Speaking of things getting stranger and uglier as cash flow evaporates, it looks to me like we are in store for the strangest, ugliest summer since 1968.
Fuel prices (along with skyrocketing food prices) are already causing cash flow problems for the average joe, the war situation looks to be getting very ugly very fast.
Interesting things are about to start happening, and things have a tendency to coalesce in August for some reason.
