1. When you go to grab some toilet paper and it comes out of the dispenser in little shredded confetti pieces.
2. Stupid instructions on common everyday household items - on my Peach Mango shower gel - This is not food. Do not eat. "Mmmrrrph!?!? (gulp) Oh crap!"
3. And this guy,…
When a dollar starts out with the poor, it circulates to the grocery store, auto dealership, etc. A dollar held by the rich does very little good.

Circulating money makes for healthy economy
He’s absolutely right - because as everyone knows rich people do not eat food. Their wealth has allowed them to harness the rays of the sun for photosynthesis. That's why you see their glistening brown bodies lying on the beach all the time; they're not tanning, they’re feeding on the wholesome goodness of sunlight. The money they save they stuff in their mattresses.
Not only is this guy’s statement ridiculous it also smacks of class warfare, which is the thing that irritates me the most. Rich people “circulate” money just as much as poor people, more so because of the simple fact they have more of it. They also invest their money which is good for everybody.
You don’t like rich people? And who exactly would that be? Anyone who has more money than you? Newsflash – there will always be at least one person who has more money than you. And there will always be people who have less money than you and those people might even consider you rich.
Eat the rich? Okay – and then what? Do you put a cap on how much people can earn? That won’t eliminate need or want or envy. All it does is lower everyone’s standard of living until we’re all equally miserable.

Well stated once again.
BTW ... see you have a site meter now. Very good idea. It's fun to see where everyone hails from and how they got to your blog.
Thanks Caroline!
Yeah - I thought the site meter would be fun. :-)
