Subsidies go almost entirely to meat and dairy, some to grains, and almost nothing to fruits and vegetables.
And I wonder how much the percentage of grain subsidies would go down if you took out corn.
And I myself will be wearing pink taffeta as chenille would not go with my complexion.

Also, how does the lead female character have a one bedroom HOUSE!
There was one on the market when I was looking for my house. It was really cute, but they were asking $20K more for it than my 2 bedroom house.

Not on a conference call, but reading Buffistas and drinking beer. Trader Joe's house Vienna Lager. It's not bad.

Good to know.
I ran into one of our CRMs (pretty high-up guy in the org) who I'm leading a project for at CostCo on Sunday. I only go there when someone's in town with a vehicle, to stock up on things that are pricy and hard to carry. So I'm standing there with my cart that has four cases of beer, eight bottles of wine, and like, a bag of peppers. And he's introducing me to his wife. Nice.

Hey, everybody who goes to costco knows that you buy in bulk so that you don't have to come back. If it ever comes up, say you were having a party ;)

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Congrats, Connie!!

Our wings are not tired.
brenda, ha! A friend of mine who teaches at a Catholic Girls' School posted (Facebook) yesterday that she of course ran into a student at the grocery store. In the cart were vodka, tampons and an US Weekly.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Or if you took out grains that were going to animal feed and only looked at grains that would be eaten by people.

Animal feed doesn't even catch it all since there's the ethanol question with corn, even if you leave aside the HFCS stuff. (Soy has some issues also but an order of magnitude less significant.)
