Funny drunkblogging SOTU commentary from Stephen Green: Here he comes. Eyes wide open for the first time in months, spring in his step… he's wired to the tits on whatever they have him on. Wow.

I love my monster truck. It's big. It's spacious. It rides smooth. But it also loves it's gas. I went through a period where I figured I could lower my gas bill by buying a small beater.
