So.... here I was watching the news one day, and I started to wonder why it was that I was watching it. We hear the same stuff on the news everyday, and it is boring, and annoying. The annoyance of this particular evening was that it was the night Hilary Clinton had her interview on the O'Reilly Show. This was fun, because I enjoyed hearing Bill rag on Hilary, but it also had its draw-backs, like the fact that I had to listen to the eco-freak. So as I said I was annoyed with Hilary, but I continued to watch the news, mostly because I was being lazy and didn't want to change the channel. The next subject on the news was ethanol, the news anchors were reporting a rise in the price of wheat. No Kidding! When we are devoting our crop lands to corn for ethanol of course there is going to be a rise in the price of wheat. The news people then reported the fact that the corn used to make one tank of gas could feed one person for an entire year. This annoyed me some more, I am so glad that the ecomentalists care more about saving the empty waste land in Alaska then a person's life. And that is when this brilliant idea hit me. I decided that I would rather be a peoplementalist then an ecomentalist. (Peoplementalists are for the people btw) that sounds constitutional, doesn't it?
Well there is the story, of how the peoplementalist's came to be. I know the story isn't very exciting, who know's maybe one day I'll modify it, add giant reptiles and some sort of extra-terrestrial being that was going to attack the earth, but that's it for now.

Michele that was great. The ecochondriacs are really causing lots of commotion in our lives. This fad too will end. Love you

"The news people then reported the fact that the corn used to make one tank of gas could feed one person for an entire year." Right, but i would rather have a tank of gas than eat corn for a year. In fact, i think eating only corn for an entire year would prolly kill me. Or maybe it means that they could make a tank/gallon of gas out of the corn the average person eats in a year. I wonder if i even eat a gallon of corn in a year. I think i eat a spoonful or two of corn a week. 52 x 2 = 104. Are there 104 spoons of corn in a gallon?
