		<description>This is getting eery.  A post about a guy complaining about the Pope saying people have a value which is more important than profits obtained at the expense of people is a bit silly.  What does he expect the Pope to say?  That the money-changers really should occupy the temple?  That the important matter is money, not souls?

What kind of person would get upset over such a statement by the Pope?  Only a bonkers, raving Conservative.  I think that is the topic.

Unless it was crop circles, UFOs or something.  Never can tell.</description>

		<description>For fruit fies, anyway.  They really go for apple vinager.  Put a bit in a small jar, with a funnel on top to confuse any escapes, place it with the bananas, and watch it fill up.  their reaction to the aroma is an almost immediate attractor.  Depending upon the infestation, ridding yourself of fruit flies could be a matter of hours, or just a few days.

As for attitudes, though, you&#039;re quite right.

For bowser, pandering in the streets and sleeping under bridges are both quite legal, as are parades and demonstrations.  All you need is a community permit.</description>

		<description>Let someone hint that people are more important than exorbitant profits and watch Conservatives go nuts!  Absolutely bonkers.  Foam at the mouth.

Sez a lot.</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Make that $1000.&lt;/p&gt;

Fun Fact: When the British burned Washington in 1814, along with the Library of Congress and its 3,000 books, Jefferson sent eleven wagonloads of books (6,700 volumes) from his personal library to replace them, effectively doubling the original library&#039;s size.</description>

		<description>Show him my DNC membership card with Barry&#039;s picture on it

Show him some videos of an AR-15 and the Newtown massacre

And give him a ride in my Japanese car.
  
He&#039;d be eating out of my hand in no time.</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I would have no need to &quot;brief&quot; Jefferson on anything.&lt;/p&gt;

You&#039;re the one who&#039;d have to sell him on things like reason and intellect having nothing to do with politics, massive centralized power as the &quot;New Hotness&quot; for how to organize a society, that tens of thousands of Federal regulations, a $16 trillion debt, and Federal banking are normal, and that people can&#039;t be trusted to own arms or do anything else without close Federal supervision.

I&#039;d pay 500 bucks to watch it.</description>
