I have always thought a giraffe was an elegant animal
that's a lot of neck to scratch...
mailed off check for 1200 bucks for fuel oil, prepay for 300 gallons.
there is no reason for it to cost this much except for greed.
of course that applies to our prescription drug industry also.
a fair price for the fuel oil ought to be around 3 dollars a gallon. The current profit level of
our refineries is obscene. great stocks to own, big paybacks to investors.
We need a glut of oil some how, drive the cost down, and not send so much to China and elsewhere.
2nd and 3rd world demand for fuel ever increasing, we are all competing for world resources.
super cheap oil is no bargain either. Look at Venezuela. whole country has economically collapsed.
there is cost per barrel and cost per gallon. Whole lot of games played to get from one to the other.
I'd be happy at 3 bucks a gallon.
which I guess sounds laughable to David in Hawaii or to our Canadian friends
who seem to get taxed on fuel even more.
we started off in campfires with gathered wood we found to keep warm.
looks like we are still hunting for the best fuel.
for four bucks a gallon, what else could I use? Two buck Chuck?
not sure my Beckett burner would digest left over cooking oil well...
