"America means having a right to cheap gas without having to say please," said Augusta, GA resident George Rizner, idling in his Hummer H2 in a protest near the Georgia State Capitol. "What are we supposed to do, walk?"

reminds me of a lady I saw while on a ride last week... I'm on my road bike heading down a dead end street where a bike path connects to another street though a stand of woods... the path wasn't cleared of snow so I dismount and carry my bike while slogging through the mid-shin deep snow... up ahead on the street I'm heading toward I notice a garage door go up... out backs a SUV and it rolls down the drive and into the street where it stops in front of the mailbox... I watch as the window goes down and the lady retreives her mail, puts the window up, and then proceeds back up the drive into the garage.... here driveway was maybe 60- 70 feet long or about 10% the length of the path I was slogging through when I witnessed this
