Here's what's wrong with America

I mean, it's certainly not the only thing wrong with America. But this doesn't help. According to this article, US customs agents are confiscating Vegemite from incoming Aussies and Kiwis. Confiscating it. Nobody is really sure why this is happening -- apparently, Vegemite is illegal to import to the US in bulk because it has vitamin B in it. I am not making this up. But up until now, Aussies could pack it in their luggage with no problems, which is a good deal because have you ever seen an Aussie have to go without Vegemite? It's not pretty. One time I deftly avoided this situation by walking two miles to the only shop in Dublin known to carry the stuff.

My point is, obviously, that our Customs folks need to find something better to do. Americans might do well to have a little more Vegemite in their lives. It's a hell of a hangover cure. (all that vitamin B, remember?) Just remember -- if you're ever confronted with a jar of Vegemite and a piece of toast, remember to use more butter. No, more than that. Yep, there you go. That should make it barely palatable.
