Hugo Chavez, the Venezuelan president, has called on his countrymen to stop singing in the shower to help save water and electricity.

The left-wing leader said they should attempt to wash in less than three minutes and breaking into song distract them.

"Some people sing in the shower, in the shower half an hour. No kids, three minutes is more than enough. I've counted, three minutes, and I don't stink," he said during a televised Cabinet meeting.

Getting into his stride, he went on to label baths and jacuzzis anti-communist.

“I’ve counted, three minutes, and I don’t stink,” “

Three hours wouldn’t be enough to wash the stink off that greasy burrito.

Communism/Socialism/Fascism is all about spreading misery equally.

The world is getting polluted with little self-assuming demigods. I used to think Hugo was exceptionally idiotic until we got our very own loopy, leftist god-thing.

California will soon be passing such a law as a follow up to banning plasma TVs and the color black.

Merely telling the world to avoid Venezuela at all costs.

She's only doing a half-assed job if she doesn't use both sides of that single sheet. And then wash it out for reuse.

and the color black.

Please don't tell me this has something to do with absorption and reflection of radiant energy with regard to clothing etc., and it's impact on global warming.

“and I don’t stink,” he said during a televised Cabinet meeting.

I doubt anyone would tell Hugo that he stinks in a country he controls. I doubt anyone would have told that to Saddam Hussein as well. I heard on Dr. Edell’s show however that dried-on sweat can carmelize and smell even worse with just a light shower. Of course in a socialism everyone is subject to the state’s wishes, and they don’t if you smell like a pig as long as you don’t complain.

If Hugo set up shop in the desert, a shortage of sand would develop.
