The Hill-A-Copter

On the same day we learn of the inevitable return of storied Democratic field man Michael Whouley--credited with helping to rescue past foundering establishment figures Al Gore and John Kerry--we also learn that Hillary will tour Iowa in a helicopter

Coincidence? Probably not. Four years ago it was Whouley who brought us the exciting "Kerry-Copter." (Face it, candidates, you're nothing these days without your own chopper.)

P.S. The Hill-A-Copter is not to be confused with the Hellacopters

So much for green campaigning.  Do you know what the fuel efficiency on a helicopter is?  

Can a helicopter run on ethanol?

The Hellacopters!  Nice plug for a very fine rock 'n roll band.  I was stunned to learn they had so many albums out considering how raw their sound is.  But that's a good thing.
