How about this: "I own a Hummer just because I can." Does that strike you
as a good idea, since this country really does need to lower its demand
for oil? Or, is this not your country?
I have to admit, a Hummer is where I draw the line. I support everyone's
freedom of choice to buy what excites them, but for the life of me I don't
understand the fascination with a 1500 GM pickup truck chassis and a
military, "Terminator" sheet metal body. Reminds me of those toys the kids
play with --- "Transformers" or something like that .... the ones that you
pull on the doors or whatever and it turns into a Robot.

I agree, aside from being butt ugly, they are too wide and
unmaneuverable for todays parking lots and streets. I watched some fool
with his penis, I mean Hummer trying to park at an office complex. He
was there when I got there, I parked, got my briefcase out of the back,
while talking on my cell phone, and he was still parking when I went in!
Yeah, but weren't all the girls standing around his Hummer, just waiting
for him to get out so they could ogle his manliness?

Uh, yeah...sure..... He probably doesn't have much in the pants to
ogle....hence the Hummer!
Hey, bk! It took this time. Thanks!
