It does affect the price of ice cream you know, and that IS a necessity of life as I know it.

But milk in a glass is a waste of potential ice cream.

Ah, this is true

MILK in an iron skillet full of sausage and flour makes a lot of gravy for cathead biscuits, it is needed by old folks too.

Actually, back when I used to drink enough likker to get a hangover, a very cold glass of milk was one of my best morning cures.

These days I still like it, next to coffee and beer it's probably my favorite drink.

Noticing the price is kind of academic however, what with my wife's pets:

I am amazed....

That when Hillary campaigned against BHO she asked the question, "When that critical call comes in to the White House at 2 AM, who do you want to be there to answer it"?

Odd thing is about Benghazi, is the call came in and NEITHER one answered!!!!!!

With more people driving more fuel efficient cars, along with fewer miles being driven overall in the state, California is now looking at a way to tax drivers based on miles driven in a given year to boost revenues for road and transportation maintenance. So far, it's gone no further than trial balloon press releases from the state tax board, but.....

This is deep-blue Kali...with a deep-blue legislature and a deep-blue Governor. I wouldn't be a bit surprised if we'll soon be required to report our odometer readings upon registering our vehicles each year. Stay tuned.... :evil:
Nothing these buffoons do surprises me any more, it only makes me angrier.

"Police had been dispatched to a location in San Jacinto County in Texas to arrest David Schumaker on suspicion of credit card abuse

But, upon arrival, they were left surprised when they found their suspect trundling down the road at the controls of the pink Power Wheels electric car.

The toy is aimed at children aged between five and 10, however, that, according to local police, hasn’t stopped Schumaker using it as regular transport.

A spokesman at the local police station said ‘Yes, that story is perfectly true."

"San Jacinto County in Texas to arrest David Schumaker "

That is is actual name not "David Schumacher". I first thought it was fake then saw the story was carried by quite a few media sites.

No relation to Michael obviously as David's vehicle is the opposite of FAST........

I find it amazing that a person can go to college, and after graduating they can make an entire career out of holding public office! But even more amazing is the same people can feel they are in touch with, and understand what the rest of us go through on a daily basis to live with their stupid decisions!

that cheap hamburger is priced the same or higher than roast.
I've heard that FDA regulations direct that beef products with a higher fat content are taxed at a higher rate.

That's why you can only get a really good cut of meat from a commercial entity like a restaurant.

Government office attracts the power-mad, yet it's people who just want to be left alone to live life on their own terms who are considered dangerous.

History teaches that it's a small window in which people can fight back before it is too dangerous to fight back.

Hey guys: I thought that diesel actually provided more energy than gasoline so I did a short Google search. The first site I saw showed that diesel provides 113% of the energy of gasoline (which is 100%). Therefore, maybe it is reasonable for diesel to be more costly.

This comparison, however, doesn't take into acccount other potentially important factors, like costs of production, efficiency of combustion, etc. etc.

Just something to think about when making these kinds of comparisons.

What I find amazing is we take God the ten commandments and the golden rule, oh and paddles out of our schools and public buildings. And now people can't figure out why kids are out of hand and our country is so violent.

Reckon some folks just can't believe our Lord and God can make that much difference in our lives, or they just don't want to believe it.

Why oh why don't we just convert everything to CNG? (compressed natural gas) Much cleaner burning, ridiculously cheaper, and we have SOOooo much of it. The guvmint has made it expensive to have your charging station but there is absolutely no reason behind it except to keep everyone from doing it. Think big oil had a hand in? Your engine will last 2 or 3 times as long on it too. Oil changes could be a thing of the past. You don't need catalytic converters. The litany goes on.
