Stephen King Likens Rich People to Old, Dead Dog Shit

I try to keep this from being a political page, except in support of lawmakers who believe in cleaning up dog doo-doo.  Stephen King, however, made a few points that caught our attention in this article from The Guardian.  He says, and I tend to agree, that rich people should have to pay more in taxes to support our society.  He also says, "most rich people are as boring as old, dead dog shit."  I always liked his books.

Spring is Defrosted Dog Turd Season

Adapted from Locksley Hall, by Lord Alfred Tennyson:

In the Spring a fuller crimson comes upon the robin's breast;

In the Spring the wanton lapwing gets himself another crest;

In the Spring a livelier iris changes on the burnish'd dove;

In the Spring a young man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love.

In the Spring all the dog turds that were buried in snow defrost;
In the Spring you better watch your step or pay the messy cost.

Watch your step!  Spring is defrosted dog turd season.
