52. He should have said we didn't have the will |
|
And we still don't. People are grousing about high gas prices and when will the price of gas come back down to $1.50 a gallon. Those days are gone and it's wasted energy to try and return there. We should be focusing our energy on that which can make an immediate impact and that which all of us can do - conservation. Drive less. Park and walk. Use mass transit in the city.

One time when McKellan was on, Bill was interviewing some right wing nut job who was raging about how we shouldn't allow gays to marry.
After the interview, Ian said she was such a lovely lady to be so nuts in the head!!
It was great!! I loved his comment because that woman truly was insane!!
