Yesterday my energy bills - for electricity and gas respectively - came in. They were higher than I expected, although I expected that. There's a Yogi-ism for you to contemplate.
To be fair though, don't we always complain about what things cost or how well they work? It's certainly been a mantra for me and among family and friends for as long as I can recall.
Has it always been this way? Did the hunter-gatherers of prehistory say things like, "The sticks we use for kindling sure aren't like the sticks we used to gather."
"When I was a boy, fires lasted a lot longer than they do now," Grandpa might have complained from his rock recliner as the family lounged around the cave.
Just wondering.
