For My Birthday I Would Like A McMansion And A Hummer H1.

May 21st, 2008 • Related • Filed Under

Today marks my 36th year on this here planet earth and I have decided that since we only get to live once, I would like to buy a McMansion in a McSubdivision, buy myself a 11 MPG Hummer, get as many articles of clothing made by children in sweatshop factories in China somewhere, and I want to eat as many pesticide-covered pieces of fruit I can find. It’s my birthday and I am entitled to these things, right?

:-)

I think instead I will use my gift certificate from my brother for a new pair of Simple Shoes, made from hemp and organic cotton with PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate - recycled soda bottles) laces and pedbeds and an outsole made from old car tires. Have a great day everyone, I am headed out to the park today to try to relax a bit!

    Happy Birthday David!
    11 mpg, is that the hybrid version?
    LOL! GM is supposed to be coming out with a hybrid Hummer. Somehow those two words just don’t go together, sorta like watermelon and mustard. But if they can build a great big machine that gets 50 mpg…I might be interested, except that it will cost $95,000.

    Hope you have the best Birthday ever…and at least 100 more in the greatest of health!

    It might be Ron! I am thinking that after we finish our move to NM, I might pick up as our second car a big diesel pickup truck that I can run on used veggie oil - at least then I am not using “new” gas! That way we can have a big truck while not using gas…:-)

    Thanks Ron for your kind wishes
