In that same vein, these talking head goofs who are saying "if we have an oil crisis that results in an economic slowdown, tech stocks are the place to be because businesses will still spend money on productivity enhancements" are clueless. That is pure B.S. and anyone who pimps stocks using that mantra should be bitch-slapped. When Saddam rolled into Kuwait, technology was THE LAST place you wanted to be...the carnage was horrifying. Yeah, they rebounded hard when Desert Storm started, but if you owned 'em on the way down, you felt RealMan's girth in your anal cavity. It made last April look like KiddieLand.

Hi Gary!

And what was it, 5 or 6 years ago, wasn't it Algore and his pals who were telling us we'd all be driving electric cars by the year 2000? Cripes, I just went to the gas station today...again, I had to laugh when some of my less-intelligent broker buddies were pushing electric car concept stocks onto their sucker clients...f*ckin' clowns never learn.

Well, my happy arse is at work way early this Saturday morning because those clowns are ordering thousands of electric car charging stations. We build em for a local company here who's orders are now huge compared to what they have been. $2.00 a gallon is working for me! <g>

:0)

Late last year when Crude spiked above 25 for the first time, there were rumors that Slick has already tapped in to the SPR. Given that it was on Slick, I can believe those rumors. After all, he will be first among those whom I consider to be "guilty until proven innocent!" -g-
