This
just in: The state of California has once again gone mad.
With
current Governor Gray Davis on the ropes, and a recall election
getting closer by the day, actor Arnold Schwarzenegger,
former child star Gary Coleman, Hustler magazine publisher
Larry Flynt, and adult film star, Mary Carey are all making
a run for the office. And another 130 people.
Gasoline
prices in California are the highest in the nation, our
car license fees have recently tripled, and the state itself
is in financial free fall, faced with a deficit the size
of the San Andreas Fault.
This
week, some extremist environmental group known as the Earth
Liberation Front [ELF] vandalized a bunch of SUVs and Hummers,
and torched several auto dealerships here in the Pasadena
area. According to the 'environmentalists' agenda, large
SUVs are essentially responsible for destroying the world.
It's
just more of the same for us Californians, as we wait for
the big one to swallow us up.
Earlier
this month, we threw caution to the wind, jumped into our
expensive-to-license Ford Explorer, filled it up with $2.09
per gallon liquid gold, and left the 105° of Pasadena
for the 105° of Palm Springs.
