I went to the store the other week and the 89C loaf of generic white bread was $2.45 all due to ethanol and increased energy demand

Tom Thumb in Texas has the audacity to have a buy one get one free sale on eggs, an 18 count carton of eggs. Buy one at $5.79 and get one free.

Yeah Tom Thumb, you think that all of us Americans have become unable to think for ourselves.

That’s a little steep for eggs, aint it? It’s been awhile since I bought eggs, but they were under a buck a dozen a year ago.

Actually, it’s not such a bad deal. Eggs keep for a long time if kept cool. Stocking up now at $2.80/doz. could prove to be farsighted a year from now when eggs at $5.00/doz. Also, since eggs are high in protein, they represent a cheaper source of protein than does meat.

My neighbor and I are building a henhouse right now. Make of that what you will.
