Oil Up, Down Down, Bush HurtWhat's the opposite of cowbell? Because this would be that. posted by Ace at 05:00 PM
CommentsGas prices in the south are still fairly ok. I just filled up for about 1.80 gallon. The dow is not something that people really look at. Unless you are invested it doesn't make sense. Even if you are invested it doesn't make sense. The guys on Cavuto say it is not that big of a deal everyone needs to stop whining. They also say that repealing the tax cuts is going to screw the pooch economically. I could be wrong. Posted by: Jennifer on October 22, 2004 05:08 PM
I think people do look at the Dow, and take it to be a proxy for the economy. Which it sort of is. Posted by: ace on October 22, 2004 05:15 PM
Give Bush some cowbells for legislating body armour! here are two lives that were saved!! http://www.thequestingcat.com/blog/archives/00000051.html#comments Just one soldiers opinion that I have seen! I gotta have more cowbell!! Posted by: stuttgartcad on October 22, 2004 05:20 PM
I'd like to get a hold of George Soros' holdings - lol - he bankrupted the largest bank in Englend, but I guess that was currency speculation - lol. Still, O-Dub has got to be involved in this somehow. ;) Posted by: fat kid on October 22, 2004 05:49 PM
Oh yeah, and gas out here in SoCal ranges from 2.50 - 2.80. That's the cheap > expensive range. Owch. Posted by: fat kid on October 22, 2004 05:50 PM
And what do the liberals spend that extra gas tax on? Posted by: Jack on October 22, 2004 09:41 PM
Analysts say that oil prices can take another 10-15% off the Dow, assuming inflation is triggered as oil costs permutate goods and services in the economy. Bad news as well that China wants the oil, and has the booming economy to pay for it and keep prices up since the US has begun de-industrializing. Bad news as well in that the low-carb and outsourcing craze has hit the International Bakers Co. - beloved source of Twinkies, Yodels, Wonder Bread, Ring-Dings and other fine junk food. To survive, 46,000 overpaid American jobs may have to be eliminated and production shifted to Mexico or China - so the wash-outs of the high tech factories in Guandong or Sonora can do something simpler commensurate with their job skills. That will of course free up many more Americans to be forced to improve themselves once they lose their pensions, health care, and jobs at International Bakers. No doubt they will, in the thousands, leave the Twinkie batter vats and get their PhDs in protease molecular folding, invent a carbon strand nanobot they can license to be made in China, and become entrepreneurs selling Pakistani scented candles in their town's 9th scented Pakistani candle shoppe - and soon be fabulously wealthy!! (snicker!) Ford announced to new auto manufacturing lines will be sited in N America without government subsidies. The first Chinese Ford plant, 60 miles outside Beijing, will begin production in 2006. Posted by: Cedarford on October 22, 2004 11:43 PM
The opposite of Cowbell? Probably the kazoo. I can't imagine anyone saying "i got a fever and the only prescription is more kazoo". Posted by: senator philabuster on October 23, 2004 02:24 AM

The "Evel Knievel Experience," a museum dedicated to the famous daredevil, opens in (where else) Las Vegas
Well I guess they could have opened it on the Snake Canyon.
In response to someone asking why the video tape doesn't show Tyler Robinson's face (PS, it does, but it's crappy video so it's blurry):
Candace OwensFor such an "open and shut case" they have thus far provided ZERO evidence of anything outside of a criminal government conspiracy, the likes of which hasn't been seen since the JFK assassination.
More "fedslop" that Cavernous Nostrils is too smart to be taken in by:

And a song with another song as an intro, too: Be it sight, sound, smell, or touch There's something Inside that we need so much The sight of a touch, or the scent of a sound Or the strength of an oak with roots deep in the ground The wonder of flowers to be covered and then to burst up Thru tarmac, to the sun again Boy do they look like absolute dorks.

Doing alright A little jiving on a Saturday night And come what may Gonna dance the day away Jenny was sweet She always smiled for the people she'd meet On trouble and strife She had another way of looking at life

It happened one summer, it happened one time It happened forever, for a short time A place for a moment, an end to dream Forever I loved you, forever it seemed One summer never ends, one summer never began It keeps me standing still, it takes all my will
