Too Bad for the Rest of the World
For those that don't know I spent my first 27+ years in north central Maryland. I lived 30 minutes south of Hanover, Pennsylvania, home of Utz Potato Chips. If you've ever had some of these chips, you'd know that these are some of the best any where. My wife even thinks that their cheese curls are the best. They had a small delivery rule: their truck drivers needed to be able to make deliveries and be back in the same day. Therefore, they had a limited delivery radius. Outside of Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, and possibly New Jersey, you can't find them. While I was in college, they had a billboard on the lower eastern shore of Maryland that read "No Utz in Miami. Too bad for the rest of the world."
I tell you that because that's what I thought when I heard: the global climate change that is going to prevent hurricanes in the Atlantic won't help the western Pacific. Or anywhere else. Too bad for the rest of the world that the evil United States and their war on the climate is actually going to PREVENT hurricanes from hitting us. I'm plotting a diatribe about global warming, but I'll spare you for now.

I can get Utz stuff in cincinnati, ohio. In particular they make this delicious snack mix. Yum. I want some now.

I've heard that they've been selling their products in Sam's Clubs down here, too. Perhaps they've changed their policy. I wonder if they still have factory tours like they did when I was a kid.
