Hey, Feds, take your ethanol mandate and shovel it!

My back is sore from shoveling snow - and it’s the federal government’s fault.

Maybe I’d better explain.

We’ve been getting lots of snow in Pittsburgh of late. When it snows, I need to clear two driveways: mine, which is 50 yards long, and my father’s, which is almost as big.

Since my father is having trouble with his knees, I gave him my magnificent new Toro snowblower; it’s a convenience for me...
