They fly high in the CO2 friendly skies opting for party planes, seeing green. They have decent intentions but they are not smart. Usually we try to inspire with our selected quotes each Friday, and keep it local. Not today. However, it does remind us of something Mark Twain said: "Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on, or by imbeciles who really mean it."

Sheryl Crow: “I have spent the better part of this tour trying to come up with easy ways for us all to become a part of the solution to global warming. Although my ideas are in the earliest stages of development, they are, in my mind, worth investigating. I propose a limitation be put on how many squares of toilet paper can be used in any one sitting—only one square per restroom visit, except, of course, on those pesky occasions where two to three could be required." Not even Sheryl can spare a square.

Jennifer Aniston: “I take a three-minute shower. I even—brush my teeth while in the shower.” And brushing your teeth in the shower saves water how? Since we all know more water comes from the sink than the shower faucet.

Ben Affleck: "I bring the fear. Does big oil sleep around? Got bad credit? I'll find the dirt. And I will make big oil regret the day it ever uttered the words 'price gouging!'" From an ad where he donned a corn suit for “Clean My Ride, Flex My Fuel.”

Sen. John McCain on his 2008 vice-presidential pick: “She knows more about energy than probably anyone else in the United States of America." Well, he was technically talking about a celebrity, so we’ll include it.

David Hasselhoff: "Beyond its entertainment value, Baywatch has enriched, and in many cases, helped save lives! I'm looking forward to the opportunity to continue with a project which has such significance for so many." Wow.
