Need Help with Gas??
No, I'm not talking about the digestive kind, though judging by TV ads during the evening news, there are a lot of people who could use that kind of help. What's up with all that indigestion, bloating and constipation, people? Here are two words: Go vegetarian. Trust me. You'll have no digestive problems and conveniently avoid both mad cow disease and the bird flu, perhaps.I guess that makes this two public service announcements. The latter comes on the heels of some wise words from our Fearmongering Leader. He's the one who's a uniter, not a divider. But today, he's a DECIDER.
He's also a big brain on gas. He's swears he's gonna keep a close eye on them prices. To make sure his campaign contributors stay fat and happy, I guess.
On a less snarky note: my public service today is this link to help you find the cheapest gas in your 'hood.
If this were any other country in the world (especially France), the streets would be filled with angry citizens demanding lower profits for the oil companies (read: raping the American public) and more help for us.
But we're not, so this is my attempt at personal revolution.

If this were any other country in the world, we'd be paying a LOT more for gasoline than we do here. Even in Canada it's more than $5 a gallon. Probably more in Europe.
Rather than concerning ourselves with why an unrenewable energy source is costing us $3 at the pump, we should be asking ourselves why we're willing to pay $20 a gallon for bottled water or fancy coffee at Starbucks.
What if a bird poops on your vegitables? Can you get bird flu from that?
:-)
Sorry, MAC, for being a pain in the @ss. I didn't think that comment actually posted yesterday!
E: You're never a pain. I agree with you!
And if a bird poops on your vegetables(or in their soil at least), it creates a fungus that can get in your body and give you a condition called "presumed ocular histoplasmosis." You can also get it in your lungs. (I have the former, thanks to weeding at a friend's farm when I was a kid, so this is actually true. Sick, ain't it?)
I repeat: GO VEG!!!
