Keep your handkerchief handy, Gabrielle. If you explore Amazon Watch’s site you’ll keep on crying–not so sure about the laughing though. But when this news arrived in my box I was thrilled. Oh they so got the jump on Chevron that it feels so good to hear the TRUTH–which is much more OBNOXIOUS than any of the in your face with reality efforts of the makers of videos and posters. I think the time for ‘tactfullness’ is long past when dealing with this toxic reality.
Oh that animation is just so-so on target–gotta love it! Peace.
