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

Oof. Reviewers do not like Scary Movie 6. The criticism I keep hearing is that the movie mistakes a reference for an actual joke. The movie (they say) keeps Key Jangling a reference to another movie (or some other pop culture ephemera) and you expect there to be a joke but nope, the Key Jangle was the joke. Other reviewers say that the promise that "no lines will be uncrossed" is a fake-out, and that the movie is bland and inoffensively corporate.
Whoops! I posted about Dan Goldman losing the NY congressional primary. He might do that, but it won't be tonight -- the primary isn't held until June 23.
One race to keep an eye on: the Levi's heir nepo baby and egregious "Designated Liar" Dan Goldman -- one of the Democrats from a safe district Democrats send out to spread their most indefensible lies -- may actually lose his lower Manhattan/Brooklyn set due to, get this, antisemitism in the Democrat primary electorate.
Antisemitism? In the anti-Nazi Democrat Party? Sounds crazy, I know, but apparently the anti-Nazi Party wants to eliminate Jews. Henry Rosoff Oh my Totenkopf Tattoo, that is a DRUBBING! I'm usually very anti-antisemitism but if the Communist Antisemite Jihadists can pull this one off, Go Communist Antisemite Jihadists, Go!
Democrat Senator Rueben Gallego, who served his wife with divorce papers when she was nine months pregnant so that he could marry his side-piece, counsels us that we should not judge Graham Platner for his infidelity because these things are personal matters, Racists:
Sahil Kapur I like that he says that it's okay that Graham Platner sexted 12 different women within months of marrying the woman to sponge off her because he wasn't then "living a political life" -- the clear meaning being, "We all cheat, we just don't cheat when we're running for office, and he didn't know he was running for office when he was sending dicpics to half the women he ran into." Except he was running: His own wife turned the sexts over to his campaign. And obviously Reuben Gallego didn't let his "political life" get in the way of his extramarital dating life: ![]()
Funny -- if you don't mind clicking on TikTok. "Amy.Pranks.22" set up an AI scam-call screener which replies to a foreign scammer trying to get her bank information with Trumpian bluster. This might be fake because I don't see how a program can respond in real time, but it's funny.

The ULA rocket just launched
Thanks to Joyenz The rocket's enormous engines are fueled by "the volcanic heterosexual lust between James Talarico and his Neighbor With a Uterus 'girlfriend'" I hope Amazon's rocket works better than the Amazon Prime app does as far as allowing people to watch the black and white version of "Spider-Noir" From the CA Post: Thanks to beckster
Just like "Spartacus" Corey Booker, now that James Talarico is running for a higher office, he unveils his previously-unknown "girlfriend" and hooboy, it just so happens she used to work for him, and, get this, likes to "dance the night away" at gay bars
Gee I wonder where they might have met Oh and she's a vegan When Corey Booker needed a "girlfriend," he conjured up known LGBTQ activist Rosario Dawson. How convenient that when these guys need a girlfriend to show off to the normies that just happen to find an activist with a strong history of and interest in Supporting Gay Men But seriously, this James Talarico romance with a Neighbor with a Uterus is a love story for the ages. The passion of their lovemaking is hotter than a blue star with a core of Primordial Sex Atoms created in the Big Bang
And just like that, #PunchANazi became Punch a Ballot for a Nazi
"Teen" charged with five counts of attempted murder after attempting to run down police officers with his car in yet another "teen takeover" permitted by woke racist incompetent Chicago mayor Brandon Johnson
Johnson's response to the "teen takeovers" of streets and businesses that he refuses to make arrests to stop is to go after social media companies for not deleting messages to coordinate the "teen takeovers." Um, they're supposed to find these messages and delete them in real time? It makes no sense but he has to offer an "alternative" plan to just arresting lawbreakers -- which he absolutely refuses to do, saying we "can't arrest our way out" of rampant crime. Recent Comments
