Editor’s Note: This month the banner of the Little Man
makes sense. We used to be unsure about our Texas circulation, mainly
because we constantly remind them that Montana has way more surface
area than Texas and if you were to flatten out Montana's mountains, the
Big Sky would dwarf the Lone Star. But perhaps now is not the time to
bring that up because Mike seems
to have struck a chord with our Texas readers in his piece, “ While I appreciate your concerns (why else would I even have been on your website), I was deeply angered by Mike Roselle's comments about Houston and its people. I am proud to live in this great city, and I will not back down on my love for it. Considering
his irrational
hatred of my city, his wish that we be obliterated because of
our oil
makes me very angry. We are not all millionaire oil tycoons in
this
city. We're a city of workers and families, and we love our
city.
You can go be self-righteous with your kind in Mike’s Humor Lifts Soggy Spirit Thanks for making me laugh. I like your attitude! I feel like my spirit has been dampened by all the bad news lately. Maybe a river ride would be just the thing. I hope I don't have to wait 11 years, though. Unless Sincerely, Sam Smith www.samsmithart.com Mike’s Jab At Houston Raise Local Ire Katmanl50 Another Amused Texan “If there is one thing more frightening than a category five hurricane barreling down on you, it’s the sight of two-and-a-half million Texans driving north with their pets.” Thank you for the much-needed laugh-out-loud-spit-my-coffee-on-the-monitor moment! ”I have to admit, sometimes I do get a little religious, and I was actually praying for the hurricanes to stay away from New Orleans and hit Houston instead.” No, no! Keep Texans IN where to stay away from. My God, can you imagine the rest of the country being saddled with 2 and a half million Texans moving into the neighborhood? Give us more Louisianans any day. Marie Cain Born-Again Lowbagger Mike, Greetings from a fellow Lowbagger, though I hadn’t heard that term before. I never thought of myself as a slacker, exactly, though I do plenty of it. No, Lowbagger it just feels better As
a born and raised as a 7th generation Austinite, I’ve lived
from the
still quaint days to here near the end. Sad to think the wild country
my
forebears came to is almost used up, but then You
might want to peek at some of my stuff posted at axisoflogic.com, where
the
following still is posted, I think, but it is germane to your great
take on Best
in Bad Times, Phil
Toler So, like how did you get your wife to forgive you? If I told mine to kiss off, I'd have a couple of big blows on track pretty quickly. Yours, Dennis Sherbanuk P.S.
We have both big oil and big coal haunting us like goblins. It's
a
cluster. Hello, We in the The stuff is far too valuable a resource to burn, anyway. My friends certainly suffer no hardship driving as fast as they want in small diesel cars of a certain age which are doing 65 mpg ( English gallons, not your teen weeny things ). Come to think of it, $5 may be about right. I can not understand the American urge to bring forward the date of running out. No more plastic bags to use in supermarkets nobody can get to, and only local produce. International trade? A memory. A much bigger challenge to the world as we know it than even global warming, and the global cooling which is destroying Of course the biggest thing of the lot is the coming bird flue mutation which could restore the world's population to almost manageable proportions by halving it. Trouble is that includes ME. Governments fiddle delicately with the problem as if there is time available, and it is worth only small expenditure. When it hits it will make the occupation of irrelevant and expensive luxury when there is a real problem to face and no time to deal with it as the funds were spent elsewhere than in preparation. It is the biggest problem, so demands the most urgent treatment with ALL the expenditure available even at the expense/ deferment of other apparently important programs.
