LOL. Mick should have, being a far superior capitalist to Dubyette, charged him a hefty (using, say, the Capital One or MBNA fee structure or, say, using the United Healthcare premium increase schedule) profit for the rooms.

You know, if we can have $5/gallon gasoline in this country starting this summer and continuing indefinitely, it may be the only way to get the American public off of its collective fat rears and pay attention.

$5/gallon gasoline would kill SUVs and Hummers, provide investment into alternative sources, cut off all sympathy for ME despots, destroy the GOP for another 40 years, make BUSH a four letter word (we're going to have to substitute 'little tree' in mixed company), stop the spread of depressingly vinyl burbs and maybe even slow down global warming.

Hmmmm. Maybe we should be hoping for $5/gallon gasoline as THE CURE.

Maybe we can even get back to having airline travel be an occasional luxury instead of cattle car time. I heard, is this true (?), that some airlines are toying with the idea of standing room on planes.
