i'm going to blarg... honk

I got my tax return check today! All $14.00 of it. That's like, 5 and 1/2 gallons of gas. Or 3 cases of water with some change. Or a knife or two at the flea market. Or 14 drinks/snacks at school. You know, I got to thinking about it; there's all this stuff we pay for and all kinds of things that are the same price (at least approximately). But when you get down to it, are some of the things really equal in price? Seemingly not too many times when all's said and paid for. Oh well, that's economics fer ya. And by the way, gas prices aren't really high at all, comparatively speaking. If you take the inflation rate of many products, gas has gone up very little. The rise still stinks like Honk-Honk, but that, once again, is economics. Unless of course I'm out of date/misinformed or just out of my mind. ((btw, Honk-Honk is the alien in RvB... just to clear that up))

before i go and sleeeeep, tomorrow i'm paintballing with (probly half-drunk) work aquaintences in 30 degree weather! fun stufffff.
also something Heather said once that i thought was humorous in its own silly way:
"*gasp* Someone stole my car and replaced it with one exactly like mine!"
another also: explosives are cool. i cannot stress that enough.
also another also: i like oatmeal creme pies more than fudge rounds, although they beat them by only a fraction of tasty goodness.
another also another also: i want to go camping sometime.
also another also also: "I'm Ron Burgandy?"
