My New Car

I just bought a new car. Actually no I didn’t, but if this car was available in the United States, I would for sure purchase it. Not only as a way to save money, but as a way to get back at the gas companies who are really screwing over America. Mike was talking about changing some driving habits, so I wanted to talk about how I would try to improve mine.

A billion is a difficult number to comprehend, but one advertising agency did a good job of putting that figure into some perspective in one of it’s releases. 

  1. A billion seconds ago it was 1959.
