Nevada lies

I was shocked out of my self imposed cyber silence yesterday by a sight so appauling that I could not in good conscious let it pass. Blatant state-sponsored spurious propaganda. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for propaganda. I mean, look at what it's done for us in the past! Got us out of a depression, let us know that we just had to make it into space to beat those Godless commie bastards, and lets us place the blame for natural disasters singly on our Heads of State. I wouldn't trade propaganda for the world. But when I saw this license plate, I could not stand the perversion. 'People grow things here . . .' Really?! It's NEVADA! 9/10 of the state is blasted desert waste land, and the rest of inarable alpine. People grow extra arms in NV from living on top of nuclear waste disposal sites, which I guess would technically qualify as growing things, but that's a really unfair way to couch it. Not to mention the utterly horrific diction. 'People grow things here.' Unbelievable.

I've had several other scintillating thoughts in the last two days, but I couldn't possibly waste them all in one post. Stay tuned for a spate of thoughts from yours truly.
