I know this isn't a Sir Mix-A-Lot thread but I am laughing so hard.

On the wedding congrats thread, I almost asked if Kevy had played 'Baby Got Back' but I thought, 'Nah...'

And, CP, yes, you are right, he does not condone being overweight. He clearly states he wants women properly proportioned to their height...as long as the butt is big and round.

Back on topic, I've heard that carrying around a bunch of crap in your car is bad for your gas mileage. Damn. So you mean I can't leave the 50lbs of dogfood and two cases of water in the back until we need to use them?

ha! well, considering 2 of my 3 vehicles get < 10mpg...Im not too terribly worried about y'all carrying a pound or two extra in your trunk. anything youre saving, Im burning at 5 times the rate. :evil:

so....carry on.

What have you got?

1 450+ cid hotrod (my baby)
1 full size PU/hauler
1 V6 mustang.

kinda sad when the mustang is actually the econo-box.

I'm going to buy some Chevron stock :)

My name is Sir-Mix-A-Lot, and I approve this message.

Because Cosmo says you're fat...and I ain't down with that.

According to the U.S. Department of Energy the average American uses 500 gallons of gas per year. We all know that there are currently very close to exactly 300,000,000 Americans.

That is 150,000,000,000. In other words 150 billion gallons of gas. 1 billion doesn't seem that big of a deal (when in addition to the extra 24 pounds so many people are driving 1,000 pounds more vehicle than they need).

On an individual level that would be using 500 gallons instead of 496.6.

Kinda car where if you don't turn off the engine when your pumping fuel the engine will run out of gas:D

Just don't Google "Big Butts". Trust me......:blush:

Besides, I thought that was an Eddie Murphy song (Shrek).;)

Another thing, when I first heard this, I thought "Trunk" refered to the trunk of the car. Is 24 lbs making that much of a difference? Can we clean out our cars and carry 24 lbs. less junk in the trunk? Just a thought.

Well, so did I. {the trunk} I really just read an article on Yahoo!

And, don't look up 'Peeping Tom'. That is a group I was trying to find on line and let's just say I gave up. I asked at work and they didn't know so I asked them what ever help they could give because I couldn't google it. At all.
