SAME OLD, SAME OLD

The headline on the Associated Press wire this afternoon (Tuesday) says oil prices have closed at a new record, above one hundred twenty-nine dollars a barrel. I don't buy my oil by the barrel, it's more by the quart, enough to keep my vehicles engine from freezing up.
Given that I'm not sure I really care a whole lot about the oil prices; I guess I should but I don't. I can't do much about those prices for they are controlled by people who deal in shiploads of crude compared to my few quarts every so often. So, I'm not interested when crude hits a new high, that's not news.
Oil prices dropping, now that is news,
