Fossil Fuels are good for the environment

Green. It is everywhere. The EU wants to give all individuals a carbon footprint allowance and penalize people for consuming more. That is an exaggeration but that is the way it is going.

Oil is a brilliant energy. It is cheap to extract and is used to make cars go over 200mph. It has transformed our worlds so we can buy crappy iPhone 4s and make love using latex condoms. Oil has been used on great paintings and helps create electricity.

You see all these windfarms and bio fuels and hydrogen cells are expensive and more polluting than oil.

I know nothing about the green agenda but it seems to me it is becoming like IT. Lots of acronyms and complexities and lead by people who like skateboarding. Which means the green thing is the next black thing. Green 2.0. Bubble. Bust.

At the local swimming pool canteen, not realising until afterwards that my penis was caught in the elastic of my swimming shorts with the tip sticking out, I purchased a packet of twisties and a can of coke before asking out the girl who served me but she said no.
