Cherries just fell from $4 a pound to $2 a pound.

Musta' found some "guest workers" in Oregon or something ~ they were missing last week.

Green grapes, here where we live, are $2.87 a pound. I walked right on by them. By the time our taxes are applied, they're $3.oo a pound.

Used to be chicken was a poor mans food...no longer. Oh well, I need to shed some poundage anyway. Before long, we'll slid down the food chain and return to grazing.

You know what just occured to me, grapes are $2.87 a pound...and gas is $2.87 a gallon. The regular working stiff ain't got much of a fighting chance nowadays. *sigh*
