Solve the oil problem and save our children; ELECT ME



One of our suppliers for ThatRestlessMouse.com has been telling us to get on the stick and order up some of these "Silly Bandz" because they are all the rage among the grade-school big spenders.

Naturally I was skeptical, our kids are grown and while my wife tells me I am childish, they don't do a thing for me. I would prefer a sturdy slingshot, ala Bart Simpson or Dennis the Mildly Menacing.

Now I read that school principals are banning them from the classroom. That's a sure sign of a runaway hit. But I see the bandwagon has picked up speed and it's too late to jump on; demand would vanish, and we would be stuck with a half a case of weird looking, impractical rubber bands.

HEY I JUST THOUGHT OF SOMETHING! We could stuff that oil pipe with these goofy things, save enough to fill their other problematic spewing hole (The CEO's mouth), and save the kids from (this particular) distraction. Yay me!

What really grinds my gears though was the blatant lie at the very bottom of the reciept; Low prices You Can Trust. Every Day. A better tagline might be We know, everything is expensive, it's not just us. Maybe put the oreos back? To which I might reply: I got your creme filling right here, Buddy.
