Conversely anyone who drives a car for any reason is an obese couch potato too lazy to club baby seals themselves.

I am bemused that my little joke thread has been resurrected after two months, long after the over-wrought posting that I was parodying has slipped over the horizon. Nice to see that most took it in the spirit intended, and that our moderator, tractorlegs, has a sense of humor, as my own has gotten me into trouble here before.

No worries...I only rarely get an inspiration to stir the pot, and am too busy these days to follow A&S much anyway. Those baby seals aren't going to club themselves!
