Generals, admirals. I’ve had em all in my cab and when they talk, people listen. The top US and Nato commander says the mission in Afghanistan will fail unless more troops are brought in. I hate to remind him but similar predictions were made by Russian generals who actually did bring in more troops.
Ramp Up Now, Stiff Us Later
Prices aren’t high enough for the oil companies. The head of the oil giant Total puts it in perspective though when he says the world could face a shortage of oil because of under investment. In spite of the worldwide recession and lack of demand, he wants oil companies and oil-producing countries like Saudi Arabia, Brazil and Canada to spend money now so they will be ready to open the taps when demand picks up. In other worlds, if you want to screw the consumer properly, you must prepare. Words to live by.
Blockhead Move
There are so many blockhead politicians, I often wonder where they come from. Here’s a source. Dr. Phil recently had a couple on his TV show who confessed to a shoplifting spree across the US and then reselling the loot on e-Bay. Now, they have been indicted on several crimes which could get them a big fine and years in jail. Joe Wilson is not alone.
