Bits and pieces and gasoline prices

Just filled up the Buick, the price per gallon was $3.45.9, might as well say $3.46. Crude went over $117.00 today based on the fact that a rocket hit an oil tanker.... Or at least that is the excuse of the commodity traders. There is little doubt that Bush has two choices.

1. Take action of some type to try and force the prices down.

2. Take no action and give the keys of government to Hussein or Hillary.

God help us.

Other than watching us being raped by OPEC and the commodity traders today was gorgeous. Kinda like:

"Other than that, how was the play Mrs. Lincoln?"

And the taxes the Demos will levy on the middle class and above will finish off the economy as sure as Smoot Hartley worsened the Depression. But I digress.

Worked in the yard, sharpened my lawn mower's blades, sprayed weed killer... Unfortunately Pope Algore's failure to get Global Warming when we needed it has left me in a quandary. Shall I wait and watch my cold damaged tomato plants die a slow and natural death, or shall I just go ahead and replace them. Decisions decisions.

Speaking of decisions.... The local school board, which is always broke and begging for more money...has decided that the trauma of children changing schools at the fifth and ninth grade is too much to bear and they must now be split into only two groups....k-8 and 9-12 instead of k-4, 5-8 and 9-12. The superintendent has hinted that if she doesn't get her way she will leave.

One can hope.

Returning to the yard... I have a fine crop of toads and lizards. That means no snakes. Since the Blue Racer was at the edge of the woods perhaps they have decided to not try and live in the flower beds this year.

Speaking of two reptiles...........

Tomorrow will be interesting. I have heard polls from Hillary at 11 over to 1 over. That tells me that no one knows what's going on. So here's mine.

Hillary at 7. Remember were you heard it.

Later chums!
