I count trees. For the government. I now know trees like Vanna White knows the alphabet, and you have the stimulus bill to thank for it.

agreed. I think if you owned a Mini you would also be followed around by an excellent soundtrack for the rest of your life (for the same reasons). especially if ever in a train tunnel.
