was just cooking dinner on my camp stove, spaghetti and sausages for $1.69 at
Grocery Outlet, and 2 cans of stewed tomatoes I got from the senior center
handouts last Tuesday. only I forgot to stir the spaghetti, and didn't have
any stirrer handy because the neighbor's dog keeps carrying away my bamboo utensils.
so I tried to make do with a grater, but then I pushed too hard and the whole
thing went crashing down. I had plenty of water handy and easily put out the
flame, but the penny stove had fallen in the food itself and the bittering agent
added to make the fuel alcohol non-potable ruined it completely. so now I'm out my
planned dinner. I've still got food for tonight, thankfully, but without a grasping
government I could have salvaged my intended meal.
without government there's always a chance that cheap alcohol will be toxic or otherwise undrinkable.
only with government is that guaranteed.
