I just want someone to straighten out the tilt of the Ghoddamn earth. This stupid tilt, which we’ve put up with for years now, is responsible for the fact that it’s 10 degrees outside and will be 100 in 6 months. You think with all our technology, someone could do something about that. While we’re on the subject, I’ve concluded that “falls from the sky when conditions are just right” is an inefficient and unreliable way to deliver water to the ecosystem. Someone should start working on that. And finally, that big yellow thing that shoots _billions_ of harmful photons at us for several hours each day – someone should look into a better heat delivery system. * * * Livin’ on Tums, Vitamin E and Rogaine ---
