Just venting a little is all..
Lot of good replies to this..and all worthy.
Just up here in this shack..Beer makes everything so much easier it seems...Hahahaha..
Just was in poor spirits due to alot of crap thrown my way..Not just me per say..But up here in a small town where groceries,gas..and what business is here cators to the tourist etc.
I rented a house in town almost a couple years back,and your average sized house here uses about 1100 galons of heating oil..(no natural gas here).
With the price of that..Your average renter/owner would spend over 5000.00-6000.00 a winter to heat there home...It's horrible for renters & owners alike.
I'm lucky I use wood for my heat..
As far as the beer goes..It helps to numb the senses..No pun intended..
Not personaly gona go sign up for government assistance,but would not feel bad if the need arose.
I guess my point is..(tonight) that making cut-backs is gona be a thing for all of us...
Those who don't drink beer..will have to give up there pop & candybars as well...(smile).
I suppose having a town with a population of 2000..or less..Those people feel the brunt first when it comes to buying any kind of goods...aka the cost of living etc.
