I was sitting in the line at the bank drive-up window today and on the car in front of me was the oddest combination of bumper stickers I've seen.

There were 2 stickers. One said "Help spread the word about Jesus!" and the other said "What part of 'get off my ass' didn't you understand?"

For some reason, I just cracked up at seeing those next to each other :)

Hehe... speaking of odd combos. A friend of mine years ago had a picture from his vacation. For some reason in the background of one of them was a little store with a sign:

Brian's Boat Rental and Mini Golf

I dont know why but that combo still just cracks me up lol...

When I was a kid, I always saw bumper stickers

"<span style="color:blue;">Save Mono Lake</span>"


When I got older and visited.
I honestly did not know what they meant by that.

Fill it or drain it,,,but do something with that cesspool.

Well, not to worry. LA is going to suck it dry.

I'm not sure why you call it as a cesspool though. I can't imagine how you can look at stuff like <a href="http://www.pinkfloyd-co.com/hy/hyb.html" target="top">this</a> and think it resembles a cesspool.

Remember back in Biology or whatever liberal Birkenstock tiedyed classes you had back when you(well I had them) were in high school.?

Remember the whole 'web of life' crap they told you about back then.

"if this little fragile corner of the web gets disturbed then every other creature in the ecosystem will too, blah,blah,blah"

ono Lake has an ecosystem of 4 life forms. 4.

Seagulls who crap in the lake.
Brineshrip who live in the lake and eat the seagull crap and crap in the lake.
Flys who eat the dead brineshrimp and seagull crap and then get eaten by the seagulls and crap in the lake.
And finally four, some alge-bacterio-stench monster which stinks up the whole place but you really never see but I'm sure if it can, it is crapping in the lake.

No fish.
No other birds.
Not even mosquitoes can live in that water.

Ya, pictures are pretty. My advice go there, see(smell) for yourself. Take the kids in bathing suits, beach towels, umbrella, and a picnic basket. Make it a day even.

ps, if they Saved Mono Lake I really think that they mean to fill it. You would not see any of the Tufas if they did. And because the water will still be at saturation level, would still be just as uninhabitable for wildlife(as it was before it was drained).

Does the Mono in Mono Lake stand for Mono-nucleosis? As in "You will get MONO-nucleosis in this LAKE if you bathe in it"??

:P

I've been there many times and I'll be there again in a week. I camp just north of the lake and hike around the edges. My advice to you would be to go back and take another look. In any case, it's not like there isn't a cesspool at the opposite end of the aqueduct from the lake.

I just want a bumper sticker "Hang up and drive."

Everyone I see now who is a horrible driver is usually blabbing on a cell-phone.

That's no lie. In the past month, I've had 4 really, really close calls. In every case, the person who pulled out in front of me was talking on their phone.

I'm on the road a lot, so I see a lot of strange things. Worst I saw was a lady driving about 5 mph under the speed limit (65mph on the highway here in Kansas). I got a chance to pass, so I did. As I went around, I saw she had a laptop computer open on her passenger seat, was talking on her phone and had a paperback book propped up on the steering wheel. Jeez!
