When Jimmy Carter was in office we were supposed to wear sweaters and try to not think about our “malaise.” As coping with gas shortages, long lines and soaring prices on anything transported by gas or jet fuel——which is everything but canoe merchandise deliveries at resort islands.

Maybe we can have street demonstrations to demand the pipeline be finished and we allow fracking and oil drilling again-—like smart people instead of cognitively impaired doddering fools. No names there.

When Jimmy Carter was in office

Oh the fun... I literally had to sleep in my car 2 nights at my work because I couldn't get enough gas for the drive home. I lived 30 miles away so the daily round trip was 60 miles. The lines for gas were 3 & 4 blocks long and then limited to 10 gallons (if they weren't already sold out). I just couldn't do it.
