Cook's non-polluting bike trip yesterday was to buy clothes (he only had two pairs of work-suitable pants, both of which have comically worn patches on the butt from his bike seat) and groceries. He could have walked, actually, given that the trip was only maybe 3 miles round-trip, but he had limited time and anyway you don't get funny wear patches on your butt by WALKING everywhere.

Cook suggested to Skipper that if she want to make a difference for the environment, she should stop eating dairy, and it was pretty clear from the look on her face that she doesn't care about polar bears THAT much.

phew. three miles is good. partially because we're living in a not-very-efficient city, where there are business district deserts, there's nothing like clothes to buy within at least six miles of my house (except walmart), and no bike lanes to speak of. i could ride on the roads, in a lane of traffic, but i'm still too chicken. no bike lanes here means not very much patience for or respect for bicyclers yet. working on the acquiring bike lanes thing (slowly).
