    I guess I should point out that Snapper lawnmowers are made in the USA. Not Mexico, not Canada... small-town Georgia.

    What I found most telling about the piece is the graphic for the following story "Steelcase - Cuts". It's so nice to have a feel good fluff piece to lead into another story about people losing their jobs.

    Neat story. After all, it's nice being nice. Saw that on a bumpersticker on a Prius.

    Next week, Snapper checks his voice mail and hears, "Hey Mike, Mulally here. Thanks again for buying that Fusion Hybrid. You really helped me out of a jam here. Listen, do you wanna hang out or something? You know, maybe get some beers or go bowling. Seriously, I'm pretty lonely."


    A week later, "Hey Mike, Mulally here. I guess you're not returning my calls. I've left you like, I don't know, like 12 messages. You're probably one of those busy, on the go types. So... um... anywaaaays, if you wanna hang out, I picked up chips and salsa. Maybe we can watch the Pistons game. So yeah, call me. Later bro."

I miss your cute glasses. I miss the way you breathe into the phone after you end your sentences. Let's go somewhere together. Somewhere where we can get lost and gaze into each other's eyes and be alone together. I don't know what to do when I'm not around you. You complete me, Mike. Please give me a call back."

    @Cognitive Friction: Before, he'd use that as an excuse to actually fly over to have sex with you, but after that congressional fiasco, he's not allowed anywhere near private jets, and commoners' jets just won't do after a night of hot sweaty sex. I hear that that's what he used to do at Boeing. Heck, I heard that he joined Boeing specifically for that reason.

    Wouldn't it be more productive to call people who had not already bought a Ford?

    Reminds me of the time Michael Moore challenged the heads of the big three to change the oil in a car. I think Trotman was the only one to do it.

    @tiberiuswise: Why would anyone do what Michael Moore tells you to do. Like pretending that the crap he makes is a valid use of film, nevermind a "documentary".

    @Pessimippopotamus Parkingtonius: I love it when he asks politicians if they would enlist their children in the armed forces.


    Last I check, Michael, people old enough to join the armed forces had free will.


    Incidentally, that free will is provided by your friends in the armed forces.
