to park on the side, or at least it does for much of the way. I'm driving along with the traffic flow, about ten miles an hour over the posted limit when an SUV roars past on the right. Up ahead a couple of kids are riding bikes on the side of the road, so what does the SUV driver do? Blow the horn, of course, and the kids race into a gas station to get out of the idiot's way.

We hate them. I want to key them. Or blow them up.

This is why I had the machine guns behind the headlights of my Aston-Martin removed. As Chris Rock might say, "you'd like to... but you can't!"

And I'll bet you a doughnut the SUV driver was on his cellphone yammering about derivatives to his broker.

Global warming, heat, road rage, speed, pollution, vicious circle.

I'm investing in environmental companies. And oil stocks, to be on the safe side. :)
