Between the time that I went down to vote, and to hang out as a doorstop, and the time when I went home for lunch (no more than two hours), the price of gas went up ten cents.
Now I see that there are shortages here on rice, oil, and flour, as a result of difficulty in getting them to market.
Good thing we have the gummint looking out for us.
Ok, I'm going to try and put a postive spin on that.
ReplyDeleteRice and flour make me fat, and oil use is bad for the environment. So, see??? I shouldn't be using them anyway :)
Yeah...I don't really buy it either.
There's a line from Blazing Saddles that says it well:
ReplyDelete"We've gotta protect our phoney-baloney jobs, gentlemen, we must do something about this immediately!"
But will they? Doubt it.
