How'd you get that for free?

No sweetie, it's the law. And besides that, where do you think the money comes from to set aside the parks we climb in? The roads we drive on? The schools we go to? The libraries we borrow from? The skateparks for kids? And on and on. If you don't want to pay to be a part of society, fine. But then don't use ANY of the benefits that people get as a result of paying taxes.

I, too, am happy to see more habitats protected (although I don't consider managed logging as a threat, I do agree that much of our land is under too much stress to stay healthy). I sort of think that your first concern, the ad hoc management, attenuates your second concern--outlawing activities. If they don't patrol it, they won't ticket it. Of course, this still causes issue for law abiding citizens. Having tootled around in this area a bit, I am happy to say that one can indeed hike, climb, and fish in the area as is. However, there is a great deal of wildlife, generally the kind people don't like to run into. I wonder what would happen to this wildlife if we were to build trails, have a bunch of people back there, ride bikes and whatnot back there. I bet you the first person who gets fido killed by a big cat will throw a fit and have a million signs put up (like those ridiculous signs at Smith. Come on!). I didn't used to feel like this, but the older I get and the more I see the more I think its fine to have land set aside that is simply not that accessible. If you can get through the land on your own two feet, well, more power to you. If you can't, tough shit. I know that may sound elitist or uncaring or non-inclusionary, but that's the direction I am starting to go in.

I've been thinking. And I realized that we need sprayers like this to stay. Why? Well, there are some uses for them. For example: Parking your car on them. Sending them to war so they get killed instead of real people. Medical testing (they're stupid like animals; just knock them out and give them a shot.. they won't know what happened) Using them for ammo. We should pack them into missiles and launch them over towards Iraq. The stupidity is potent enough to make any enemy surrender. Target practice. Hamburgers (They want to be in touch with nature, so what better way than to be digested and used as fertilizer?) Decorations. Add color to your yard with a few idiots impaled on your fence (Dracula style). Idiots make great scapegoats. Bad day at work? Famine? Plague? Cancer? Blame it on the idiots. They are always good for kicking. They are fun to tease (good for laughs when you're bored) Raw sewage storage (doughheads will eat anything). Idiots, especially drunk idiots, are flamable and make for great campfire fuel. They are great for mixing with cement and throwing off bridges. I am sure there are a lot more fun, practical, and useful suggestions out there. These are just a few. I like to stay on the sunny side of life.

As long as there is a bar involved, I'm happy.

What mixed feelings do you have? I certainly harbor some good and bad feelings toward the whole thing myself. But then, I am directly affected by it, so I might have a little more grumbling than the next guy.

I just can't keep up with kids these days.

seacock of course. or is that one of the other two?

I couldn't get past the guy walking toward me in the beginning of the video. I love horror films, but that was just too much.

I ask them what makes them think I'm grown up.

I took a dream job in L.A. I hated L.A. so bad I left. I have less tolerence for a shitty place to live than a shitty place to work. I have never lived in Boston--so that might be a great place to live. But if it ain't you may want to choose wisely grasshoper.

As do mushrooms, freedom, and good coffee I guess.

Take the job. Unless you are in aerospace, IT, or Biotech--then move to Seattle and get a job here.

And whatever you do, be sure to go commando.
