I heard on the news the other day a reporter quoted an analyst saying "pricing oil is like witchcraft". I have to disagree, I'd say it has to do more with farming, particulary cattle farming and bulls......
If you look at the first four letters of analyst you'll see that it is a word that can be replaced with another seven letter word, also related to Bulls...t.
All and all seems like a good place for a waste treatment plant cause everytime they start with this gas rising b.s I can smell it all the way up here.
Also, I've heard this reason, "due to the unstable conditions in the middle east". I've posted this elsewhere but here is my take on that and my question. When has the middle east been stable?? 10 years ago? Nope, sorry. 20 years ago? Nope again. How about 30 years or 40 years ago? Sorry, wrong again. 1000 or 2000 years ago?? Hahaha! After all of this time using gasoline and petroleum products and the evidence that a "stable" middle east is as likely as me shooting a 10 pound gold bar out of my bum, maybe we would have come up with an alternative. But, then our politicians and such could not use the age old excuse, "due to conditions in the middle east" blah, blah blah...and gracefully bend us all over at the pump. Everytime I hear it I no longer hear the actually words, all I hear is bulls..t, bulls..t. Kinda like Charlie Browns teacher.
