    Our local newspaper had an article about a girl stealing from the gas station she worked at, then went on to dime her out for a little hanky panky in the restroom.

    Wow

    I was at a local gas station a couple years back when they caught a young fellow stealing from the register, again. "But, I have kids!" he whined as he was being escorted out. "Don't steal, then, and keep your next job" the manager said as she closed the door behind him.

    Think about how stupid the average young person is these days, and then let it sink in: half of them are stupider than that.

    Oregon is trying to push a House bill to make it illegal to sell diesel in Oregon by 2023 in the metro areas and the rest of the state by 2027.

    I have no idea how they will do that or how they will ship anything, since everything that moves freight is run on diesel.

    "Affolter said she was struggling to feed her family, including two small children."

    I wonder if that was her baby daddy she was doing in the restroom.

    I hope this passes and no one tells them nearly everything they buy/consume is brought on trucks that run on diesel. Please let this happen.

    This would make the truckers that work for us very happy, they hate going to Oregon because there's very few places to park for their 10 hour breaks, and they're always full. If this happens then they won't have to.

    I told them they need to include "high sulphur fuels" in the bill, cause they have higher pollutants.

    Shipping, commercial fishing, logging, construction, all of it depends on diesel.
    Some of it, these geniuses think electrics will replace them.
    How do you replace commercial fishing boats with electric or locomotives with electrics? Really long extension cords?

    Don't see much of that in Tennessee. Of course, I don't spend much time in Nashville or Knoxville anymore, they've pretty much gone full blown Yankee, so, it could be going on there.

    Dr. Seuss under fire

    It's getting harder to find one of the six Dr. Seuss books the writer's estate has pulled from publication. Some of the titles can still be found on eBay (NASDAQ:EBAY), albeit at steep collector prices, despite the company announcing last week that it will ban their resale on its marketplace. The books can also be bought for hundreds of dollars on Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) via third parties, though the titles have been pulled from Barnes & Noble's (NYSE:BKS) online platform.

    What happened? Last week, Dr. Seuss Enterprises decided that six of the famed author’s books - And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street, If I Ran the Zoo, McElligot's Pool, On Beyond Zebra!, Scrambled Eggs Super! and The Cat's Quizzer - would no longer be published because they "portray people in ways that are hurtful and wrong." The statement added that "ceasing sales of these books is only part of our commitment and our broader plan to ensure Dr. Seuss Enterprises's catalog represents and supports all communities and families."

    As the Dr. Seuss books get pulled from the market, Universal Orlando, a division of NBCUniversal (NASDAQ:CMCSA), is weighing whether to redesign or remove an area of its theme park inspired by material from If I Ran the Zoo. Certain parts of "Seuss Landing" are based on the animals and characters portrayed in the book, which has been decried for its depiction of Asian people, though none of that imagery is featured in the section. The Mulberry Street Store gift shop also gets its name from And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street.

    Go deeper: While some companies have been removing controversial legacy content, others have been experimenting with warning labels. Among those attaching disclaimers are streamers like Disney (NYSE:DIS) and Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX), which appear more hesitant to dent much of their lucrative libraries. In recent weeks, warnings have even been applied to certain episodes of The Muppet Show, on top of labels for Peter Pan, Dumbo, The Aristocats, The Jungle Book, Lady and the Tramp and Swiss Family Robinson.
