10. Fled the country just before being nabbed by the IRS
9. Swept away by Katrina
8. His internet connection failed
7. In California partying with his good friend Hugh Hewitt
6. In Scandinavia on a secret scouting mission for Doug Lucia
5. In hiding after his attempt on the life of "Suge" Knight failed
4. Went to Florida to assist Cheri Pierson Yecke
3. In hiding until the Minnesota State Fair ends
2. Hazelden

He was writing this obvious parody of a Nick Coleman column in today's Strib --

I watched a gasoline tanker barreling north on Interstate Hwy. 35E on Thursday and was grateful that it wasn't being chased by shotgun-waving citizens desperate for a drop of unleaded.

That's probably next.

We are living in a nightmare of refugees waiting for rescue, a major city in ruins and a free-wheeling way of life suddenly starting to wobble as if the wheels might come off. With all of that going on, getting robbed at the gas pump seems like a small problem. But if prices stay at three bucks a gallon or higher, getting gouged at the gas station won't be a small problem for long.

"This is the way the United States works these days, I guess," said Keith Thuringer, a pipe fitter from Aurora, Minn., who had brought his ailing wife, Michelle, down from the Iron Range to St. Paul to see the doctor. He was gassing up his Ford pickup at the Mobil station at Grand and Smith Avenues in St. Paul.
