    So the price of gas won't increase more than 5.8 cents/gallon.
    Hooray.

          Yup, you'll have too much money.

          I'm still trying to think of ways to spend all of this.

            ((((((COLA HUGS TO ALL)))))) ~

            Well, maybe hubby and I should retire now and get that yacht we've been dreaming of ...

            Two things:

            There were more than a few years in the past, when my sons were denied COLAs to their SSI. So, any increase is better than nothing. Even a close to nothing increase. Let them eat crumbs!

              ...unless, of course, youre like Gary, and it raises your income a few dollars above the poverty line which results in a denial of benefit coverage!

              But for the rest of us, maybe we can add a few more fresh veggies to our diet. Or a couple more Starbucks. Or beer. Oh, the choices...

                    Come one, come all, there's ALWAYS beer on hand. I may not have food, I may not have new glasses, but I ALWAYS have beer.
