Dear Strong Bad,<br>

We realize that you are a busy fellow, but my friend and<br>

I cannot help but think that you could be doing more to<br>

help the environment.  This is your planet too, you know.<br>

''{clears the screen}'' Every day I wake up and the first thing I do is NOT drop a piano on Marzipan's head.  Who knows how many greenhouse gases I've rescued as a result of not mortally wounding ol' Marzipole. And don't forget my New Year's resolution to stop watering her plants with bleach.  Now I water them strictly with ''{cut to Marzipan's house and a close up on her flowers}'' recycled cigarette butts.
