[Peace-discuss] FCNL: Your Rep. Is One of a Few With Influence to End the Government Shutdown

Fri Oct 4 15:58:04 UTC 2013

Some parts of the US are reporting lack of sunshine, hail and damaging 
winds, and
there is loss of gravity in some parts of Ohio due to the government 
shutdown.

It is rumored that the Wabash river may quit flowing which may damage
the mosquito population in Posey County Indiana's Point Township.
Local sporting goods stores fear a drop in DEET sales that could
substantially damage the already stressed economy in Wadesville, IN,
and in New Haven, IL they are searching for a pencil to write to
their congressman and a map to find out which district they are in
this week.

It's total chaos, folks.
