I have a cold, so I feel like crap. Went through a big box of tissues yesterday, and today ain't looking any better. I'm using every available OTC cold fighter known to modern man, and they seem to work for about 10 minutes.
Cold-Eeze
Emergen-C
Airborn
Kold Kare
Infagard
Clinical Air
Yup, an entire cocktail of these, and no help at all.
Today I have read about the coming food price surges. It is already hitting countries like Haiti and many others. Imagine how thrilled those who are starving must be to find that producers in the USA and Canada are being paid either to grow less, or to grow corn for ethanol. Especially if they ever knew that ethanol doesn't work.
Do our legislators ever f'ing study anything that they vote in? All they seem to do is pander to the loudest voice and that usually results in the most short-sighted legislation possible.
And, I have to blame the voters. We should elect more responsible representatives, and do a little research ourselves. Is showing up every 4 years enough to keep this republic free and responsive?
I doubt it.

Awww...poor puppy. Aren't colds the worst? Its like, if you could just take off your head and put it in the cupboard for a few days, life would be much more bearable!
One example of rising food prices: my kid's grocery bill has doubled. She now has to cut down on what she puts in the bank for her emergency fund to cover weekly food shopping. And they have cut down as they are all on diets!
