Only after somebody actually dies will they hastily pass THaRP (Troubled Hamburger Relief Program) which will divide all the existing hamburgers into smaller hamburgers in the name of increasing the hamburger supply. Those mini-burgers will then be fed to obese individuals who don’t really need or want them, but nothing will actually go into producing more hamburgers.tryanmaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09881154741574720094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-89137259185863066762012-01-25T13:15:31.215-05:002012-01-25T13:15:31.215-05:00Bev: 'Tis a consummation devoutly to be wishe...Bev: 'Tis a consummation devoutly to be wished.LawHawkRFDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17800255923675295515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-9982077039506498382012-01-25T12:45:28.700-05:002012-01-25T12:45:28.700-05:00Bev: Exactly right on the "jobs sent oversea...Bev: Exactly right on the "jobs sent overseas."

Maybe Buffet will give his secretary a $20 a week raise to put the whole thing together so she can continue to be taxed at a higher rate than Buffet himself. LOL<br /><br />So instead of a pipeline, we'll get a Buffet-owned burden on the environment. I guess it all depends on whose ox is being gored. Transporting that much oil by rail has got to be less energy-efficient and more environmentally damaging than a pipeline. I imagine it will involve a lot more than throwing a few extra cans of crude on existing railcars.LawHawkRFDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17800255923675295515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-441508050459640402012-01-25T10:57:52.627-05:002012-01-25T10:57:52.627-05:00tryanmax: Are you suggesting that they will pay u...tryanmax: Are you suggesting that they will pay us on Monday for a hamburger today?LawHawkRFDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17800255923675295515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-31756604615804092952012-01-25T10:57:32.865-05:002012-01-25T10:57:32.865-05:00TRAAAIINNNNSSSSSSTRAAAIINNNNSSSSSSZombie Joe Bidennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-10383229542942622332012-01-25T10:56:42.876-05:002012-01-25T10:56:42.876-05:00Personally, I thought Obama looked rather orange l...Personally, I thought Obama looked rather orange last night.
