I get the bread thing..people have to actually MAKE the bread and have to be paid..but the cows just squirt the milk out and eat hay!  But the milk has to be transported by a truck that takes a ton of gas. I have a friend who was an independent trucker, and had to sell his rig and quit the business - he simply could no longer afford the gas. It's very sad.....

Breaks down the fact that we have to pay someone now to remove the cow poop because it is environmentaly unsafe(yet we use the crap on our gardens to grow food and flowers) and the milking machines (not hands) do all of the work, so the farmer has to make more money to pay for the machines. Damn it, just let me have a cow in my yard!

Half your work day goes into your tank! Gas here was 3.77 the other day...haven't been out today yet...we'll see what it is today!  Something really needs to be done about this!  I drive 400+ miles a week with my commute to Ocala! Good thing I don't have to do this every day! I want to get one of those Mini Coopers!

Hey Joe, It's been a few days since we've seen anything from you. Maybe you're busy, maybe you're taking a break. That's OK, just as long as you're not abandoning us altogether. I've enjoyed looking at all of your DSP pictures and look forward to more. But since it's been a few days, I hope you don't mind if I take the liberty to post my own picture. I think you'd appreciate the content. It's one of those moments that makes you glad you have a camera handy.  "A boat's a boat, but the mystery box could be anything. It could even be a boat! You know how much we wanted one of those!" -Peter Griffin
