Totally dependent on the news media's information and the gov't
I only have one glove for my left hand. What do I do now? Bring my plants in? Make sure all the Anatolian Shepherd dogs are indoors? Should I call the Sheriff's Office and ask how the roads are, even though I'm not traveling anytime soon? But I need another loaf of Wonder Bread and it doesn't matter why or how Biden's economics raised the price of milk, I still have an urge to buy milk and a dozen eggs. Gas went up 40 cents a gallon yesterday. I should've filled my lawnmower jugs the day before. I hope the power doesn't go out. Because I'll continually call the Sheriff's Office and the power company and ask when will my electric will be fixed until the power is restored. •••••Publisher's note: I suppose we could change the forecast to sunny and 77 or fair to middlin'.
