Neo-York, Neo-York
This has to be the best line I have ever read in an article I have ever read about how pundits work:
But it also took: Bill O’Reilly. Over the course of six-and-a-half years, Mr. O’Reilly, a former ABC and CBS and local news reporter with a brief porno career as the host of the tabloid Inside Edition, brewed an effective if incendiary cocktail of showmanship, white suburban angst, simmering class and cultural rage—and then mixed in just enough self-deprecation to show he wasn’t an absolute a-hole.

Telegraph | News | Galloway was in Saddam's pay, say secret Iraqi documents
I wish some Yanks could get caught up in this crap all these Euros are caught at. It would give the anti-war crowd some fresh ammo to keep the show rolling toward implosion.

I still have to fisk the quote running under the photo:
"I have never in my life seen a barrel of oil, let alone owned, bought or sold one."
IF THIS IS TRUE, YOU MUST have been removed from the 20th century UNTIL this moment or two in time before you uttered this statement.

You CANNOT have been alive during the OPEC hissy-fit, or had any kind of cognitive existence concerning fossil fuels since the declaration of Earth Day in 1970, to have not encountered the visual representation of an oil barrel in any visual manifestation.

You CANNOT have ever owned, leased or squatted at a domicle since you left your parents' grace if you have never bought a barrel of oil.

The prima facie case is obvious: Unless you can prove every domicile you have ever been the resident of when you were in charge of funding the operation of said residence was bereft of all oil-induced manner of energy generation, you are a schmuck. And, if a semantical game is at play, you are a worse schmuck. I worked in commodities trading, including oil, for over a decade. I never "owned, bought or sold one" either.

Investors, operating in the abstract while suppliers are under the delivery gun, deal in "futures"...the beasts gamble on where the market will move. No beast has any intention of accepting delivery of any contract they currently have in hand. They are just playing odds.

As a newly ensconced resident of a privately owned domicle, the single biggest advice I could ever give anyone looking to delve into this realm is to learn how the oil price comes flowing from the ether into your basement.

The moment I said, "you're selling spot and buying after-Iraq market months," while discussing pricing plans with a local oil company rep, he shifted back in the kitchen chair and said, "We base are prices--"
ME: "On the Merc."
REP: "Well, our cap prices reflect--"
ME: "Shit. Look, I can but the fucking oil just as easy as you. I can buy a four month contract and sit on it until October. The only problem with that is delivery and storage."

NYPOST.COM Sports: THEN THERE'S BERNIE By JOEL SHERMAN
Money qoute: When Toronto manager Carlos Tosca was asked if Williams is scary enough to work around, he shook his head and explained why in the one word "dangerous" before adding, "He's lurking like the shark in ‘Jaws.' "

Woo hoo!

Bernie healthy and his head is straight. Posada (5 home runs) is healthy and has no starting pitcher (Él Duqué) he needs to worry about, so he can concentrate on his defensive responsibilities. Godzilla is the Real Deal, a solid player who brings a steady glove to left field in addition to the Bomber bat he was trumpeted to be bringing to the Bronx. Tthe kid at short is filling in admirably for Jeter while the shoulder heals. And a member of the S.I. Yankees is playing in the show!

Chicago Tribune | Loss of McDonald's contract puts small printer in danger
Corporate Assholes strike again. No, not McDonald's--the print shop. They had all their eggs in one basket, and they didn't own that basket. McDonald's may be acting like a bully when it comes to the individual franchises, but the article doesn't say anything other than the printer's side of the story.

I've been in this boat. I used to have a pretty good cashflow doing desktopper stuff before everyone and their children had access to ink jet and laser printers and scanners. But that train shipped out, so I had to adapt. so does Robert Bruce. Hell, he's got the website mentioned in the article, so he should have thought about using it globally, not just for mickyD.
