Everything is just getting to me lately, I think I need a vacation.

This is what bugged me last night.

I saw a commercial last night saying that SUVs support terrorism.

OH. MY. GOD.

Their logic was that since SUVs use more gas then we have to buy more oil from terror-supporting nations.

This is getting ridiculous. You can say anything supports terrorism. India has harbored suspect wanted in connection with acts of terror. They grow cotton in India. T-shirts support terrorism!!!!!

Any time they say something frivilous causes terrorism it lessens the impact of telling people what really does support it.

I just need to stop watching TV.

Or take some time off.

Do you also hear voices when you're alone?

I'm never alone if the voices are with me.

Dude, you're right. You do need a vacation.

May I venture to suggest the Carribbean?

This time of the year its nice.

Yeah, claiming that SUV's support terrorism is just some activists feeble attempt shout from their soapbox.

Throw in a few extra seats, some plush upholstery, and a cap with windows, and Joe the construction worker's Ford F-150 is magically transformed into a gas gussling menace to public safety, not to mention that Joe is now suddenly supporting terrorists.... hogwash

Living in north of florida promotes terrorism.

If you chose to live in the north. That is to say above the equator by more than 20 degrees you promote terrorism.

To live in new york is criminal behavior and to live in canada is even worse.

The fuel associated with heating and electricity caused by the increased darkness half the year is proven to cost more than living in the Caribbean. The limited land masses lower the needs for transportation, the relatively compfortable temperatures require little if any heat or cooling.

Living in New York requires climate control both winter and summer. Living in the US provides more land mass so travel is increased. Add to that the fact that taxi cabs in NYC are all V8's and the average speed limit is 25 mph and the average speed is well below that. What the hell do you need a big taxi with huge engine if you are going to be going that slow.

The subways run whether they have a full load or not. They should be limited to full loads. count the people on each platform on a run and then decide if the run should begin. This will help remove money from the terrorists.
