Not as dumb as voting for the Faux Nooz party, but we applaud your excellent representation of the 'pubs.

Meanwhile, we will continue to enjoy cleaner air, no thanks to Big Oil or their political lapdogs. But if you have a longing for being surrounded by their product and the special atmosphere it creates, enjoy a comfy vacation in Bakersfield. If only the rest of the state could be so lucky.

I'm gonna guess the shooter caught my tongue-in-cheek just fine. And is making his own funny as well about how obvious it is that the OP's theme claim is - well - just plain nertz.

Anyway, I lied. I'm not really a Rhodes Scholar, and my IQ isn't over 200.
It's merely 199. But I figgered out the gas prices weren't triple anyhoot.

Actually (write this down on your calender) I misunderstood what you were saying. My apologies.

No way! This is not simply a first for you, chuck. This is a first for the forum. I propose on this date next year: fireworks on the Bay to commemorate. Thanks for the leadership! I am humbled.

As long as we're still smarter than the people who think we're paying triple the US average, I'm not too worried about it.
