My dog got sloppy drunk, eating overripe mulberries off the ground. My wife pointed out he was staggering,aimlessly, falling, over and over. Then it hit me, I'd seen him eating some mulberries and put it together. He was a sorry dog the next day and hasn't eaten mulberries since. I notice that doesn't stop many people from repeatedly bashing their brains and organs with far too much alcohol. Hangover, vows of abstinence, shower, a short time cycle, tequila shooters or Long Island Iced Teas, silly behavior, sleep, rinse, repeat.
Dogs should be studied far closer.

I've seen this phenomena in Texas. But noticeably Massachusetts is a FAIL even as likely as they consume twice the state of Texas.
These questions should be probed in further depth, with random samplings in the thousands,aclohol and women, from both states, by a team, I would assemble.
Their objectivity and focus would have to be completely on the job. With a grant or a kick start, the research could go on for years and provide valuable information, for anyone in the science community, who needed a drink or to get their pickle tickled.

          The political implications could be staggering as well. But my money is on Colorado and other marijuana states to attract a higher chickadeer population.

As a musician, a driver and a chronic for 35 years, I support this statement.

I'm still trying to get by that bit in the article about ;" the government realized they needed to make sure drivers weren't psychopaths luring victims into their cars. "
Not sure medallions were effective, correlated or even an oblique strategy against the near-human species driving cabs today.
Basically, they only existed as a token of taxes/bribes paid, a lot like just about any "license"(permission) you grovel for from perceived authority today! You may as well just get in the Manson Family SUV to catch a ride to the store.

In space no one can hear you piss.

No one ever considers riding horses! Horses take up quite a bit of room though. Perhaps if we rode pigs instead...

Brilliant! We need a large vehicle that slithers through traffic. It could be based on those robotic snakes from a few years ago. I could see it crawling along on a tread lined belly, making clean corners, gobbling up riders, pooping their nutrient drained husks out. Perhaps it could squeeze buildings for passengers or tankers for fuel.
That would be efficient. It could crawl over traffic jams, park in unusual places, maybe there are military applications!

"Westworld, where nothing can go wrong, go wrong, go wrong, go wrong..."

Sorry, but, I know how this story turns out.

Insert clever remark about driverless vehicles on "the road to nowhere", compare and contrast, automats, vending machines, pay toilets and marital aids.
End with analogy dealing with electric underwear, Prince Alberts button fly and Apple computers. Recap and close.

My bicycle kickstand has never been helpful on the toilet either, but, the old bumper-jack is another story altogether...

It's a ticket for a carnival game of chance.
If any part of the Surface breaks or breaks down; it's trash. There's no fixing it.Disposable as a Bic lighter.
You know, I've seen the same sort of promotional model used by the music industry;
Pay industry publications/writers to fain interest in your product and turn up the valve on the hyperbole faucet, then throw some money at advertising and see if it sells a hit song. If not, fire some flunkys and go on the the next product-du-jour.
It's time to call Purina and not the ASPCA; the horse has been beaten to death...

I wanna print up one of those laser guns that fires a microscale silica bullet at up to 2000 m.p.h.
Duck season bears on and I'm tired of the same ol' choked 12 ga.
I'd boost the laser power and cook the duck before it hits the ground.

I point out YOUR folly and I'm dumb. Yeah, I can see that's how these kind of messes get started. I live on the fucking planet of the dumb apes who can't tell the difference between polluting in a profitable way or polluting in an expensive way. Either way you're going to pollute, but, are you going to make the most of it or are you going to throw EXTRA money needlessly at it?

Back off the medication, if plain English gets to be too much for you.
Perhaps you strayed from the "Better Homes and Gardens" forum and can't tell the difference.
On second thought, maybe you better double up on the Zoloft.

Yeah, big deal, there's oil in the fuel. That's Diesel.
When they've rid the fuel of oil and it's straight gasoline, the oil is separated and used elsewhere, putting it in the environment, just the same.
The only difference is; it may not be in the air at first, it may go directly to ground or water.
The silly French are trading good mileage to appear environmentally conscious to retards who can't process steps in thinking past 3 moves.
Silly French, silly enviroMENTALists and silly anybody who didn't think of it before reading this post.
Keep your diesel, you may as well, you only lose money and help no-one by removing it. I'll bet a politician or two is in this besides enviro-wack-jobs. How else could it be so fucking patently stupid on the face of it?

Helpful tip; if you possibly ever can; get hold of a Mercedes Diesel, you can put more miles on them, than any other car on the face of the planet! I know of several with over 1000000 mi. and one with over 2000000 and only 2 rebuilds.
