Desert Crimes

May 14, 2001

I've had it up to here with these wackos that think beautification is changing the way the natural environment looks.  A town named Palmdale located northeast of Los Angeles has some guy who is gun-ho on cleaning up the neighborhood and is asking people to either grow a lawn or get green painted rocks.

Now this is totally absurd.  Look at where they are located.  In the "HIGH DESERT"!  Not much grows in the desert.  It takes some water.  The last I checked the desert doesn't get much water from rain, so this guy must be asking for people to pay through the nose to have water delivered so they can make their yards green.

Hey, idiot, why not ask these people to throw out their old couches instead of asking them to stop growing weeds.  That is where the beauty of the land is being disturbed.  It's called trash.  Oh the causes for which people stand!
