Gov. Jerry Brown went on national TV Sunday to explain his newly-announced mandatory water restrictions that will, among other things, require California residents to shower less. And if you've ever visited France, you know what that means.
Last week Brown, now in his fourth term as chief executive of the nation's most populous state, said California has not properly prepared for the kind of long-term drought it appears to face now. Brown, who turns 77 Tuesday, did not blame George W. Bush, but instead global warming.

We don’t have that much brown anymore. I think it moved up to Sacramento! They taste the brown.

All fine and well, unless your neighbor is an eco nazi and turns your butt in to be fined, just like moonbeam wants to do.

Ha. The City of Albuquerque Water Authority has for years pushed for saving water. Citizens did so beyond their wildest dreams. They saved so much water that the Water Authority is asking to jack rates to cover losses in revenue due to the increased water savings.The same thing has happened in parts of California, including recently.
