The drive-by (in an SUV, with the A/C blazing and the windows down)) media needs a vacation on Planet Gore.
Well, at the moment the temperature inside my home is 86 degrees. Productivity is out of the question. I have turned on the air conditioner for the first time today, waiting until the peak work hours demand was over and now I am going to cool off to a balmy 78 degrees without guilt. Let those who preach this kind of stuff start first. I’d love to see our wonderful hypocritical celebrities and pundits and assorted whackos start with themselves: Turn off your air conditioners, recycle your autos, retire your hot water heaters and water softeners and refrigerators. Toss out those hair straighteners and blow dryers, forget the irons and computers, microwaves, blenders and toasters. Foreswear airplanes, cruise ships, subways and mass transet. Quit your gyms and health clubs, drain your pools and stay away from all fast foods and restaurants. Return to the life of the caveman or cavewoman and then tell me if it works for you. Bet you couldn’t even survive a week without your conveniences.
