perhaps we could elect HIM?!  On the 14 mile drive to pick up C. from school today, as I passed 15 gas stations - all out of gas - this song was running through my head. What a bunch of idiots we all are…almost 30 years ago, this man wrote this song about a poor economy and gas shortages.  Those who do not remember history….blah blah blah…

“Who needs a car and a seven-forty-seven
When you can’t buy a gallon of gas
Who needs a highway, an airport or a jet
When you can’t get a gallon of gas
There’s no more left to buy or sell
There’s no more oil left in the well
A gallon of gas can’t be purchased anywhere
For any amount of cash
You can’t buy a gallon of gas.”
(copyright 1979 Ray Davies - buy the album cd…it’s great)
