O thank God someone understands. I am not paranoid. Did you know they have schools that teach mirrors how to break? It is all a conspiracy I say. Then they want to pin the 7 years of bad luck on us. Madness, I say. And after running for our lives they teach buses to take off when we reach the stop. The whole world…

LOL – I can understand that about the mirrors and it makes me feel a LOT better! I agree, it’s madness.
Where I live, they teach the doors of buses to close just as you are trying to get on…and therefore you end up rebounding, and falling on the street. It would comedic if it did not happen so often – then the bus just leaves anyhow…I mean, how can this continue??

DAG, hello from downunda, Brisbane Queensland, Australia.
Bananas at $14.00–$22.00 per kilo here because of crop wipe-out in the north (cyclones) and central (flooding) growing areas. We still manage to purchase at $6.00 a kilo from the organic market not 1/2 kilometer from home because we don’t support Coles/ Woolworths supermarkets!
Cheers from mal E + Bh
