As part of the hippieflage on the Subie, I cynically sprang for the special Indiana "Environment" license plate, partly out of fear that they'd issue one anyway because clapped-out green Forester and partly because I found out part of the proceeds go to helping DNR arrange deer culls, but I was wrong to be cynical about the power of wishing really hard about environment-type things. Look! The license plate worked! The seas are receding even as we speak!
The snow on the bumper gives it a badonkadonk look too.
ReplyDeleteWha? Out loud? Sorry.
Where's Owl Gore??
ReplyDeleteWho turned on the ice cream machine in Hossier City???
ReplyDeleteI've been dodging the snow and ice for the last couple of weeks. I'll be going around the Indy freeway loop on my way elsewhere today. I'll keep an eye out for a green Subaru.
ReplyDeleteAl Gore will be on TV shouting the Groundhog must die.

Yeah, enough with Winter already. It makes range time less enjoyable.
ReplyDeleteWe Spring forward so there's sufficient after work daylight and now it's miserably cold.
I get cold just looking at that. I'm moving to heat and exothermicity.
ReplyDeleteMy Escape has a similar look this ayem. Thank goodness my commute is only about 15 feet and all indoors on carpet.
ReplyDeleteWyoming is spreading.
ReplyDeleteYou will have to start digging scorpion pits now.
Jeeze, and here I am still waiting for a range report on the shotgun w/Magpul furniture. Tell Mother Nature to knock it off, would ya?
ReplyDeleteIf you are willing to pay a carbon tax, Al Gore will make all that nasty snow go away
ReplyDeleteGood thing you didn't get the special Obama plate, or the Subie'd be beneath a glacier by now.
ReplyDeleteHmmm, is that multiple accidental discharges, or looking to add a father?
ReplyDeleteWow, talk about adaptive camo!
Global warming and more snow is not inconsistent Higher average temperatures mean more moisture in the atmosphere.

Anonymouse 2:51,
ReplyDeleteI am certain that the climate is changing. It always has been, so it would be a bit weird if it stopped.
I am also fairly certain that human beings have had an effect on the Earth's climate. We've been homosapiensforming the planet for... what? Twelve thousand years now?
I just question how much Late 20th Century Western Consumer Self-Loathing has really affected the global climate vis a vis, say, millennia of goats eating every plant in the Levant, or solar output.
Human Caused Global Wetness?
ReplyDeleteGerry
Amen,Tam.
ReplyDeleteOnly a fool wouldn't believe anthroposculpting has an effect and more of us means more effect, but only a bigger fool subscribes to the "sky is falling" mentality that simultaneously ignores all the inputs far more powerful, lasting, and cyclic than a large troop of baboons rubbing sticks together.
Meanwhile up in the Great White North it's 40 degrees and almost 100% green outside.
ReplyDeleteWhat you mean, "global warming", Paleface?
ReplyDeleteImpressive. But pretty sure we gotchya beat, after our dump last night.
ReplyDeleteLion and Lamb out of order up here, too.
Not that anybody in the national press gives a wit about us :-(
Hey, and in the summer, by actual eyewitness reports, those environmental vanity plates keep elephants from roosting in the trees.
ReplyDeleteYou could look it up.
