My animal humanity

This summer, like previous summers.. I will do several things that will re-orient my living experience

1. I will drop my slacks and piss where I want!

2. I will plant thousands of baby trees that will grow and nurture life!

3. I will skinny dip in every body of clear water deeper than my ankles!

4. When possessed, I will howl my call of the wild with no restrain!

5. I will sleep in a tent for as long as I can FOR as long as I can!

6.I will have the carbon footprint of a earthworm!

Come along, if you want...

If by "grow and nurture life", you mean, get cut down in the pursuit of profit, then you're right.

As for the carbon footprint - remember those diesel generators running 24/7?

Hey Paddy, If you must de-romanticize my attempt at being way cooler than I actually am, then you are right. the flip side is quite noxious...

1. Every time I drop my pants, a few thousand mosquitoes will bite my balls off.
2. The trees will get cut down for profit and are in fact quite harmful to the ecosystem as they are genetically bred to be pesticide resistant and sprayed quite heavily
3. The water that I will try and swim in will be way sub-zero and I will get hypothermia and bronchitis
4. A bear or a poisonous spider will probably decide to sleep in the tent with me
5. And I will probably end up buying an SUV with the money that I make from planting.

I don't believe you. I don't believe you for a second.
