$12.00/gallon
factory water and lottery tickets. That's why you're history.

I expect you're speaking of the royal "you" since I don't watch stupid
television shows and I do travel. I'm completely aware of the rest of
the world and how stupid America looks right now.

Congratulations - you're nearly functional, except for the fact that you
prefer to go down with the ship.
