I LOVE George Carlin!
I do agree with living with as little as possible. Up until a month ago I didn't even have a coffee pot. I could not understand why most people spend money on things they don't really need
- like all the types of coffee makers. I have made coffee the same for most of my life - a LONG time - just grab a handful of coffee grounds and dump it in a pot of hot water, bring ALMOST
to a boil and take off the heat, let it set for about 20 minutes - coffee's ready. The coffee grounds sink to the bottom of the pot while it "brews" - then pour. Instant coffee is so easy, but
it doesn't taste as good as brewed.
A month ago I found a percolator (stove top kind) and bought it because it was a special percolator - it has two stems - not just one.
I've never been one to buy knick knacks or anything I will not actually USE. When I got this laptop I threw out the T.V. I don't need both.
I buy everything second hand (like the percolator). I cannot see spending more than 2-3 dollars on clothing items.
The world has gone crazy thinking that they must have everything in the stores.
