Hi, Laurel! I was glad to see the name of Mike Brown among those you know are safe. The only person i really know from Gold Coast is Mike. Should you happen to speak with him, would you tell him Chuck and Sue have been concerned about him. Those of us here in Texas are praying for all those folks who are victims of Katrina. Keep us posted on what we can do to help. Thank you and all of you, be safe. Chuck

_____________________________________ Wasn't CREEPS shown in a 'fake' ad in Skydiving Magazine, awhile back? edit to add: Seems like the seller has a little nerve, using a rip-off name of Pier Ltd. Chuck -
You hit the nail on the head! It puts a 'face' to the problem, situation, disease. It helps us to get a grasp of things. The broadness and indescrimination of disasters or disease. As sad as it all is right now, the South's gonna do it again! Chuck

It's better than; " I got a six-pack... get in the truck!" Chuck

Thanks, for that! It all looks pretty ugly right now. I forgot for a moment... these are, as you said, 'futures' prices. Thanks, again! Chuck

Thank you Mr Gecko. Competition drives capitalism, not pricing exploits due to disaster. You feel that driving the price up on gas will help our economy? We are going to take a MASSIVE hit this year due to this storm....the effect will take years to recover from. Other items will go up in price by default (more fuel costs = higher grocery costs). Therefore people STOP spending money elsewhere. My entire group of friends have canceled our road trip to N Wisconsin due to fuel costs. Greed is not good. This will have a ripple effect. And yes Andy, I have taken my basic economic courses. ______________________________________ I agree with you! People are out of their homes and businesses, people have died, you've got thieves running the streets with AK-47's looting and what do the oil co's do? Jump on the bandwagon and raise gas prices. You bet there's going to be a trickle-down effect. They are not businessmen, they are opportunists! It's wrong! Chuck

How well, I remember that! Here in West Texas, it was un-believable back in the late '70s early '80s. We had drillin' rigs in here from Alberta and B.C. Cold weather rigs... drillin' oil in the 'desert. The economy was great. Not just Texas... Oklahoma, New Nexico, Colorado, Wyoming and etc. It was nothing, to go to a oilfield related business and be treated to BBQ and free caps. Folks who had 5 - 6 acres, were turning them into mobile home parks. When the 'bust' hit, there were folks left high and dry. You mention 'Boom' now, you'd better run for cover... nobody wants the bust. Yup, Reagan done good! Right! I still want to know, after all the 'hub-bub' over the Alaska pipeline... how much of that oil do WE see? Chuck

Exactly! I don't care if he's on t.v. or not. I watched him 1-time for about 15-minutes and haven't watched him since. Chuck

Hell, I think, it's just the oil companies getting greedy, once again. I guess, what I don't understand is, we have all these oil fields in Texas, Oklahoma and other states, the Alaska pipeline... where does all that oil go? I'm thinking... the Orient? I'd better cool it or this will get (shudder) moved to SC. Chuck

Bad mushrooms? Chuck

That's funny... but true! I like that squirrel. Chuck

Wow! A girl, who likes guns and knives! That, is too cool! Chuck

I heard a comedian say he could help folks save gas! For $40.00, you get a length of rubber hose and a list of names and addresses of 40 people who just filled-up! Chuck

You can make a lot more money by telling people what they want to hear. You'd go broke telling them the truth. _______________________________________ You're absolutely correct and I agree with you. I just can't handle that guy. He reminds me of a snake oil salesman. Chuck

_____________________________________ Excuse me but, that is absolute bull-shit! D'ya think, there just might be a little capitalizing going on? Sheesh. that just sorry! Chuck

I think, the oil companies, have us by the 'valves'! They know, we love our cars and pick-ups and we need their product. Check-out how much the gas station owner makes per gallon... it ain't much. Chuck

$3.00 per gallon here in West Texas. Chuck

_______________________________________ Nothin' wrong with that! Maybe, he wanted a woman with 'experience'! Chuck Pheeew! *Wiping sweat off forehead* I was waiting for that to come! Thx a lot Now I feel mucho better ______________________________________ I'm glad we got that out of the way. The only thin I guess, I ever held against her was, she never seemed to lose that 'look' she had in that Woody Allen movie she did. Other than that, she's not a bad looking woman. Chuck
