Those pesky bed bugs closed down the Jesus Center shelter for some serious fumigation. This caused a number of transients to be looking for new accomodations…out of town. Bed bugs did what the council and all their committee meetings could not. The Council should learn from this: “Close it down and they will go” verses ”Build it and they will come.” It’s that simple.
Good things come in small packages?
I can’t claim this is apropos of anything in particular—just wanted to share and this seemed like a good spot.
The Government Shutdown Diaries.
Tuesday:
Day One of the government shutdown. Park rangers are furloughed. The fires from the grizzly bear riots are painting the night sky over Yellowstone bright orange. Bald eagles are ditching their tracking collars and skipping the country. WHEN WILL THIS MADNESS END
***
Wednesday:
Day Two of the government shutdown. They have begun to tear up roads and dismantle all the utility wires. The garbage trucks sit by the side of the road, abandoned. We are freezing in the dark and can’t go anywhere. THANKS, NRA TEABAGGERS.
***
Thursday:
Day Three of the government shutdown. Marauding Canadians are crossing the unguarded northern border in large groups. For now we can placate them with hockey shirts and cheap LASIK, but I fear the worst.
The supermarket has no food left. Without anyone to tell them what size apples are safe to sell, they didn’t want to risk killing us all. At least SOMEONE is looking out for us.
***
Friday:
Day Four of the government shutdown. Without the FCC, everyone on TV and the radio is just screaming random obscenities. In the next town over, people drank raw, unpasteurized milk, and everyone died screaming.
Because there are no more grocery stores, we tried to go out to eat last night. Restaurant was gone. Some fool installed a bathroom urinal with unapproved water throughput and blew the place up when he flushed. SERVES HIM RIGHT, I SAY.

Chico might be better served if we elected the bedbugs to the City Council. They got something DONE!
