icky and sticky

Today I learned that there's a dentist in Phoenix who is adding colonics to his practice. He apparently fails to see the obvious 'both ends' connection that would stop the rest of us cold.

In completely different news, there was speculation that prices for things that ride on trucks would remain high because trucking companies buy their fuel on the futures market. From a comment on a blog that gets many more comments than this one, we learned that that isn't industry practice. Thus we conclude that prices will remain high because they're sticky.

Now I feel compelled to remind everybody to go wash their hands.
