You know, those times when you go to the public library and need to bring your exercise bike, because… um, yeah.
Who isn’t looking for a great place to take their kids for endless hours of pleasure?
You see a lot of silly things posted on the environmentally-friendly cork boards in the coffee shops around Boulder. This one caught my eye the other day as being particularly funny. I could just imagine the look of despair on my 11-year-old’s face if I excitedly told her starting Monday she would be pulling someone else’s weeds and learning about things that had absolutely nothing to do with Rihanna, Pretty Little Liars or sugar.
Really? Your Prius is spitting out slightly less greenhouse gas than my 1989 Jeep Cherokee, so you get to streamline your visit to the bank? Considering the environmental cost of producing your little hybrid, buying a car like yours is actually worse for the environment than buying a non-gas guzzling used car. Anyway, it’s pretty easy to disregard signs like these, because despite the occasional dirty look, they are simply unregulated attempts by businesses to make Boulderites feel even more special than they already do.
