the pinky conspiracy
Surrogate rant on behalf of my good friend, Sarah "Bistro" M.
As winter doth finally cometh to the mid-west, we are all well aware of two unswervng facts of life: #1 Indiana refuses to join in on the "evil" daylight savings time for WHO knows why!, and #2 ... Glove manufacturers are once again ensuring a good fit for the "long-pinky-ed" among us!
Yup, that's right. Apparently in the fashion of politically-correct-glove-nocity, hand warming manufacturuers are protecting themselves from the onslaught of legal-eagled attacks brokered by those 1% among us whose smallest digit would actually fill the otherwise superfluous pinky space of covetous warmth.
In a culture that offers more choices in toilette tissue than Russia offers models of automobile, it's hard to imagine we don't have two choices in gloves: "normal" and "pinky-enhanced."
I suggest that when the next public ballot rolls around, in the "write in" space, we all simply scribe, "WHAT ABOUT THE GLOVES??!!!!" I'm sure when our voice is heard, our representatives will take the matter firmly in hand...
