Number of US Coal Mines Down 26% From Peak, Production Down 17%

 American Coal Pie

So bye bye American coal mine,
If you don't close down soon I'll lose more than my mind,
And them good ole boys still feed us the same line,
Saying this'll be the way that we die,
This'll be the way the world dies.

Did you love that mountain top?
Pity that they blew it right up,
To get to the coal below.
Do you believe Harper and Abbott?
Is it too late to stop the rot?
And manage to make the warming slow?

Well I know that you're in love with cash,
But what good is it standing in the ash?
To our chagrin we learned,
Some men just wanna watch the world burn.

And the natural world it comes unstuck.
From burning coal and filling air with muck,
But do they even give a fuck,
On how the world dies.

Audi Announces 500 KM E-Tron Quattro! Not The Car, Just The Concept!

With a 500 kilometer E-tron Quattro,
I could drive to a most distant bottle-oh,
One in Coober Pedy don't you know.

Some people say this car is phony,
But a magic talking pony,
Told me that it isn't just for show.

As soon as I am able,
I will buy this mythic fable,
And be stared at everywhere I go.

I will hover in the air,
On an invisible magic chair,
And tell my number one to make it so.

We will soar at ludicrous speeds,
As on imagination the engine feeds,
In automobilic emperor's new clothes.

Parked within my garage,
Will be a shimmering mirage,
The unillusionary E-tron Quattro!
