no no NO!
you get yourself about 15 turtles and stack them on top of each other. throw a saddle on the topmost turtle and ride the stack. rrrriiiiiiiddddeee ttthhhheeeee sssssttttaaaaaaacccckkkkk. when the lowest turtle gets tired of walking, you move it to the top, put the saddle on it, and keep riding. repeat until you get to work. turtles live like 100+ years. beat that, phil wood.
