Ah to be young again

Thanks to this week's Diggnation I've discovered a drinking game that I wish we could have played back in the day.

Check it out, Wisest Wizard, imagine combining a Fantasy RPG turn based game with drinking beer.

G0-Karts Rule

Donnie is back with another You Suck at Photoshop....Seems like he's found a real keeper.

The numbers game

This article paints a very grim picture for Hillary's campaign. Basically it says that even if she wins EVERY remaining primary by 10-20 points she still can't catch Obama in "standard" delegates. If she was to actually do this, which she won't, then the race would be decided by the superdelegates. That scenario is the last thing that the Democratic party wants...for the race to be determined by this questionable process would look pretty bad to the public.

The funny thing is that most of the major media outlets are squawking about how she is back in the race and she back on track to win. More proof of just how far up the Clinton ass the big media companies are. They seem to think they're the Kennedys version 2.0. Other than the infidelity, I don't see a similarity.

Even she knows that there's a good chance that she can't win. That's why she has started talking about the so called "Dream Ticket" of Obama and Clinton as running mates. The problem is that there's no way that he'll take a VP position and Hillary already had two terms as Bill's VP.

Yawn

An entire day of Stumbling and all for naught. This picture is the most interesting thing I found all day.

The Iwo Jima of our generation.

Great stuff

Now this is a guy that can rant! What he says about Porsche and VW is pretty enlightening stuff.

Hey drunky!

I stumbled upon this site. That reminded me of one of my favorite Kids In The Hall Sketches ever.

Girl Drink Drunk.

Disturbing images

I think people that dress up there pets in costumes have some kind of weird personality flaw. I mean sure they're cute but still somehow disturbing.

A must read

Here's a great article about the world's oil reserves that was written by someone that really seems to know what he's talking about. So why is oil selling for $100+ a barrel if our supply isn't nearly as bad as the media would lead you to believe? This article touches on it but doesn't talk about it.

One reason is that 90% of the "conventional" oil still in the ground is controlled by state run oil companies. So when whack jobs like Hugo Chavez take all the money they make from there large oil reserves and then use that money on social programs it causes problems. Now I agree that it is good that he is trying to improve the conditions for the poor in his country but at the price of potentially not re-investing in his oil production. That will have global repercussions. Let's not even talk about other places like Nigeria....disaster. Unless these companies spend the money on the oil reclamation equipment like the Saudis have then they'll end up leaving half of the oil in the ground.

The other reason has nothing to do with oil companies. People get all bent out of shape when they see how much profit a company like Exxon is making but guess what....Exxon sells the oil but has very little to do with setting the price. That is left up to speculators on primarily the New York and London futures markets. That means that the price of oil is only vaguely related to the actual availability of oil or the demand for that oil. The price is "regulated" by people that have a vested interest in buying the oil cheap and then having the price rise....seriously. Does that sound like a good idea? Isn't that what Enron got in trouble for, inflating the prices of energy futures for their own profits and the benefit of their traders?

So why is no one crying for this to change? Because the oil companies are huge political contributors and are flush with cash they can throw money at the only people that could change the way the current oil futures market is regulated. So there, I guess you can still blame Exxon.
