11 Blades

Feb. 18, 2006 - The Roads are awash with the Hummer (H3)

I guess it's still winter in Vancouver.

I had to be late in the city last night and noticed a real lack of P-Cars on the streets.....but eveywhere I looked the sedate and inoffensive paved thoroughfares of the city were being mashed under the offroad tires of H3s.

The bloody things really were everywhere, slowly prowling from bagel shop to bar to upscale boutique in some kind of choreographed dance of the big wallet morons.

What are their stockbroker/lawyer/junior exec drivers thinking?

Do they worry that society will crumble over the course of one long 3 Martini lunch and that they will have to convoy their way out of a broken city, forced to take to the creek beds to find their way over gravelly hills to safety?

Isn't a military derivative for a family car kind of stupid in a cobblestone and brie filled downtown core?

At least I get to rip home on a freeway, or a twisty secondary highway, so that my car gets to do, each and every day, exactly what it was designed to do.
