My daily commute brings me past the local Hummer dealership... and today we had a nice little & spontaneous Hybrid parade. In front of me was a Hybrid Civic and behind me was an Insight...and two cars behind the Insight was another Prius!

I tend to see one other Prius a week driving around. So this isn't exactly Hybrid city... and I found it amusing.

How could you see the dealership through all of the SMOG created by its vehicles?!

I wish I only saw one Hybrid a week! Here in Los Angeles I see one a minute!

SMOG?

Could it be SMUG instead?

I see a lot of hummers around here, as you might expect. Once in a while, an H1, mostly H2s with an increasing number of H3s. Sometimes, I got several days without seeing another Prius and other days, I see several. The hummers, though, I see all the time.

Not too terribly insider...That one gets tossed at me all the time when people see/hear about my car...and I've never had the patience to watch the show, but it's kinda osmotic, the way that stuff seeps around like, well, like smog...

But I do like the song Blame Canada! (And some of my best friends are Canadian. Click the image to open in full size. (I lived in Montreal from when I was 8 until I was 19, so I'm ALLOWED the occasional bash!)

Get a grip doc, or at least put a down payment on a sense of humor...
