I'd also like to do my prose satire on eith gas prices or possibly something related to having a new baby in the house.

Ideas please?

Scroll down until you see Gas Survival Guide and you'll find a terrific photo -- ARM, LEG, BOTH!! You can save the photo (right-click on your mouse and choose Save Picture As) and then import it into your satire if you wish.
