Dollar Drops Further -- Oil Prices Soaring
Whatever is going on here, I am certain George Bush is at the bottom of it. If only Gore was president none of this would be happening.
Actually this reminds me of an old drunk who spent the last 40 years soaking up the sauce and burning the candle at both ends.
One day he wakes up and finds his family gone, his health in shambles and his life over. Then he decides he is having a by-God-emergency and starts raising hell and screaming demands at anyone who will listen.
The point? America has been on this carefully constructed path for 4 decades, ever since it was deemed illegal (or impossible) to build a new refinery; ever since it it became illegal to drill new wells anywhere on our soil.
It has gotten to the point where unfriendly nations can drill 60 miles off our shores but our own people can't.
What did we think was going to happen? Duh!
The real surprise to me is that we skated so long. We as a nation worked damn hard, with a single minded purpose and a total lack of logic to get here, and now we are here.
So lets fork over the $5.00 a gallon (or more) and enjoy the fruits of our planning and labor.
BTW, I can't wait until congress starts taxing the oil companies so we can drive them overseas and raise the prices even further. That will teach us a lesson!
Maybe we can force the oil majors to give back half their profit. I figure that could save me as much as 70 cents on each fill-up. That's $10-$11 bucks a year back in my pocket!
Now I can continue to feed the cat.

KT.... not serious..... I fixed it.
Cheif.... speaking of control.... have you read about the "drought" in California?
Turns out that a Federal judge has blocked the importation of water from the Sacramento valley because some stinking little fish is getting stuck in the pump intakes.
Based on that 6 million people have to quit watering their lawns and washing their cars.
