Thread: Eco nonsense

    Default Eco nonsense

    In the US we have members of Congress, similar to your MP.

    Sonny Bono, Cher's ex-husband was a congressman whos district included Palm Springs, CA. He was tragically killed when while skiing, he crashed into a tree some years ago.

    This past weekend, driving back from the NASCAR race in Phoenix, a sign on the back window of a hard top Jeep read:

    Sonny Bono
    My kind of tree hugger

    I laughed out loud. SWMBO didn't think that it was THAT funny, but then our politics are a bit different.

    He wasn't a main street politician really.

    He was in more of splinter group.

    Geeze, wooden that hurt.
    At least the tree is still rooted to the spot.....just like Mr. Bono is r***ed.
    Of course I'm brave, I'm afraid of NO man, and only a few women.
