I drive an SUV everyday to work . How about you? Do you drive or take public transportation?
I love my SUV - I have a Honda Pilot - it is a great familiy vehicle.
Does that get good gas mileage? It's nice having that extra room but it would be a bummer if it was a gas guzzler. | Gas-guzzler
A gas-guzzler, in informal language, is a vehicle that is perceived to consume a lot of fuel.
The term originally came into use in the US when Congress established Gas Guzzler Tax provisions in the Energy Tax Act of 1978 to discourage the production and purchase of fuel-inefficient vehicles. The gas guzzler tax had applied only to cars (not trucks) and was collected by the IRS. Other countries have followed suit and introduced their own version of a gas-guzzler tax such as | stations pass on their cost to the drivers. So drivers actually bear the cost of carbon pricing, and that is as it should be, because driving is the real reason for the emissions.
But economics does not view this as a moral matter. Rather, economics points out that when the cost goes up, if drivers do not find driving their SUV (for example) worth the extra cost, they will switch and drive their sports car, ride their bike or take public transportation. And that is the point | 4,996 | wow-train |
Who cares if people say World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) is fake. That's not the point. So your favorite TV show is acting, too. You still like it, right? I'm glad it came about in 1952.
I agree, its called Entertainment for a reason. Who is your favorite wrestler of all time?
I was a fan of Bret "The Hitman" Hart, myself. But for the WWE and wrestling as a whole, I love that even though it's entertainment-based and there are choreographed matches, they're still chock full of moves where if the performers don't do them right, they can get seriously injured. It takes a lot of heart.
I agree, I bet it takes a lot passion too.

The company's global headquarters is located in Stamford, Connecticut, with offices in major cities across the world.
As in other professional wrestling promotions, WWE shows are not legitimate contests, but purely entertainment-based, featuring storyline-driven, scripted, and choreographed matches, though matches often include moves that can put performers at risk of injury, even death, if not performed correctly | because of who you are. I wouldn't say that we're famous… we are just normal people that get put on TV and stuff. That is just who we are… so if that makes us famous like the E! Entertainment crap, that's not us. People want to see you in that part and think you are rich, and they start to come out of the wood work…and they start asking for things over and over again, and that song's about just taking it too far. | 4,997 | wow-train |
I really fancy a burrito! | Burrito
A burrito (, ) is a dish in Mexican and Tex-Mex cuisine that consists of a flour tortilla with various other ingredients. It is wrapped into a closed-ended cylinder that can be picked up, in contrast to a taco, where the tortilla is simply folded around the fillings. The tortilla is sometimes lightly grilled or steamed to soften it, make it more pliable, and allow it to adhere to itself when wrapped. A wet burrito, however, is covered in sauce and is therefore generally | those other really good guys play the fancy stuff!" Stone then asked Wallis about the importance of this aspect of playing in the current musical climate, with so many drum clinics taking place. Wallis stated, "It's a very precarious subject really...Not for me. It doesn't work for me, 'cause I've never enjoyed that aspect of drumming at all.

I really like to travel to new places! How about you?
I do love to travel! Have you ever wondered where the word 'travel' comes from? Its most likely lost in history.
That is an interesting question. Where does the word come from? When was the first recorded time it was used?
I see some information from the webster dictionary that the first known use of the word was around the 14th century.
Wow! In what context was it being used and from what country?
That word comes from middle english which means to torment kabor or strive/jourmey.
Fascinating! The origins of words have always intrigued me! | ' Tales (2004)", the words "travel" and "travail" both share an even more ancient root: a Roman instrument of torture called the "tripalium" (in Latin it means "three stakes", as in to impale).
