Earlier this month, thousands of people made the pilgrimage to Abilene, Kansas for the Kansas Combine Derby, to watch big trucks crash into one another. It was BANG! CLANK! BANG! GEE! BANG, BANG, BANG! CLANK! See the video.
My lord! If that derby wasn't summer madness, is anything ever is?
Well, crashing trucks beat what people at that festival in India did. They threw stones at each other.Crashing big trucks beat throwing stones, right?
As for the festival in Spain, where people throw tomatoes at each other, each year, -- crashing trucks are for the people who can afford the big trucks, and can afford to crash them, --- tossing a tomato? Everybody can toss a tomato.
Wait! I like tomatoes. The price of which is steadily rising. I can't be sure, and the answer is probably not, but I wonder: Does the tossing of the tomatoes in Spain effect the price of the tomatoes in our supermarkets?
