There is a lot of complaining, whining, lying, misleading, and really bad analysis going on right now vis-a-vis high gas prices. The latest I saw (early this morning) was an analysis that shows a lack of parity between the percentage increase in the price of a barrel of oil and the price of a gallon of gasoline at the pump. Look, I am not an economist or an expert on these matters. But rather than just moaning about the price of gas and then uttering some disembodied, meaningless statistic I heard from some dude, I have actually been listening to experts over the last few days. And, as with just about everything, to more I learn about an issue, the more I realize how important it is to study things before making snap judgments or determining a personal policy position. Here's the scoop as I now understand it...

The price of a gallon of gasoline is only partially determined by the price of a barrel of...

See, it could be worse.

Report what???? To whom?

[Sensei Ern]

Pomeranians are the Richard SImmons of the dog world.

[Roccus]

Now that you're caught-up, I gotta go.
Tomorrow all.

Mrs. Suhks is wanting a lap dog. Probably a King Charles Spaniel.

I have two Chesapeake Bay Retrievers for duck hunting. They're very fun, obedient but big. Why she wants a dog with the attention span of a gnat is beyond me.

I wonder if Sean knows?

I guarantee you he does!

Does this mean that John Gibson will get Tony Snow's morning radio slot for Fox News ?

[Fudd Fan]

I'm not as sad as other SNOW-Flakes really, since I didn't get to listen to Tony's show much with work getting in the way. I tried to at least lurk on the thread, tho.

They're all gay and annoying?

[hattend]

See you tomorrow

[Clint N. Suhks]

That was great!

SNOW, SNOW, SNOW!

Rush trying to tell people fuel doesnt cost much. Well, 25 years ago people didnt pay $100 a month for cable television/broadband.

Not sure what you are trying to get at with your post, but if you are not happy with paying $100 for cable, disconnect it or petition your local DEM to get government to pay it for you.

[MNJohnnie]

I don't know much about John, would he be a good replacement for Tony?

[MarkLevinFan]

John Gibson is great, too!

[Allegra]

Ping!

(Sorry...I had to do it. Horns sprouted up on my head...)

[alice_in_bubbaland]

I know not enough workin and too much lurkin......I really should get moving!

[Prophet in the wilderness]

We had a black lab before, great dogs, unfortunately, the dog had to be put down because of cancer.

[mnehring]

I believe BurbankKarl was saying that people complain about a 50c increase in gas prices but don't complain about other increases that, as a percent, far outweigh the 'big oil' gouging..

[MNJohnnie]

Hi Allegra, hope everything is well with you!

[HonestConservative]

"Thanks for the new tag line!"

Doh!

Dirty stinkin' tag line stealer.
