The Pretzel Pub Chicken Sandwich at Wendy's is US$6.30 JUST FOR THE SANDWICH? Holy crap. Is the combo US$7.99 or something? Eight bucks for Wendy's? The Federal Reserve quantitative easing is gobbling up your dollars much faster than I had thought.

My hourly rate of US$650 probably is going up this year over US$700 because of this.
