And since it's a free country (until Obama gives more of it away), I will use whatever identifiers I please. I realize you are in Cali and things are very different there in terms of social norms and people being "laid back". But where I come from we are a little more in your face and don't take nicely to people telling us how to speak :-). PS Caucasians have officially been a minority in California since 2008, so enough with the bleeding heart stuff.

And I've been to this car wash before. They do a fine job cleaning the car. I don't have the kind of time to waste washing my car in my driveway during the week. I had pollen all over the rear windshield and a bird apparently had explosive diarrhea on my rear fender. It had to be done. I wish I had time to kill in my driveway washing my car. I work too much. I wish it was different. I do it when I can when the weather is nice. I'm not going to spite myself by driving around with bird **** on my car just because I dont have the time to wash it myself.
