Your Government Has Lost Its Mind
The U.S. government might not know what to do about the financial meltdown, the ailing auto manufacturers and the mounting deficit, but, by God, it's right on top of the Michigan tart cherry crisis and the revolutionary rules changes governing nominations for the California Walnut Board!

I think I am going to sell options for 2009 Michigan cherries. If the government is regulating them, the price will go up.
Dude! What a great idea!
Paco, I hope you pay your minions reading the Federal Register plenty. Or at least supply them with large quantities of stimulants, 'cuz going through that is like watching paint dry.
PS:
And, yes, the Federal Government has lost its mind.
If I were in the Walnut business, I would be very concerned.
[Rhetoric] Why does the state have to control walnuts?[/rhetoric]
Wimpy: Illegal aliens are one thing, but we'll be damned if we're gonna be overrun by walnuts!
Jeff: Ain't it the truth. Can you imagine anybody ever being a kid and actually planning on writing that mind-numbing drivel when he grows up?
How wrong can one be?
I thought the USA was the home of the free and "rampant" capitalism.
Reading that piece, I'm astonished, what ever happened to the free market?

It's all over. The End is nigh. Not being facetious. Mock me if you want.

The Department of Agriculture is pretty cool, but I probably committed a felony when I told them I no longer had any livestock because I was tired of filling out the paperwork.
Paco, I'm firmly convinced that anyone in a career associated with reading or writing the Federal Register got there because they have no other talents. Or pi$$ed off some executive. A sort of internal exile for bureaucrats.
OK Dean. Mock, Mock, Mock.

Barney Frank OR A duck with a harelip...You pick it.
This kind of thing has been a growing cancer in every segment of American society for decades.
Heh. Y'all act like people actually pay any more attention to the stuff published in the federal register than they do to the posted speed limits.
Swampwoman: Haw! You just start growin' some tart cherries without complyin' with 7 USC 601-674 and see what happens!
Those dang tart cherries do not grow here in Florida.
Maybe I could pass off some greening-infected citrus as tart cherries?
Whoa! Do you have a permit not to grow tart cherries in a state where they don't grow anyway?
Heh. I was getting checks from the Department of Agriculture not to grow cotton on land that I no longer owned that I wasn't growing cotton on anyway.
I threw 'em away. It was easier than explaining again.
Y'all act like people actually pay any more attention to the stuff published in the federal register than they do to the posted speed limits.
There are speed limits?
Jeff: Sure. You know those white signs on the highways in the south that tend to be riddled with bullet holes? Those are speed limit signs.
Those are speed limit signs? I thought that they were shoulder markers with an extra large reflector. Them being great targets was merely gravy.
Well, live and learn! No more plinking at 'em on the move with my SAW; I'll use more serious fire power next time.
Jeff: Now that's my kind of revolver!
