The price of gasoline is on the rise.
What else is new you say? What is confounding is the price has increased despite low crude prices — at the moment about $38 per barrel — with demand tanking and supply … well there are currently oil tankers at sea waiting for places to store the oil.
I think AAA public relations head Geoff Sundstrom very aptly puts in perspective this disconnect between natural market forces and the actual price of the end product.
Congratulations Mr. President. Now get to work!
Our next president here in the U.S. of A. in a little more than 12 hours will be a part-white/part-black kid whose mother is from Kansas and dad is from Kenya. He was born in Hawaii, became an adult in Chicago and will live with his beautiful wife and two children in the White House for at least the next four years. So, I think the most apt song for the occasion is Woody Guthrie’s “This Land.” Feel free to join in the chorus.
The President and Mrs. President during an elegant-type moment.
In less than 24 hours George W. will no longer be president. Since I gave him a hard time practically the entire past three years EFD has been around, I thought I’d just sit back and give the blog a big smile in anticipation of no more Bush-Cheney.
