China gets Hummer
Fiendishly well-suited to each other. Reminds me of the bride of Frankenstein.
Except Elsa Lanchester was sorta cute.
Hummers are not.
Check out comments to Mike Thompson's excellent cartoon at Detroit Free Press.
We see way too many Hummers on the road here, where the west begins and fantasies persist. I remember seeing my first stretch hummer coming out of a hockey game in Dallas several years ago. Yeah, wretched excess is redefined.
Back home in El Paso a couple years ago I saw no Hummers on the road (as a POV--that's Personally Owned Vehicle in army-speak). Maybe that's because the real HumVees are at Ft Bliss. It would be so embarrassing to be a civilian driving a Hummer and playing your army fantasies in El Paso, when the real and deadly serious army lives there, too.
Well, you'd think.
