Want Fries With That?

by Matt Coker

Listen up: the Orange County grand jury came out five weeks ago with 
a report that blamed restaurant grease for dirty beaches. The 
reasoning: sewer lines are so choked with greasy buildup that the 
shit that's supposed to flow through clogs up, shoots out of manhole 
covers and oozes into creeks, rivers and storm drains that empty into 
the ocean. Cut to Sacramento, where, in the wake of the energy 
crisis, Governor Gray Davis just issued an executive order allowing 
diesel-powered generators to be used in the event of electrical 
blackouts. Meanwhile, various entrepreneurs want to convert grease 
into diesel fuel. Such greasy diesel burns cleaner and fills the air 
with the pleasing aroma of McDonald's French fries. So we can hook 
the pumps right up to Mickey D's, reduce our reliance on fossil 
fuels, stave off the energy crisis, clean the beaches and fill the 
air with the pleasing aroma of McDonald's French fries?! 24-7?! 
Biodiversity rocks! Of course, someone's gotta, uh, crap on the whole 
thing. The California Public Interest Research Group (CALPIRG) on May 
24 damned Davis for choosing diesel over cleaner alternatives. They 
apparently have a problem with diesel fumes causing death. Are you 
damn hippies paying attention? THE PLEASING AROMA OF MCDONALD'S 
FRENCH FRIES!!

ON SECOND THOUGHT . . . CALPIRG took Springfield Nuclear Power Plant 
owner Monty Burns and his bundles of cash to Century City and 
Sacramento this week so he could thank George Dubya Bush for whoring 
nukes. All is forgiven, CALPIRG.
