Sherwood "the pork" Pensinger announces he is tearing down his backyard deck and pool at 35* Dyckman street, Peekskill, and opening the area to the public as a community garden. He invites all his neighbors to drop in any time, day or night, and remove a few boards from the deck, and plant vegetables, as they see fit. He is also turning in his "Yard Fart" license plates to DMV, and filling up his little white car with topsoil, to grow garbanzo beans for his lucky neighbors.(His wife needs her car, to drive to work)That leaves exactly one(1) per household. Since his large victorian house is much too underutilized, he is requesting any Guatemalans newly arrived in Peekskill, to consider dropping in, and taking over one or more of his bedrooms, gratis, forever. Next month he will begin planting grass on his roof, to offset his concrete driveway and steps. Of course, this will require at least a foot of topsoil on the roof first, so he is looking for volunteers, mainly from the out-of-work illegal alien crew that plays soccer all day in the basketball court up the street. He might not have to actually DO any of this, simply because a certain local power plant which we will not name, with a carbon footprint of zero or less, is powering his area with no carbon emissions at all, allowing Sher & Pina to be a little extravagant. Of course, he can't reply right now, because his arm's in a cast. But just like the overfull port-o-san, when you're full of doo-doo, it's best to keep the lid shut anyway, right? Look on the bright side, though. There's a growing list of people who think his HEAD should be in a cast! Actually, his best global-warming avoidance contribution would probably be to rent out the house, and get an apartment down on Fordham road, where wifey works, thus saving mucho carbon footprint. Make Sense?
