The aforementioned things are totally annoying, but tolerable as long as the price of wine doesn't go up too!! :eek:

thedog---To tell you the truth as far as I'm concerned,the price of
almost eveything is too high!I got sick of worring about it.It doesn't do any good.If I need it,I buy it.All you're going to do with your money,is leave it to your kids,anyway! Irish

But why? Why is the cost of milk going up so much? Why, why, why? Mad cow? Udder's under reconstruction? Cows go on strike? Why? No one ever says why...just does it!

Irish 05-11-2004 03:24 PM

Lixy---I got in trouble,in school,for awnsering why.Awnsering a question,a teacher said-"I don't know,why is the sky blue?"I raised my hand & proceeded to tell him.I explained,how a prism.
worked & explained why it made the sky appear blue.He called me,a wise ass & sent me to the office.Therefore,it's not always
smart,to ask,"Why?" Irish
P.S.Maybe,he was a prophet.He wasn't alone in calling me a "wise-ass!"

Milk price has to do with the availability of cows- For example, here in MI, which is filled with dairy and meat cows, milk and meat are still pretty resonable. Go to Hawaii, however, and you could pay 2-3x for the same thing. Mostly, the inflation of costs deals directly with the prices they have to pay to import/export the product, the grain and upkeep for the cows, etc.

In this case, it's not just dairy, though. Tornado's in Madagascar virtually wiped out the vanilla crop, which is where a rather large chunk of the ice cream industry gets it from. That right there made the vanilla cost jump astronomically.

The gas prices, obviously, have risen. That means transport of the supplies and end product all cost more.

Cocoa on the Ivory Coast went up as well, because of the political unrest.

All of that means a jump in the over all price.

Time to break out the old ice cream maker. Maybe go into business.Homemade Ice cream shipped anywhere in the Kingdom of Pixies.Oh shoot,I can only make a quart at a time. Something tells me that would hardly be enough in most cases.HHHMMMMMMM.....If Pixie People were n the ice cream making business, what would we name the flavours?

It's a conspiracy... Our local governments have enacted zoning laws that won't let us keep a cow in the back yard. We should all protest, and buy a cow... Or all women should be given drugs to make them start lactating, they could fill up a quart every night before bed, ha ha.

If a man's wife or S.O. can't produce, he should be able to employ the services of a Milk Maid.


Lilith 05-12-2004 08:11 AM

I can have a cow in my yard...but seriously who wants cow shit in their carpet????

And that lactating drug....it's called sperm :sperm: :D:D:p

I'll buy ice cream even if it's $458309480398 a gallon.
